 		some interesting quotes about keith:

Quote:
I spent a lovely spa weekend with my boyfriend, Keith. Yes, ladies, my man enjoys a mani/pedi as much as I do! I know, I'm lucky.


Quote:
Halloween is Keith's and my favorite holiday


Quote:
Keith was acting kind of odd at the or...chard, though--kept looking around and sniffing the air. I couldn't smell anything but yummy apples!


Quote:
But this weekend I won't miss it as much because my boyfriend, Keith, says he has something to tell me. Could he be popping The Question?


Quote:
Not only did he NOT pop the big Q, he disappeared for the entire weekend! He called me last night to apologize, said he got "caught up" in something. I guess I'll forgive him, since he sent some beautiful flowers to the office this morning!


Quote:
Yes, it's a great way for the dog to get out of the dog house! Of course I forgave him--I can't stay mad when I look into those big, brown puppy dog eyes of his


Quote:
Keith's favorites are bunnies. He says they are "delicious." He's such a kidder!


And a quote on pinterest about him with some purple glitter lips:
Quote:
Oh Keith would have a fit if I kissed him with these! Heh, I might have to try. Smile

 		Fun with Loup Garou
Don't forget the end of the Halloween quote:

Quote:
He literally growls with excitement when we go into planning mode, so cute.


Time to stock up on these?

 		Oh, I do hope they pull this off. A fresh breath of werewolf in a flood of slendermen and rampaging artificial intelligences Smile

Has anyone found a way to get involved yet?

 		an answer to my query to get closer to keith..

Quote:
"I have tried to get Keith to sign up for Facebook, but so far he's resisted. And I'm pretty sure I know what's bothering him--cold feet! Maybe this weekend I'll make a romantic little dinner for two, and he'll finally get up the nerve. Smile"


maybe we will get to know something more this weekend?

 		Hope it is. No sparkly vampires in sight. Let's let the werewolves win one this time - yes? I'm going with the werewolf theme here - Amandel is scary arg-smart and if Amandel says it is so, it is so.

And...didn't I remember something about "good cheer" from the argfest reports this year? Comments from anyone who went...?

 		i have been following this one, slightly in the shaddows, i messaged her the other day, just to see if i could push it along a little bit..

i pretended i had some man trouble and the response was such...

The Office of Good Cheer
Dear Angela,

Of course it's ok to message me! I'm sorry I didn't see this before I left the office on Friday--I was in a bit of a hurry to get home and get things started for my big dinner date (more on that later!)

First of all, I would recommend being kind to yourself. One thing we all need in this world is kindness, and it starts at home. Things may not be going great for you right now, but that doesn't mean there's some personal defect that will keep you from ever being cheerful again! We all go through these cycles of emotion, happy/sad/happy, etc., and just keeping that knowledge in your heart that this is a temporary dip and things will get better can help a lot! Even I get down and sad sometimes, but I just "fake it until I make it" as they say, and I can shake it off eventually!

How wonderful to work from home--you get to surround yourself with all your favorite things, and listen to your music as loud as you want to! Take a break and put something pretty in your workspace-a picture or poster on the wall, or a little piece of pottery on your desk or table, or someone's photograph. Artistic people need to have beautiful things around them to inspire them and feed their souls. Make sure you have good lighting, too.

I'd also recommend getting out of your house from time to time as well. Sitting at home can be fun and comfortable, but you need to be active too. Even if you just take a walk down the block and back, the exercise and fresh air will help keep your spirits up. Plan for longer excursions like a museum or gallery show too. Plus, you never know who you might run into when you're out and about!

I'm not sure if I'm the best person to ask for advice on men, though! I'm certainly not having much luck with mine at the moment. However, I think that men are very simple beings who want the same things we all do--kindness, respect and compassion among them. Just be yourself and be honest and there will come a time that someone's heart resonates with yours.

Best of luck with your journey to cheerfulness. I'm rooting for you!

Hugs,
JC


so as you can see nothing much helpful there.. slow slow slowwwwwwwwwwwwww

tho i would like one of those bedazzled staplers... perhaps i shall message and ask!

Oooh...a perky werewolf game. Sounds interesting! She's mentioned that Keith (her bf) asked her to change the banner. Only thing that really jumps out between the two is the eye colour...it's blue in the photo banner & brown on the cartoon banner. Any significance? It might be nothing but I read on a wolf anatomy page that:
Quote:
Wolves are usually born with deep blue eyes which lighten and then gradually fade into the adult eye color over the next six to ten weeks. A mature Wolf's eyes are often amber/brown or gold, but also commonly come in hues of brown, gray, yellow, and green. It is interesting to note that puppies are born with blue eyes, while mature Wolves do not retain blue as an eye color. Huskies often have blue eyes, and because of this people think there must be blue eyed Wolves as well, but this isn't true. If you see a Wolf with blue eyes then he or she is likely a Wolf-hybrid and not a full-blooded Wolf.

Just seems odd that the eyes are different when everything else (except the excess hair) is the same in the two banners...


...edited to add...
The post it note pic has been removed (presumably at Keith's request...she mentions he's asked her to remove some photos...aside from the post it note one, what else has gone?). Wonder why? One thing that came to mind about the Pinot (Helfrich Pinot Gris) was that it is made in the Alsace region in France. The language of Alsace is Alsation. Queue yet more dog/wolf/werewolf comparisons...not to mention that of Reynard the Fox, whose mythos comes from the same region...

 		I think this is my first post on here! Very cool. Smile
I'm the Kurt that is chatting on there with her, too. I'm still not sure what to make of this. It would be amusing if this wasn't even an ARG and we are reading too much into it. Very Happy

The thought had occurred to me, that this might not be an arg :S
