Hoy Shit, bonquiqui, what a lovely post - not because it included me (though I'm honoured!) but it had so much love.

Sending it right back at you

Agree, bonquiqui! I am rooting for you every day. You seem like a great, kind person, who has had way too much to deal with this year. I'm hoping 2014 is outstanding for you!

Because there aren't enough words to capture how tremendous her existence is, how kind, how thoughtful, how caring, how amazing human being she is, and how I am absolutely fortunate to have her in my life.

julez has been such a fun person to have impromptu hangouts here in the city, and I'm eternally grateful.

HiC is my rock. She fills me with happy, with true happy with her comments, her advice, her thoughtfulness and her beauty.

I will always remember how EmilieMadison came to my house within minutes, after an accident where I felt absolutely lost and hopeless and in stupid despair, and was a true source of calm, reminding me that everything was fine - though at that moment, I pretty much felt the lowest I've ever felt, ever.

Recently I hung out with thedutchgirl, and I felt an immediate kinship with her, and she gave me awesome tips on things to do in the cities. Love them! Love her! (So if you felt I was dorky and boring, you better shut it!).

Awww, I wuv you too!

I don't think I can tag people because I am on the stupid app, but: moe (my hetero soulmate), angelaa, saraandmichael, gretchen, speedracer, kams, and coconutbug are all wonderful, wonderful people with a special place in my heart. Girlfriday11 kicks 8 kinds of ass and is extra fantastic because of our black market wine and green chile arrangement. Joenali, in spite of occasionally losing it on this board, has been nothing but kind and supportive to me as I have been struggling with an injury that has completely sidelined me for months.

I almost forgot the pro fart nerd! We are going to fangirl stalk George R R Martin together.

zoidberg is always up for my random fb messenger GoT thoughts and feelings, and I'm so proud of her for rocking her PhD and bug move. I'm so freaking happy for you, and I lol that I was in school when I helped you with your essay and I'm still not done. Ah well, I blame the kid

And saraandmichael sent me a Sophia Petrillo shirt and it just doesn't get any better than that, friends

[Moe]

Oh man, I was only trying to highlight a few, but to those who have ever had an impact in my life, whether big or small (you know who you are) gracias. I love you.

I think I'm all rainbowed out of my ass, and it was worth it.

You're welcome! I don't even care if you don't mean me. You called me the morning Lucy was born! I'm not sure if I pronounced your name right though!!

You're my Petit Artiste, dude, of course you're included. 

I was hoping for a voice mail, and then you answered and then I was all "wait, what do I say to a person who is sleep deprived!"

i was so happy for you, you could have called me dork and I'd be all happy.  Happy happy.

emsumm and nursecramer both went out of their way to dig up experience AND TO SHARE PERSONAL RESOURCES (BOTH!)  to help me my first year of teaching.  I has been helpful beyond measure and so much appreciated.  What giving and wonderful souls.

ETA  gretchenindisguise and Que?  They are both consistently willing to speak to me in a kind way - even at my most stupid and flameworthy times.  I appreciate this because they don't placate, they just try to treat me with dignity.  I've seen both stand as the sole poster in a pile-on thread willing to include something kind even in dissenting replies.  I am infinitely grateful for this.  Thank you, guys.

Edited again for the lovely @@cse1960.  I could never express how much better my life with SIL is because of sue's quick insight.  I would have made a family brawl many times over if not for her perspective and wisdom.

Aw, that really means a lot. Thank you so much Bunny. 

[W.T.Faulkner]

bonquiqui, girl, I am touched.  Thanks.  Also, so proud of you.  You're a boss.

[sparkythelawyer]

Aw, Bon! I'm all teary and stuff. You are good people. And stronger and more capable than you would ever know. Thanks man!

I am more than happy about being included in the same company as you.

-Moe- and profart, if you two ever gtg, I NEED to be there.

Sitting on a lounge chair in front of a quiet lake with gin and cucumber cocktails, shooting the breeze with you is in my bucket list.

But it must include gin

[elleblue]

bonquiqui - thank you for the kind words. You're so incredibly strong, not to mention funny, I always enjoy your posts. 

(auto correct wanted to turn your name to vanquish, lol)

[cleo29]

This is going to be tough because there are so many amazing women on this board.

@weeble and LLL, are simply awesome, generous, funny women. I consider myself lucky to have had the chance to get to know them and call them friends.

@flexie, continually amazes me with her strength. She is a fabulous, warm, smart great friend.

coribelle and peachy, both get my love for Disney and are so funny.

eddy, frkls, stellas, make me laugh and feel no so alone in the trials and tribulations of parenting. They also remind me that I am not fucking up... at least not all the time.

And many more of you (might as well list the whole board):

You all have reached out and supported me during what was by far the hardest experience of my life. I will never forget the support I've gotten here. Thank you all.

You're so sweet. Thank you.

[flex]

I love all of you guys. And ESPECIALLY the ones I've met in person. You know who you are. lol

But seriously, in my darkest hour all of you were there for me. I'll never forget that...ever.

[eb777888]

Awwww, thank you bonquiqui ! You are an amazing and beautiful person and I'd hang out with you any day of the week!

I am so happy to have met these girls. I can't believe how awesome the Denver ML'ers are and they're some of my new favorite people. Thank you for putting up with me! <3

Add me to the polka check-in club.    She is amazing and somehow always (magically) seems to know when I'm have a rough day, and that's when I get a polka message.  She's quite possibly the most thoughtful person on the planet.

Yes, she has great instincts! She once sent a card that was perfectly timed.

Ack she's amazing, I could go on all day about her. She's the only one other than Jake that helped me through our CF business regularly and I'm so blessed to have her as a friend.

[sparkythelawyer]

Hey Scotty, this one's for you! You have such a big heart and such a fighter's spirit. I love how much you care about every living thing :-)

The Denver MLers are a hoot, including you, @jezebel! I haven't laughed as hard in a long time as I did yesterday. 

[Jalapeñomel]

Holy shit bonquiqui you are awesome!

[BieberMyBalls]

I've thanked her perfusely, but I really can't thank her enough. Marle was an incredible support system when my Mom was fighting cancer, and took time out of her day to talk to me and provide tons of info and kind words. I can't tag on the mobile site, but if anyone sees this and could tag her for me that would be awesome. She really deserves a shout out, she's an amazing person!

I just want to give props to all the people who have started over this year; fuckstick, Vicki, bonquiqui et al. It takes a lot of strength to do that and I really admire all of you and think you all kick ass.

I'm also so stoked for the people who have their babies after so much struggle and difficulty. VeryViolet, mudslide, @ottermama. Seeing them makes me so happy.

Thank you! Tiffany makes us so happy. She was worth the wait and all the trouble.

[mudslide]

MWOS for being my CRPS buddy. I'm so sorry that you have to deal with this crap too.

So, what I'm taking from this post is that Polka pretty much kicks ass in the friend department.

Awww.  Really, they are the awesome ones, and I love each of our friendships


...Or maybe I just enjoy kicking ass.

Yes. Thanks for the mention BQQ!

[EmilieMadison]

toledo and cjoy are the best friends anyone could hope for. And not only are they both completely awesome, but their husbands and kids are some of my favorite people in the world, too. I am not a very sentimental person, but I'll never hesitate to say how truly lucky I am to count them as my friends. 

[Jalapeñomel]

whiskeyandwine I'm totally excited to see you in NYC. Muddled will have to pick out a great place for dinner when you first get here.

[Deleted]

bonquiqui you are a beautiful person through and through. I needed to hear that

Lucy Honeychurch has offered me some very much needed words of wisdom. I appreciate it more than she knows.
