Don't Hate Me 'Cause I'm Beautiful! LOL

Ok, ok, before you all start moaning and groaning again, would I really be me if I didn't change my avatar whenever I had a serious mood swing?
Well would I?
Of course not!
Actually people I have changed it because I've grown up!
It's true, I swear!
I have decided that in shedding the soon to be ex, it's time that I became serious about my life, and that the new path I am about to embark upon, be one of maturity, stability and total self reliance. No more men trying to change me, control me or convince me that I'm an hysterical, hormonally challenged female that needs a good put down to keep in her place.
The pretty blues in my new avatar are a symbol of the great pond I hope to cross soon, lapping at the shores of my beloved England.
The fact that it says, 'I've lost my marbles', is to reassure you all that I will never lose my sparks of insanity. LOL
So who's taking bets on how long THIS one will last? ROFL

It is saturday now so I am betting you will have changed it again by the 20th. what do I win if I am right?
I look forward to you embarking on this path of maturity, stability and total self reliance. I know you can do it. I've been amazed you have been the way you have been for so long in your relationships. Look out world cause here you come.
Those poor Brits aren't going to know what hit em.

Oh I Have no doubt that you will accomplish great things from here on out. I have total faith in you Sparks. You mental state is never in question either. Lord knows your as mad as a hatter, but that is the motivation is it not? You have to be insane to over come what you have thus far. I have a front row seat to your metamorphoses, that cocoon of a prison is breaking open a little more each day. From what I can see what is emerging is more beautiful than anyone can imagine.
As far as you AV I give it tops 3 weeks.

You change you avatar more often than I change my bras!! But this change is do much for the best of reasons. Not sure about the maturity tag though. We should be growing older disgracefully my dear - bugger maturity, leave that to the 30 somethings. I hope that you will let this man at least manipulate you as far as the odd book shop, cream tea, pub lunch etc and let him meet you at the airport when you arrive!! I promise that will be the extent of it though. I have a hard enough time with my own hormones. LOL.

You'd better the welcoming committe P1ke! Good heavens I throw myself off the Cliffs of Dover if you weren't!!!!!!
As for the maturity thing - I rather had 'gravity' and the force it has expended on the old bod in mind when I wrote that! LOL But then again - I've enough 'disgracefullness' in me to still play with YOUR hormones! ROFL Thank you nova!

Well, it seems we keep our avatars about the same time. Like my new one?? I guess I'm feelin froggy today. Actually I was just tired of looking at my own face so up close...but anyway.
You are a wonderful person Spark, and I'm glad you plan to grow up a bit, without loosing your identity. We could all learn a bit from you...

LOL No bets being made on that by me - you would deliberately do it when I wouldn't win when I did! lol I have to confess that I was a bit confused at first but we all know how easy it is to confuse me! You have been very strong and if it anything to do with me I would say you can change your avatar as often as you like or as often as your mood changes if you like - but you better be quick! lol
By the way I found some marbles - are they yours? Do you want me to return them? Hugs xxx

Your new avatar is beautiful and have a cooling effect on eyes, spark, as have you on mind, even though it's through insanity sparks! :-)
I wish you well as you set yourself for a new day of the rest of your life, as you say it, for more maturity, stability and self reliance. May you have the peace, happiness and profundity of the ocean you are so eager to cross, spreading your sparks on your way. But, keep a good stock of your sparks lest you have no more left when your feet touch the shores on the other side of the pond, LOL!

I like the new marbley you, yes. But what is this about growing up? Surely not? If you are getting serious about your life is this the end of sparkofinsanity, will you soon be changing your name to fit your new grown up you? Something like insanitynomore or something equally as grown up, like iamallgrownup? Well I for one seriously hope not, this place would definately not be the same!!!
But seriously though, I am glad that you are sorting things out in your life, and I hope that everything works out for you and you are totally happy in your new independant role, I am sure that you will be, take care xx

Good for you Spark you are getting rid of
the x and getting a new self, whee thats
liberating for sure. You do not need a man
to measure your self worth by and you know
you are not hysterical or hormonally challenged
Now its time for you to be yourself and do
all the silly fun things you want without
an x to plague you lol

I love it! It is a warm blue colour. Very relaxing. Maybe you should treat yourself to a trip to BC first, before moving. We'll meet up there and have a party first. EH?

BC is incredibly expensive otherwise I'd be there in a heartbeat. It's very English you know! LOL
And of course, we will see each other before I go to England - and aftewards too, because you'll be running a sheep farm there within a couple of years of my moving, I just know it. LOL

I wasn't planning a trip there......yet. But I would for you.
And don't say 'never'. I hate that word. Leave your options open. I think it would be a good place for you to live. The sea air, and the happy people, lots of MJ around, and tolerance for it, too. It is a slower paced lifestyle.
But England is nice, too. Wherever you want to go, darlin'.
We'll think of something soon for us to meet up again before you go.
But if I did go to the West coast, you KNOW I would stop in for a visit with you, FOR SURE. It would be one of the highlights of the trip. You know that.

Excuse me - but where and when was hate mentioned? This whole discussion was tongue in cheek and there was/is no hate at all involved. I see that you are new here, and I appreciate that - so a word of warning. If you are going to respond to a discussion, make sure you read it properly and respond appropriately.
Welcome to mylot and good luck.

Who the heck are you and what do you want here?
If you want to respond appropriately to a discussion, why don't you read it first.
This is a category called "messing with your mind". It means, fooling around, making fun, and general goofy-ness.
So please treat it that way and don't inject 'hate' into it.
