I’m Leaving On A Jet Plane…So, Where Are You From Anyway?
Tuesday, September 12, 2006Posted in: Uncategorized
Tranquil…
This will be my last post until myself and TTG get back from our hols.
A while ago, Alison Kent asked her blog readers to post in the comments section where they were from. I thought this was an excellent idea, and as I’m not gonna be around until early October, I thought I’d do the same thing here too.
So, if you’re a lurker, please take the time to delurk, and tell me where you’re from. I’d love to know who my Italian, Polish, German, and Austrian lurkers are. *g*
Incidentally, it doesn’t matter if multiple people live in the same area. It would also be interesting to note how many people visit me, who are from the same place.
I’ll see you guys in three weeks, so be good!

I’ve been reading where everyone is from and it’s incredible what a world wide group romance readers are – and also Karen fans 🙂

Somebody else was from Kansas! Me too. Cold as hell in the winter, hot as hell in the summer and flat as hell the rest of the year. But you know how in those end of the world TV shows, it’s always a small town in Nowhere, Kansas that survives, [grin}?

Hi Karen
I guess I’m the only Japanese here.
I’m from small town in Japan and now living in Tokyo.
Never had a courage to speak up.
Hope you have a great time!

Delurking for the moment, I’m from the Commonwealth of Dominica (not to be confused with the Dominican Republic to different places with two different languages). Hope you had a good vacation.

Hi Karen
I thought I was the only Caribbean person here, till I read about my Dominican neighbour. Hiiiii! I’m from Barbados, grew up in Philadelphia, now living in lovely Zurich Switzerland. Hot men, hot damn!
Am not a blogger, but love reading others’ opinions and rantings and generally lurking. Sometimes might add my 2cents.
Am wondering though, why you chose LA for your hols when there is soo much to discover and experience on this totally diversed continent called Europe?!. No offense to anyone, just wondering…… Still have a great time…..

Hey Karen!
Dylan here, you’re in my hood, if you’re in Manhattan Beach, California…I live in Torrance, CA..which is the next town over! =)
I hope you’re enjoying visiting California! Plenty to do around these parts! 😉
Did you visit King Harbor, where they film the show, The O.C. with Adam Brody? You missed the Black Pearl Ship, which was docked in Palos Verdes last week, they filmed some scenes from the third POTC and Johnny Depp was seen around the pier…just a little tid bit, lots and lots of films are filmed around these parts! =)
Welcome to California and enjoy your stay sweets!

Hi Chandra, I haven’t been to Switzerland, but it’s on my list, as for the ret of Europe, TTG and I do at least 3 European cities each year, but we like to have a longer holiday outside Europe!
Dylan, so far we’ve done Beverly Hills, Santa Monica, San Diego, Venice Beach (what a shithole that was, no offence to anybody who lives there) Laguna Beach, Huntington Beach, and San Francisco (flew to SF for 3 days, and watched the SF 49ers V Philly Eagles match at Monster Park and went to Alcatraz). Tomorrow we’re off to Las Vegas, by the time we get back home, I’ll need a ten week holiday!
Hi to everybody else! We’re having a blast over here, incidentally, has anybody other than me noticed that Cheryl Holt has a thing about incest and pedophilia situations in her books? What’s up with that? I’m just sayin.
Also, Lori Foster’s Murphy’s Law is a fab read, so go buy!
Ciao for now!!

I’m so hurt. Sure, I’ve said pretty much the same thing on occasion – but always with love.
I do concede that if what you want in a day at the beach is best described by words like “clean,” “pretty,” or “low bacteria count” you should stick to OC, Santa Monica or Malibu.
Have fun in Vegas!

I thought of you repeatedly when reading that Holt book. Not sure if that is good or bad ;).
So ML is worth buying huh? I so didn’t want to buy it new but I may have too now just because of you.

I hope you’re going to sunny Jamaica for your vacation since that’s where I’m from. You know I don’t lie when I say the beaches are fine!

Hi Gela, the Jamaican beaches are indeed fine, but I think The Ball and Chain was contemplating Australia this year!
