@audrewuh getting to meet you, elle, swazzle, buddy, brisox, liv and buggle was the highlight of my year. 

All you ladies all mean the fucking world to me, and I you all!!!

@Amapola14 for the kind words - you have been my favorite newb in a while!

Don't have time for a list right now as I only have a couple of mins before the girl gets home from school, but I love all you girls. I don't miss working in a big office mostly because I know I have a huge group of awesome ladies to chat about anything and everything with whenever I want to.

P.S. What ever happened to Elle?

I love that this thread was started. I am not going to follow rules.

@Amapola14: Thank you for all your kind words and support. I really enjoy the fact that you deliver feedback in a way thats constructive, and that you take time to hear people out. 

@Phira: You advice is always solid. I always like reading what you have to say because I can often apply your feed back within different relationships I encounter IRL. 

@BethSmiles: I love your responses. You are very kind in the way you deliver them, and it appears that you are very sympathetic to others. 

@Loves2Shop4Shoes: I love how blunt you are. You aren't afraid to speak your mind, and I wish I could be more like you at times.

@Liv, you are fucking awesome, and I wish you'd post more

 @bubbles, You have held up longer than I would have if I posted and received similar responses. That being said, you are extremely strong, and courageous. You have been through a shit ton, and all this time you have managed to hold your head high. I hope that in the future you will receive counseling and that it will make you realize how awesome you can be/are. 

Last but not least to the entire NEY community: I love posting here.  Even though topics can be heated, and not everyone sees eye to eye with each other all the time, I really enjoy the fact that our community seems to have this unspoken bond with each other. Whether posters know each other IRL, or just communicate with each other through this forum, I love that everyone is here to lend a listening ear/eyes, and provide constructive feedback.

Thank you @bride2b71614! I am quite a fan of you too! I think the thought and consideration you put into your posts is excellent and they are always thorough and constructive. You just seen like someone who is a good mentor and role model, and I think that's great.

Seriously! Work sends me to Vegas and I miss out on all the good stuff. I heart you ladies, so I'll share too.

@loves2shop4shoes I love your boldness and outspoken nature! Your fun, beautiful, and a master of all things makeup. I'm so glad you moved to Chicago so we can play makeup and drink insane amounts of wine together. I promise there will be more fruit dip.

@buggle2 I'm so glad you bussed it to our Chicago G2G. Your smart and funny, and kept the night so much fun I missed an entire party. Let's do this again.

@cschiano You may cheer for the wrong football team, but I have always enjoyed your posts. Your smart and witty. I will be so sad if you move to DC and I won't have gotten to meet you!

@minskat30 You are freaking adorable. I love how wine brings out your feistiness. You are consistently looking for the best qualities in each poster and offer such sweet advice.

@cu97tiger I think you read my mind in that post. You always have the best advice, and genuinely want to support others. It's an amazing quality. I look forward to the day we can have a chat in person.

And all the rest of you @neyers, I heart you all. You make my days so entertaining. I will be sadz here in Vegas because I won't be able to lurk that much. So try to keep the rest of the good stuff until I'm home this weekend!

I'm late to this and I'm not doing just 3. I'm a wild child. 

@BriSox81 - You have become one of my best friends IRL. You make me giggle and you're one of the strongest people I know. I love our Sisser-brainz and how we're always both thinking the same thing at the same time. Thank you for telling me where baby carrots come from. 

@buddysmom80 - You are hysterical and so genuinely kind. You always put other people first and I really admire that about you. I miss our summer obsession so much. Also, you give me midnight orgasm cupcakes and for that, I'm eternally grateful.

@beanbot2002 - You are hands down one of the best moms I know. You make me laugh and you made damn good Mexican food. Lucy misses you. 

@Sakalicious - Oh my little Brown Sak! You are one of the sweetest and smartest people I've ever met in my life. I love our guac dates and snuggle sessions and your husband has nice ankles. 

@LivLeighton - I am so glad I've gotten to know you over the past couple years on and off the board. You've been through more shit than anyone should ever have to and yet you're still happy and upbeat. I truly wish I could be more like that. I can't wait to twerk with you this weekend! 

@Amapola14 - You're my favorite not-so-new-newb. Thank you for being normal and for sticking around! 

@bethsmiles - You're easily one of my favorite advice-givers on the board. You're respectful but honest and I really admire that about you (especially because I'm not nearly as good with my words). 

@lennonkdc - I am really glad I got to meet you IRL. You're kind and very respectful of other people's feelings but you're honest and get your point across.  

@audrewuh - I can't wait until you live in the North East so I can see you more often because I need more of you in my life. I never thought I'd be friends with someone who was super religious (since I'm the exact opposite) but you showed me that there are people who don't shove their beliefs down other's throats. You're selfless and I hope that has rubbed off on me at least a little bit. 

