afansince74 Posted February 21, 2005 Share Posted February 21, 2005 Sorry to post in the 'Womens' section, but I thought this would be the place to go for help. Some of you know my wife, MagicWand, and know that she's my 'silent partner' here. She's never been in any kind of forum or chat before. She's interested in what goes on here, but she won't commit to any time to get on the board. In the few times she has posted stuff, I've always been there, it's usually short, and she's always unsure of exactly what to type. I thought if some of you would 'encourage' her along a bit, I might get her to start logging on here, just a few times a week to start, maybe. I don't know. If she just got a little involved, she might get hooked like the rest of us! I know we can't force her to be here, but some 'gentle proding' (from someone other than me) might get her 'into it' enough that she might hang around more often! Anyway, I just wanted to throw that out here for anyone who might have any other suggestions for me, or who might want to 'talk' to her here and encourage her! She WILL be reading this... I will force her to do at least that! (Yea... big talk for the big man when she's not around ..... we all know she'll read what she wants when she wants! Damn, this dress is tight... wonder how my pants fit on Susan?!! ) Any help by any of the many wonderful New World Women here on TRF would be most appreciated. You guys are great, and I'd love to see MagicWand with that banner on her posts one day. Thanks, in advance! Bryan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

neilpeart_gal Posted February 21, 2005 Share Posted February 21, 2005 Your dear wife needs to come about this on her own. You sort of can't force her. But once she realizes how fun (aka insane) we all are, how can she resist?? I can learn to resist........... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GhostGirl Posted February 21, 2005 Share Posted February 21, 2005 Susan...take your time, dearie, and decide if this seems fun to you. THAT being said....COME ON, G'FRIEND!!! Just a little over a year ago, I had never even heard of internet bulletin boards. My lust, erm...INTEREST in Neil Peart surged after reading his book, and I was hooked. Now I've made friends that I'll have for the rest of my life. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MagicWand Posted February 22, 2005 Share Posted February 22, 2005 Hey there everyone! I love all your posts. You are all so funny. And by the way Dweez, I am drugged and sitting in a chair. And I must say, GG, that I too think Neil is a hottie!! See the thing is Bryan (AFS74) is on this thing ALL THE TIME after he gets home from work. No, no, just kidding. He is fantastic. I am usually a pretty shy person at first. Till I get to know ya, then I am okay. HMMMM... thinking what to write here..... Lets see, how about hobbie type stuff. I Love romance novels , selling stuff on Ebay and cooking. Bryan and Lauryn, my 5 yr. old, are my life. Speaking of AFS74, do you all know that I used to be married to HIS best friend of 25 years, and when he died, Bryan and I had some wonderful phone calls and we fell in love 700 miles away from eachother. Then he turned down a huge raise and new truck at work and moved here (AR) to be with me. Yipee me I promise to write more on the board, I promise to write more on the board,I promise to write more on the board,I promise to write more on the board,I promise to write more on the board,I promise to write more on the boardI promise to write more on the boardI promise to write more on the boardI promise to write more on the board this will make my honey happy.

How am I supposed to do that? GG, how does YOUR hubby 'compete' with Neil?? I think I might need your assistance here! I'm only asking you because you started this! Oh well, if she's gonna drool, I guess I can't complain since it is, after all, one of the boys! Ahh heck, I ain't worried about "the little drummer boy" there! I mean hey, I may not be able to play the drums like Neil (or ANYBODY, for that matter!), but I have no problems "keeping the rhythm" if you know what I mean! And thanks everybody! I think Susan was a little embarrassed that I started this thread, but you guys came through, as I knew you would. She replied to a few other posts before she had to log off, but was laughing and saying stuff like, "Oh, I gotta read this..." and stuff, so it's a good start. I really couldn't have done it without all your help! Now we'll see if she comes in here all by herself, like while I'm at work or something. BTW... nice "intro" post honey!
