Introduce/Reintroduce Yourself

[ConcKahuna]

Hi, I’m Lorenz from Switzerland, 40 years old and single.
I decided joining Gaydays this year. While I was browsing on the internet I stopped by on DISboards.com where I found a lot of helpful information for my travel preparations.

WOot! Stop by the Gaydays thread! There will be a ton of us there and we'll have to meet up!

 

[OrlandoMike]

Welcome Swiss Traveler!

ConcK, are you in charge of the mini meet?

Heh, I might have to make a post for one. Give me a week or 2 to figure out what would work best

 

[Tigger&Belle]

I'm pricing it tomorrow to see if Gay Days can maybe be worked out.

 

[prncesaurora21]

I grew up in a small town called Trinidad, Colorado, and have lived in Las Cruces, New Mexico; Lubbock, Texas; and Dallas prior to living here.

before i introduce myself i just need to be overly excited about the fact that you lived in las cruces...i was born there, lived there until i was five, moved to arizona and have been there ever since, but most of my family is in cruces still. it isn't often i see anyone out here in the "real world" who even knows that las cruces exists!

*ahem* anyway...my name is michelle, i am 22 years old from az. i am marrying my boyfriend of 5 years next month lol...it came up faster then i thought it would. we are going to disneyworld for our honeymoon, the first time there for us both (we try to do disneyland at least once a year). i have a BA in english literature and would like nothing more than to write fantsy novels into the twilight years of my life and visit disney often

two of my best friends in the world are gay men that i met at my last job and my biggest pet peeve is people who feel that they have the right to judge anyone for any reason. it doesn't take much to get me on a soapbox when it comes to things like that because it is a state of mind i have never and will never understand. i would defend anyone's right to choose the way they want to live.

i am a lurker here as well as a few other boards (mostly the wedding board haha) but i thought i would say hello also, i have an addiction to smilies. in case you hadn't noticed hahahaha!

Hi SwissTraveller

My uncle's boyfriend is from Switzerland.
I think he's from - well. he pronounces it like "sweets" - but I know it must have a different spelling.

Hi wallyb

Cute, I believe your uncle's boyfriend is vom "Schwyz". A little traditional city right in the heart of Switzerland.

yeah - that's right!
OMG - Schwyz - I never would have gotten that spelling.
Thanks.
And "velcome" to the DIS!

Hi,
This is my first post on the boards! I stumbled upon them somehow & now I'm hooked.
I live in Philly with my girlfriend of almost 3 years (in August). We moved here almost a year ago. We're both originally from Jersey. I go to school for web design & she's a social worker in South Jersey.
Both of us have been to Disney World numerous times, but only once together in December of 2006. We were there for 5 days/4 nights and decided that was much too short!
We're hoping to return soon & I'm hoping to surprise her with a trip for her birthday (Aug 14th) and our anniversary.
-- Lindsey

 

[shrela]

*waves* Hey boards! I'm Shay, I'm 18, and I'm from Rhode Island. Annnnd I'm engaged to my girlfriend, Kala. (Yes, we're ridiculously young. Yes, I'm absolutely sure that it's right. I always feel like I need to be defensive about this whole thing, sorry!) Anyways, we're planning on Disney World for our honeymoon, and granted, we don't NEED to start planning right now, since the wedding isn't for three years, but how can I resist? I've only been there once nine years ago (I know, it's sacrilege) and I'm incredibly excited. We're interested in finding out about how Disney treats same-sex couples on their honeymoons. Can we order two of those adorable little bride mouse ears? Because, I mean, the whole thing is obviously not worth it if I don't get mouse ears with a veil attached.

I feel incredibly boring in this introduction, but it's 8 in the morning and I haven't slept yet, so excuse me for that. Insomnia fails at life.

 

[NikkiPants]

Hey! New to these parts!
I'm Nikki, or Pants. Or both! How is everyone doing?
I'm from Boston...moving to NYC with my significant other in August.
My favorite park is the Magic Kingdom. I like it at night best when it's all lit up.