@CocoBellaF - I think it's awesome that you're never afraid to speak your mind even when your opinion is not in line with the majority. I appreciate hearing a viewpoint that's different from my own especially because you present it in such a respectful way. So, thank you for that

@Swazzle:  I am usually very afraid, but I guess I'm a little MORE afraid of what I'd become if I didn't speak up about some things.  I do try to be respectful, even if my brains are blowing up on the other side.  thank you!    I've enjoyed getting to chat a little more recently.

@TwoDimes:  I love to cook!  I didn't cook until I got married, so it's been a lot of fun learning new things and really finding my style.  are you a little chef yourself??

@LivLeighton:  there are some very big personalities around here, so I guess it took me quite some time to find my own small voice.  I love seeing you around more, you're one of my absolute favorite posters!  plus, I need to know when I can browse/order dryer balls and heating pads and linen sprays from you!  I am ANXIOUSLY awaiting.

@Sakalicious:  giant hugs back!

@beanbot2002:  TAMALE NIGHT!!!  I'm down for that, as long as I get to snack on them as we make them.  that's the ONLY way to do it.

P.S. @Swazzle - I seriously think you've got some "Catherine, Duchess of Cambridge" look-alike features going on.

Oh my. That is the best compliment anyone's ever given me!

GoldenPenguin

Since everyone else broke the rules, I guess I will to!! 

@livleighton - I think I got everything out the other day on your post, but I'll just reiterate how much I love you. 

@beanbot - You are one of the strongest women I know. I'm never having kids, but if I did, I would want you to give me mom lessons, because you're seriously the best one I've ever seen. Bean is a lucky little dude to have you in his corner. You're also my horse sister, and I can't wait to come down to DC & go riding with you & my boy!! I love you to the moon!

@bethsmiles - I'm happy we've been getting along too!! I think you give some awesome advice around here, and you've got some major patience pants - can I borrow them?? 

@lennonkdc - I'm really glad I got to meet you IRL in the Fingerlakes. You make some kick ass sauce, and you play a mean game of CAH. I know you're going to be fine with this job situation - you're a strong chick, and it'll all turn out for the best!! 

 @cu97tiger - I still want to be you when I grow up. You have given me some amazing advice over the years. Whether it's jobs, relationships, family, you always know what to say, and be honest with your advice, and that is invaluable to me. Also, you're hot. 

Some newbs:

katieg520 - Even though you spell & pronounce your daughter's name "wrong," I still think you're awesome. ;-)  You're feisty, pretty, and I think you fit in around here quite nicely. I look forward to getting to know you better, and see your plans as your wedding approaches. I have a feeling it's going to be gorgeous!

@amapola14 - I don't know if you really count as a "newb" but you're here on my list. I think you give great advice, you're funny, smart, and I hope you stick around. You also appreciate my gifs, so you've gotta be awesome!

@phira - I think you have handed out some ridiculously good advice in your time here, and that's always a good place to start. I also look forward to seeing your developing wedding plans, and I'm sure I'll be asking for advice from you at some point! 

@bubbles053006 - you've got balls. I don't think anyone has taken as much shit around here as you and stuck around. I'm so very sorry about your BFs dad. I'm glad I could help you with your tattoo, and I'll be around for more advice on them anytime.

beanbot2002

I'm all sniffly and teary eyed again!

I LOVE YOU!!! @swazzle @brisox81

@cocobellaf I always sneak a pinch of meat here and there when we roll them, and then I always steal the first tamal out of the steam pot. And it's always the best one out of the bunch. With mole sauce, or salsa verde, and load of sour cream on top! YES!

leia1979

I'm sorry I missed the love-fest. I was at a two-day offsite for work.

@loves2shop4shoes - thank you so much for the love, advice, and encouragement.

@buggle2 - you are my text buddy, and I love that I can tell you anything. By the way, I got tons of compliments last night on the headband you knit for me.

@motolyn, @buddysmom80, @lennonkdc, @BriSox81 and @swazzle, I miss you, chat regs. Stupid work keeping me from chat. I really enjoy your company, and you ladies really help the work day go by.

Swazzle

@leia1979 - I miss you too! I have the same issue that you were having where it's not actually blocked but it won't load once I click to enter. Did you ever figure it out?

buddysmom80

@leia1979 I miss you too! You make my day go by so much faster whenever you or @motolyn tell us it's time for lunch because that means an hour and a half left for me at work!

phira

Awwww, you guuuuuuys, I'm all

Peaseblossom55

@NEY I love you all!!! I can't image life without you guys as my friends.   Time is lacking for personal shout outs.  I wish I could meet you all, and have one big giant sleep over at my house or something....

All I can figure is that work is blocking the chat server IP address. I can access chat from my work laptop at home but not at work and not if I'm on VPN at home.
