Sorry about hijacking your thread, Carolyn.

Thanks -- and don't be ridiculous apologizing for hijacking a thread...in the real world it's called "having a conversation" LOL In my family when my mom, my aunt and I are together we all just talk. We talk AT each other, TO each other, OVER each other. We totally talk at the same time about 5 different things...but yet we all manage to keep up with one another and know exactly what we're all talking about all at once. Somehow I think that's how it'd be if you put all of us cheffers in one room - LOL

OMG! A room full of Chef Success members would be SO loud!

Cuz we're not social and opinionated or anything. Not us.
 
I wonder how many consultants are introverts?????

Funny thing is...when you put me in a room with all new people (and no apron) I am quiet as a field-mouse until I get comfy...then you can't shut me up - LOL

The apron brings out the wildwoman in Carolyn - LOL! :)

The apron is like a stage costume. It changes the wearer into another person, who may have a completely different personality.
 
As long as they aren't multiple personalities, I guess it works...

Carolyn~

That's me too! Many people have told me after they have known me for a while that they thought I was "stuck up" when they first met me...cuz I am so quiet till I really get to know people! I don't think I ever get to the point where you can't shut me up, but I certainly talk WAY more when I am comfortable and really know those around me!:rolleyes:
 
Well, I'll hopefully meet all you "shy" people at Wave 2...

I really think we'd get along very well! LOL! I can talk to the walls in my house if given the chance, hey I'm comfortable with them! but put me in a room where I'm not behind an apron and people are strangers, I clam up big time! BUT the minute I get comfortable I can talk all night! My husband literally has to pull me out of the room kicking and screaming sometimes when I am feeling really social:eek: :D !! Especially with family and my really good friends! AND the funny thing is he's the polar opposite of me. Says he could never do what I do, get up in front of stangers and practically walk out of the show with a whole group of new friends:p :rolleyes: :) ;) !
He won't even answer the phone half the time cause it means he has to be social! LOL! And my son is a lot like him, a little more social cause of my influence, but definetly more quiet! And my daughter, well she LOVES to talk, can't get her to shut up!:eek: So social, but yet if she doesn't know people she'll be more quiet too!

Rawr!

Now, I have to pull my cat off of the keyboard!

LOL! That's funny.
 
As I think about it more, it would be better for an all piano/electric keyboard Jazz ensemble.

Deep down inside I'm really a very organized person,
but it hasn't come to the surface yet
(thanks PamperedMom2001 for my new tagline!!)

I like your tagline. My husband told me I am the most organized wanna be, that he knows. I'm all talk, but can't do it. I think I will tell him next time, that deep down inside I'm very organized person, but just haven't found it yet. Thanks.

....Now where is my mouse. I have to hit 'submit reply'. Maybe it is under these papers..... :confused:

I am currently working and living in Oneonta, but my hometown is Caroga Lake - in Fulton County... where are you??
 
KG - Shadow looks like a "serious" kind of cat... ...kind of like, "I can't believe you had the nerve to wake me up here with that camera..."

I can see why he's called Shadow. :)

We've had 3 grey cats...Smokey, Dusty and Asher (Asher was adopted so we didn't name her...but we really have a grey/fire theme going there...)
 
Those are adorable...... thanks for sharing!!

My best kitty ever was a grey cat Her name was Charcoal (but I called her Charlie most of the time)
I had to leave her with my mom when I moved to MN. They got on well (considdering my mom did not like cats). She was a good kitty and I miss her lots! She was my best friend durring my single days.

We have had a tough time with Cat's lately arround here. We are on our 4th one in 2 years. Long story....busy road etc....
We finally adopted one that is 4 and likes to be inside most of the time. She also likes to sit in fron of my computer while I am trying to work...

I understand...we were on #3 in 3 years, but we got smart with #3 and adopted an 11 year old...we had the busy street (3 year old accidentally let him out) and urine stone situation (had to put #2 down) already. Now, we've had this one over a year and she'll be around for as long as she can...she goes outside but is very street smart and stays in the yard by the dogs.
