Well, I finally made it home on Tuesday, after a late takeoff in Philly caused me to miss my connection home. I already miss each and every one of you.
All of you had a hand in making my 2nd NEST special. I didn’t get to hang out with everyone I wanted to, but there’s always next year, right?
A couple of people who helped make my weekend special along with a few of my personal highlights:
NGO2—It was so great to finally meet you after talking to you all these years. You’re like my goofy (yeah, I said it) little bro, lol. Remember…….3 inches only counts in one thing I can think of, 😀
Tony—Sorry, I forget your name on TT, but it was awesome of you to join us, even tho you denounced me as a friend, lol. I hope you come to more gatherings. And get a freakin TMF screename, will ya?
Pokey—Once again, it was a real pleasure to see you. You were my center for the mornings. I know I could always just have some quite time with you. You are a charming gentleman, and I always look forward to seeing you!
Natural Tickler—FINALLY we got to meet! 2 birthdays—nuff said, lol. Sorry man, but you deserved it! I stills luvs ya tho!
Waitn2btickled—I’m so glad you decided to make it and delurk. Thanks for letting me get to know you a little better. I wish we coulda made it out on Sat nite!I mean, what girl doesn’t want 4 hawt guys around her?
Euphoricy—OMG Girl! You are so freaking awesome! I know we didn’t get to hang much, but maybe that’ll change come next NEST!
Slacker—After all these years of me stalking you online, the greatest moment for me was when you opened the door to your hotel room, to see me stalking you in person! Next time I see you, more backrubs for you! Oh, and you should probably trim back the bushes in your east window 😀
Fireguardian—One of my “sisters” at NEST. You and I bonded from the minute we saw each other. It was fun to cuddle, play and talk with you all weekend. It’s nice to know someone who knows exactly where I’m coming from. I miss you soooooo much! I better see you before next year.
Avenger314 and Aylajane15—Guys, I made it to my 2nd NEST! Yay! Jess, you were another NEST “sister”. You are always cheerful and happy, you always brighten up my days with your presence. I love you, babygirl! Veng—you are a lucky man to have found this beautiful woman who shares our love for tickling.. So glad I got to spend time with both of you!
Vinnees1—Or Vanessa, whichever,lol. Big Bro!!! I miss you! I’m so glad we got to meet and talk with each other. It was so much more fun to talk shit to your face than just online, lol. Love you, Big Bro, and can’t wait to see you again!
Brighteyes—You were so busy all weekend I know, but we tried to make some time for each other. At least I got my hugs in! See you soon!
MTPJeff—YOU GIVE THE BEST HUGS EVER!!! I’m so glad we actually got to sit and talk this year! Oh, and one more thing………..you can thank me later, lol.
EcEu—Juuuuuuuules! You were one of the greatest things about NEST. You are one of THE nicest guys I got to meet this year! I got to hang out with you, and now we know where to go to get Zapatos for $15!!!!
Capnmad—What can I say to express my love and appreciation for you? We have been friends for a long time, and each meeting only strengthens the friendship that we have. I’m honored to be able to call you friend. Love you, Morgan!
Tortuga—I love you, babygurl!!! My 1st NEST “Sister”. I know you were busy as well, but I’m glad we made some time for each other. Did I tell you I love your butt? 😀
Kretelis and Irishgirl—You guys are awesome! Meg—you are sweet and beautiful as always, and I really enjoyed getting to talk with you more this year. I miss you, lil sis! Hey—tell that Kelby guy he’s pretty awesome too, lol.
Ticklicious—I hope your 1st NEST was great for you! It was a pleasure getting to talk with you, and it sux that we didn’t get to go out Sat nite, but we’ll have to plan it next time!
Kraziedog—Link god, it was awesome to finally meet you. You are as wonderful in person as you are online, and I hope I get to see more of you at other gatherings. And for the record, Kansas is the “soul sucking drive” that you described…..I don’t wanna split it, you can have it, lol.
ASUtickler—Peetah! You helped me channel my “inner Queen of England” this year. I’m so happy I actually got to spend some time with you! So…….do I need to make an appointment now for some time next year? Oh……and there’s room on the Hate Couch with me and Rupert if you wanna join!
Spotman and Spotlady—It was an honor to sit next to you guys during dinner! Necia—your laugh is sooo cute! We’re totally going to have a contest next year—considering you are NOT a Ler, lol. Hey, don’t say I didn’t warn you, lol. And I’m totally going to buy your husband an OSU shirt to wear come next NEST. Especially when my boys win come Bedlam!
Ann and Drew—You guys are the greatest. Ann—you outdid yourself yet again with all the goodies you made. I’m having to work out extra hard for the rest of the year because of you, lol. Drew—try not to wake the neighbors too much when you guys get back home!
Ray and Raya—I love you both. I’m making it my #1 priortity to spend as much time as I can this year with you.
Amnesiac—You sir, are amazing! You manage to become the NEST scribe and production manager all rolled up into one, and you STILL have the greatest time despite being everywhere at NEST. I’m so happy I got to know you better throughout the year. Love you, Teddy Bear!
Robace—I still can’t believe you wore that hat all weekend, lol. I’m so happy you finally made your 1st NEST! I know we’ve been talking about it for months! I hope it was what you expected it to be and more. Love you, Mr. Tacohead!
Alchemy—I just have to say THANK YOU for being a dear friend. Not only was I lucky enough to have you for a plane companion, you made sure I got where I needed to be when I couldn’t get home Monday night. For that, I can’t thank you enough. You are what NEST and the TMF are all about. I’m so grateful to know you. Love and miss you.
And last but not least….
LeeAllure and the NEST team—You guys really REALLY outdid yourselves this year. Thank you for all your hard work to make this one of the best experiences (yeah, so I’ve only been to 2, lol). I just want you to know we all really appreciate what you do, even if we don’t say it often. Kudos to you!
If I failed to mention anyone, know that I didn’t do it on purpose, or I already responded to your Personal NEST thread.
Love and miss you guys, these next few months are gonna be hard…………
