Laural 2000

[Ezzy]

Well congratulations Laural on your 2000 post.

ps.I know she has not posted it yet when I typed this but I had to go to work and did not want to miss sending my congratulations.

 

[Laurel]

OMG! I didn't even notice! What a loser I am...

I wish I had something profound to say, but right now I'm feeling a bit downtrodden and depressed. I've been working hard on Literotica and other Literotica-related projects and my freelance stuff 12 hours a day 7 days a week for months (with a day off here & there) and I'm quickly running out of go-juice. The good news is that the script will be ready to go within the month - that's what's keeping me from keeling over.

I come to the BB to relax and have fun... and I do! But lately I've been shooting myself in the foot by letting the negative stuff get in the way of my enjoyment of you people. One of my big fatal flaws is my desire to make sure everyone's happy - when someone is less than so, I take it as a weakness in myself. I need to realize that i cannot control anyone's happiness but my own. I can only do my best to answer your questions and concerns - for me to run around putting out fires, smoothing feathers, and settling disputes is not only ineffective most of the time but very, very hard on me.

These are tough times here at Literotica. The story backlog is huge, the mail backlog is large, and there's not enough time in the day to do everything I want to do on the site. By the end of the year, we'll not only have the scripts in place, but also the site will be redesigned and a couple of really cool projects (TBA later) will be up and running like crazy. So while it's tough on all of us now, I promise you that things WILL get better.

Imagine a day when there's less than 24 hours between story submission and posting on the site. Imagine having your BB profile and your Literotica profile being the same. Imagine IM'ing other BB from the Bulletin Board. Imagine a way better search function, daily updated voting scores for ALL stories...all this and more is on the way.

Like I said, I wish I could've said something profound, but I babbled instead. Since my first 2000 posts were babbling, it's appropriate that this one be babbling, too.

Thanks, everyone. You've made my dreams come true.

((((((bigggggg huggsies for Laurel))))))))))

I wish there was somethin I can do to help hun. I can't get a job to save m' life. I sit at home all day long with my eyes crossed. If I could send you some of my free time, I so dearly would.

Muff

 

[Laurel]

Hey, I'm only at 1966! Poop! Ah well...when I DO get to 2000, remember this thread...lol

 

[Nicole]

LMAO @ Laurel.

Hey look it was a nice babble anyway. The thoughts were there right??

Good Luck Laurel and like I said in the Lotto Thread, if I win I will buy you and Manu a well deserved Vacation.

Something to hold onto anyway ... on NO maybe you like holding onto Manu

Congrats on 1967 Posts Laurel LOL

 

[Laurel]

Woo hoo! Here's 1968!

 

[Ezzy]

I know but I'll be at work for the next 11 hours or so so I just wanted to jump the que. (((((((( Hugs)))))))

[Laurel]

I should delete that, shouldn't I? Shame on me!

Okay, so what should I do for my 2000 post?

 

[Laurel]

Ezzy - ((smooch!))

 

[Nicole]

STOP THAT.

That is offically classed as cheating around here *Chuckling*

 

[Nicole]

I should delete that, shouldn't I? Shame on me!

Okay, so what should I do for my 2000 post?

I am sure that the men wouldn't disagree ..... Run around the thread naked .... alright geesh, It was only a suggestion.

 

[Laurel]

Don't you think enough people are leaving the BB already?

 

[Nicole]

LMFAO Silly Billy.

That's not cause of you. If you do I will

Oh hang on I do that daily now don't I???

 

[CreamyLady]

Congratulations in advance, or behind or whatever; I'm not wearing my reading specs and I can't read the number!

Thank you for the site, and the encouragement, and that strange flaw in you that makes you want everyone to be happy. Believe me -- even when we are miserable, we are happy to be here.

Hmm. That made a lot more sense in my head; it really did.

Anyway, thank you and congratulations, and I have one question -- what are you going to do with yourself when things are running smoothly?

 

[Laurel]

I dunno - sleep, maybe?

I hope y'all know - the reason I'm so durn busy is that the site's a success, and I don't want to sound like I'm bitching about it. I wouldn't trade any of that for the world. It just bums me out when I can't get email answered fast enough, stories edited & posted soon enough...But the fact that I get such an overwhelming number of submissions - and an overwhelming amount of positive email - that I can't keep up is fucking incredible to me. You people rock my world.

 

[Xander]

LAUREL

*singing with Freddie Mercury imitation* We will we will ROCK YOU!!!

 

[Svedish_Chef]

Hey Laurel... you pay my ticket and find me somewhere to sleep I will slave for you till Lit is perfect! (Maybe not a bright statement... oh well)

DA chef

 

[Never]

Following what the Chief said a volunteer 'whatever' might ease your load a bit.

Madam: "One of my big fatal flaws is my desire to make sure everyone's happy - when someone is less than so, I take it as a weakness in myself."
I'm happy. Congratulations.

 

[Bonnie Wee Lassie]

Early cangrats for Laurel. Hmmmm can't wait to hear what you have planned for the 2000th post.

 

[Expertise]

I'm hoping that "something spectacular" that Bonnie referred to will be nude pics.

I was hoping that this thread was your announcment that you had thrown your hat into the political ring.

In Laurel in 2000! That should be your motto/bumper sticker

Sorry I am just friggin' sophmoric today.

 

[Laurel]

You know, I've always wanted a motto, and there it is: In Laurel in 2000. Who knew? It's better than "Ass, Grass, or Gas - No One Rides For Free".

Chef - you da man. As soon as I can scrape up the cash to fly you over, you can become Literotica's first slave (besides Manu and I, that is).

Never - thanks.

Xander - I dunno why, but the visual of you and Freddy Mercury doing a duet cracks me up.

Bonnie - I probably won't have anything too cool for my 2000. If I can string it out long enough, maybe we can launch the new scripts by then. No pics, much less nudes, though - that wouldn't be that spectacular, I'm afraid, lol.

 

[Bonnie Wee Lassie]

Well I am sure it will be great whatever you do!
But no nudes awwww sucks to be me! LOL

 

[Rosebud]

for you Laurel http://www.wotch.com/images/promos/users/flower/roses.gif and for your 2000 post i think you and manu should post a naked pic of yourselves (but you don't have to show your faces, i know you don't want to)just give us tits dick and ass

 

[Wizard]

[Rosebud]