Hi everyone! :]

[I<3EvilQueen]

Somehow in five months I didn't notice that this was a thread about "re-introducing" yourselves. Geesh, I feel like a lurker all of a sudden.

But here we go:

Ken - Atlanta, GA

Grew up in the Detroit, MI suburbs (Lincoln Park and went to Eastern Michigan University). Moved to Atlanta in the fall of 1996.

The reason I like each Disney Park:
MK - Makes me feel like a kid again
AK - Brings out my spiritual side
EPCOT - Makes me learn, and Fun Adult stuff outside a bed *wink*
DHS - I was born to be a star, and I act like one in the park. "Now take my picture, and where is my limo?.....for I am ready for my close up.... and I love all those people out there in the dark."


Favorite non Disney Park: Cedar Point

Single: So if you know any handsome, single, funny, stable men in the Atlanta area please let me know.

Likes: TV, Movies, Theatre, Reading, Sci-fi, Fantasy, Disney (of Course), Hockey, Travel, the Olympics, Roleplaying games, board games, Comics.

Dislikes: Close-minded people, dishonesty, having debt, people that say "my pleasure" when I thank them at the drive thru. I also dislike that I don't spend as much time on here as I would like.

Age: 34
Sign: Scorpio (and yes what you've heard it true)

Other interesting facts: I am a secord degree Wiccan Priest (so I can marry people, and hold hand-fasting ceremonies), I have a Boston Terrier named Belle, I have one tatto and working on another.

 

[DearDaisyinDurham]

Ken, we have a cairn terrier named Bella. Almost twins!!!

Welcome everyone!! I hope I can pass on the same warm welcome that I received when I started posting. This is a fun place to be.

xoxoxoxoxoxo

 

[TinkerChelle]

I haven't been around in quite a while. It seems this community has grown since I was here last. My partner and I are huge disney fans and am so excited to have found you all here. A pic of us is in my sig. I am the blonde-I am Chelle and my partner's name is Amy.

You peeps seems like a fun bunch!

 

[RemixBoyNJ]

Hey everyone..

Sorry I have been absent from the boards for a while, things with work have been absolutely nuts lately but now that things have quieted down a bit I should be on more often

So with all that said the reintroduce thing just hits just at the right time..

The name is Adam, 34 years old, work for Starbucks and live out in Bartonsville, PA (Pocono Mountains).

I live with my boyfreind (Tim) and our two dogs, one cat, and various fish (the fish are Tims cause i have a tendancy to kill things that wont tell me that they are hungry, plants are included in this list.)

We moved out to PA about a year ago now and love it out here.

We are both from NY (Brooklyn for me, Tim is out of Queens)

I think that about sums it all up..

Speak to you all later
Adam

 

[Alison_in_Wonderland]

HI!

I am Alison. I live between Washington, DC and Baltimore with my wife (of 8 years) our 2 year old twin boys, and 2 cats. I am a medical social worker.

I adore Disney. I have no idea how many times I've been to WDW (I am guessing 15-20) starting when I was about 4 and the last time in 2005. My wife isn't into Disney (boo.) She says she "doesn't mind it" but she doesn't think it is the happiest place on earth. Clearly, she is misguided.

I have been waiting to take our kids since before they were even born and I've talked her into one day at MK in Jan/Feb 09 (we have friends in the area so we aren't going down for just one day at the park!) We'll do a bigger/more extensive trip when the kids are a bit older. I really want to do a solo trip - but I don't think that leaving her home with 2 2 year olds is really fair.

 

[rosiep]

Hi Adam (again)

Hi Allison

Adam: Where in Brooklyn do you hail from? I grew up in Williamsburg, lived in Park Slope and Bay Ridge before moving to Portland.

Allison is my daughters middle name.....I love that name.
