My EF meetup thread thoughts......

[Sassy69]

Oh man I enjoyed reading this! I missed alot of the socializing due to my hourly potato feedings and all nite posing session, however I could see that everyone was having a great time & just getting along great! You could see everyone's personality from the boards starting to come out as the time passed. What I remember most is the noise coming from certain parts of the audience while I was on stage and coudlnt' see anyone except the judges w/ the lights in my face, but I could hear them. I could hear and it just made me smile even bigger.

I appreciate that everyone understood my little fit about the potato at the restaurant - I was not proud of myself and lapsed into a bit of a terrets fit about the need for a single 3 oz potato. It happened again the next day at another restaurant. The moral of the story there is never leave home w/o your potatos.

I had more fun just hanging out w/ Bunny in our room -- thx for giving me a place to call "home" for a few days girl! Never had so much fun w/ someone so special!
Shadow helped bring me down from the potato incident and has been there through all the turmoil for the last 6 months of prep and continues to be a source of common sense & support packaged in a hot little southern gentleman's body.
Matty - no words for matty - unique in my lifetime & and unique in my life. Couldn't ask to know a better person.
NYCgirl - hawty! So much fuN!
Jens - more hawty, fun, hiliarious watching you with matt and the science of the magic straw!
HH - love ya like the homeslice that ya are girl! We will continue to plan destruction of brain cells via liquid fire in the future! Between trips to the gym of course...!
aap - welll, workin' the magic on the EF girls...!
Frisky - my dance buddy, tearing up the floor to 5 yr old trance music while cheffy stands on the side with his stupid happy smile
Cheffy -- again, words cant' describe how great it is to see you again and to see you so happy and bringing all that to the ATL!
Ulter - The Man! The legend! It was awesome sitting around watchign you and my trainer talk shop - learned lots, continue to learn and just ecstatic to have the chance to hang out. And yes, the source of my first and only Capt & Diet Coke! Thank you ma man, and cheers! Have I mentioned how much I *LOVE* Cardio Breeze???
4everhung - great to meet you and yet another proud moment for me that you were able to experience the potato fit as well... lol

All in all, I'm stilll carrying a stupid happy smile on my face and still consider this one of my life-topping moments. I'll never forget this weekend. Ever.

And yes, I got the BIG trophy!

My last thought of the day Sat was of my trainer driving back to the gym in his Scion w/ all the trophies we brought back that nite. Hilarious! Wonderful & hilarious.

Matty - no words for matty - unique in my lifetime & and unique in my life. Couldn't ask to know a better person.

The feeling is mutual.

4everhung - LOL.. saw him late Friday everyone was already plastered and I introduced myslef more than once and all he could say was.. Who are you again.. LOL I don't think he figured out who I was until the end of the night.
Cool guy very wild and crazy!

heh
I'm hard of hearing
seriously though,In my town I'm well known because of our family business
I can't go anywhere w/o people recognizing me
all the clergy and I work together
so I can't even buy beer at the supermarket
not to mention there's nowhere to go
so when I get to party out of town I'm like a sailor on leave

I remember one time at a restaurant they told me that they were out of baked potatoes
I managed to get the mgmt to give me a tanqueray martini instead
cool trade
in your case too I can well understand your frustration
you've been carefully minding your diet which I imagine too involved a good degree of sacrifice
you were understandably looking forward to the allowable potato and then to find out it wasn't to be
well fuck
if I hadn't received a martini in trade I'd have been pissed too

HH is attractive, her personality really shows in these pictures, I'm a bit suprised she's still single.

Thanks homeslice.

Let's see here...my turn to give a snyopsis of the crazies at the meetup:

4everhung – Dude, u crack me up. Although I think you drank yourself under the table friday night you made for a barrel of laughs. You're a very outspoken guy to say the least. (Btw....the hair gel incident, still one of the funnier moments of the weekend)

Bunny – Hunni bunny, WOW! First thing that came to mind the minute I saw you and the only thing I can think to say now. You, my dear, are a true inspiration to all. Ripped up from head to toe lookin' hawt hawt hawt! I wish the absolute best for you in ALL of your endeavors. Call me anytime and we'll pop pills together. lol

nycgirl – *giggle giggle*. You're a sneaky lil shit for sure. One of those friends who quietly observe and then BAM! Come out with some off the wall remark or comment to have me in stitches. (and in trouble half the time) You're like the sister I never had. Bring your tig-ol-bitty-giggly-smart-ass down here anytime! You rock!

Jenscat – I luv you woman. I had such a great time with you. Bold and beautiful is how I would describe you. Not afraid to speak your mind (which we all know HH can appreciate) and life of the party. (as we all could see in the pic of you doubled up with the beers) *cough cough alcoholic cough*

Chefwide – We didn't get to talk much but from a distance, you're a trip. You and your facial expressions kill me. Though you look like a bad ass, my money is on you being a complete teddy bear.

Sassy – Lady, not even sure where to start with you. You are amazing. Your transformation in the time I've known you alone blows me away. I feel so very fortunate to have you in my life. (certainly 36lbs lighter later ) You were one of the first ladies to take me under your wing here on EF and have guided, encouraged, and supported me every step of the way. Your personality, heart, wisdom, integrity, love of life just brings smiles to anyone around you. I am, without question, a better person for knowing you and am SOOOO glad I was able to cheer you on this weekend. You were stunning.

Ulter – Unfortunately I didn't get to talk to this guy much however, I'm a great eavesdropper. Heh. Probably one of the smartest men I've met. Full of SO much information and knowledge. I too have so much respect for his contribution to the Bunny Project. That aside, has a sincere smile that really draws you in. Can't wait to see what else surfaces in time from this mastermind.

Frisky - Wish I could type out my big ol smile here. This girl is wild, crazy, upbeat and just a ton of fun to be around. As most of us (short of aap of course), I really got a kick out of seeing her tear into aap. Her personality on the boards followed her to atlanta to make for a really kick ass time together. Funny, I'm over hear laughing just thinking about the time we had. You're awesome girl and I will be one of your biggest supporters for your competitions! (btw: yet, another white girl who can shake her groove thang)

Matttheskywalker – Hmmm, Matt is in a class of his own. Very sincere yet straight forward. Jovial yet serious. You never have to question what is on his mind which is (IMO) a remarkable quality. Definitely another life of the party. Not sure I'll ever forget the spillage in the back pocket tho...that was priceless. He's one of these people who without fail, will succeed at any endeavor in life. Awesome to finally meet ya man.

Shadow-The biggest shit talker on the east coast. A bit of a mystery to this attractive, well spoken, intellect....who from time to time has something funny to say. He too, has really helped me in my transformation over the past 3 months and for that, I owe many many many thanks. I'm certain I wouldn't be where I am today without his guidance. So, for an old guy....he's pretty cool. (please note, i'm still not scared of him)

aap – Well, well, well....what do I say about lil country? I have to admit all of the banter back and forth on the boards prior has me intrigued about meeting him. Not so much the shit talker when he's standing face to face but genuinely an awesome guy. Good looking, great personality, big heart, very attentive to what's going on around him, I agree with all of the other ladies...he's definitely a gentleman to the core. Next time bring your laptop so we can see what you're really all about. lol

Habitual health – she's one coo mo fo.



Dang I feel like I just signed my senior yearbook again.


Seriously-everyone had something unique to bring to the meetup this weekend and I feel very fortunate to have met you all. Anytime you're in atlanta....don't ask me to drive you around. Mmmkkk.

Same here HH. I will be there, boobies and all, if you ever need me. You always have a place to stay in the D.C. area, and if you need a hotel room, please give me a call. I you.
