Finish the sentence: "I love it when...."

[Faithfulservant]

I love it when my 15 yo daughter wants to hang out with me.

[InLove]

I love it when I am surprised on the "I Love It When..." thread by posts I somehow overlooked for a long time, and then I discover them right when I need something uplifting to read! (How did I miss these last two posts for so long??)

Phyllis: With a nod to the Travelocity Gnome--don't ya just love smelly cheese?

Faithful: I know what you mean! I miss the days hanging out with fifteen-year-olds. But last weekend, my former 15rs came and took me to lunch at Joe T Garcia's. The years have passed, but the fun and love remains.

InPeace,
InLove

I love it when my son comes to me for answers, even when I don't know them. It gives us an opportunity to talk, and an opportunity to try to find them together.

He turned 10 last week.

DITTO! And I love it when they (my two) come home from Iraq and surpise me, and say "I got three weeks R&R Dad!"

Oh, that's great, Josh! Enjoy your time together. As Cage and others here have noted, the opportunity to be together with our children is such a blessing. I am always amazed at how much they have to offer. I know you and your sons will be having some heartfelt exchanges, Q. Give them our love, please. And grab every second of blessing there!

InPeace,
Much Love,

I love it when i dream of the good times; when it really feels like i still have appreciation and love in my life, where i still mean somethin to someone and they mean the same,.. or even more to me.
When i wake, thats then i realise how happy i was and how much further i should have bent to make it all last. How much i relied on all that to keep me sain and how stupid i was to think happiness like that comes along more often than once.... but i still live in hope that it does.

And therein lies much of the answer. This journey is full of twists and turns. We may not fully know what lies around each corner, but we know what we have brought with us. And I truly believe those dreams can tell us a great deal.

Chin up, mason! (Love the smiley avatar)

I love it when my conversation partner feels comfortable enough with me that s/he will open up but not enough to be a "wangstmuffin" (term I got from some RPG people I've encountered.)

I also love it when people let me know they've learned something from me, even inadvertantly on my part.

Hey there Phyllis

Um...I love it when I check every dictionary and lingopedia I've got and some I don't, only to find I have to come back and ask: HUH?

(Does not compute, sputter, cough)

Curiousity can be a very curious thing.

I love it when Inlove make a post on any thread I'm interested in.

I love it when people ask legitimate questions when they truly wish to understand unfamiliar terms.

"Wangstmuffin" comes from the word "angst" (the psych term, not the measurement.) "Wangst" is so far beyond "angst" that you would have to ask Nick the Theosophist to fly the distance between using his "day-job vehicle", with a refueling stop somewhere during the trip.

Oops, Nick the Pilot, not Nick the Theosophist. Please hand me the linguini that's soaking over there. Thank you. *commences the twenty lashes*

Thank you, pfw--you are very kind. I like reading your posts, too.

Phyl, thanks for the explanation. And I think linguini lashing is too harsh. After all, the Pilot and the Theosophist are by self proclamation one and the same.

I have to admit something, though. All these "--osophies" and "--ologies" of late are twisting my tongue up in knots! Please don't anyone take this the wrong way, but am I the only one with a strange desire to sift thistles?

I realize this may earn me both the comfy chair and the pasta fine (or is that the fine pasta?) But sometimes a woman's just gotta say what a woman's gotta say.

InPeace,

Nope, not for you. I got this dandy hand cranking machine that allows you to make lots of pasta. You will make a ton. (6 through 8) in grade, plus linguini (standard 8). Most of it will be wheat, but one quarter will be wheat/spinach mixed.

well...get moving! (lol)
