It has been a very long time since I have been here...I have been kind of busy, but mostly I have been distracted. Recently (tonight) someone (Ada) reminded me that I was once part of an amazing group of people...I met some of my closest friends through this site and I miss it!
So hello everyone! I'm belladonnatook! I live in NY, I am 4 courses away from my MBA. I will graduate in May 2012. I work for NYS.
Ask me whatever you would like, I just wanted to say hello!
No, now go away or I shall taunt you a second time.

So good to see you again BT. It has been an age.
Good luck as you finish your studies. That will be a truly wonderful achievement.
I was in NYC last year (as a tourist) and absolutely fell in love with it. An Amazing city.
Don't be a stranger. We are a slower board at the moment, though several of our old friends are returning. BUt we keep plugging away.
It will be great to have you here.

I am so glad to be back! I can't wait for the Hobbit to come out! I will be very glad when I am done with my MBA it has been stressful! But it will so be worth it!

Hello Belladonnatook
I'm new here - came searching for a LOTR forum after the old UK one I belonged got closed down. I'm really enjoy it here and you're all a lovely bunch of Hobbits, Elves, Dwarves, Humans, Wraiths, Wizards and other such creatures!!

Hehe, I belong in the
other such creatures category.
Hey, Belladonnatook! I've been here for about two years now, and Iblassi's right, there is no other bunch of great people out there on the web!

Hello Ibalissi and Harthad! I do know that these are fantastic people! They were once an hourly part of my life
Before ITS blocked the website on me! haha! I remember waiting for Return of the King to hit the theater! And attending The Gathering of the Fellowship (pt. 2) in Toronto! It was FANTASTIC!!!

I was there, too! It was wonderful. I often think of the dear friends we don't see any more. Anborn1, May Gamgee, and the wonderful artist who created the Scrapbook that was sent to Peter Jackson (I can't remember her name, but it was lovely and I was in it!!!). Rosie and Ic. Seans Beanie. Mel Baggins.
I hope there's another Gathering for The Hobbit.
Today is the oldest you've ever been, yet the youngest you will ever be, so enjoy the day while it lasts.

Hobbitlove headed up the scrapbook project... boy,
that was a while ago now, wasn't it?
The world is full of lovely people - it's so nice to see some of them popping in to share a cup of tea or two again.
Welcome back, belladonnatook!

Clearly, we can't stay away forever. I wandered off for about 3 or 4 years and just returned this month also! I think it was just calling to us
I missed you Miss Belladonna!
