My 3rd CBversary

Chatterbox: Down to Earth

My 3rd CBversary

My 3rd CBversary (slightly belated [LEEEAAAAAFFFFFFFPOOOOOOOLLLLL WHYYYY]) 

So. I don't know how I managed to completely forget about my 3rd CBversary, but that was supposed to be on December 1st and I didn't give it a thought. It's an honorary CBversary, because I'm not entirely sure which day I made my first post on, (although I'm searching for what I think is my first post) so it's not like it matters that much, but I'm still kind of lowkey mad at myself for forgetting about it. I've been kinda spacey lately, and I guess it happens to everyone, but I can't believe I forgot.

However....

I've now been on the CB for about 3 years!

Last year, on my 2nd CBversary, I had said that I would "save the nostalgia for my 3rd CBversary". But really...I'm not sure you all want to hear me rant again about the wars and older CBers and how somehow I conveniently managed to miss out on a lot of stuff because I was conveniently absent. Honestly, I used to be so swamped by nostalgia about the CB and CBers but I guess I have more real-life worries now, and it's been so long now since everyone disappeared and the CB changed and our wars burnt out.

I guess that's a bit of an old-grandma rant anyway, but now let's forget I just typed that and...celebrate, I guess? Or just....

Throw pies?

No. But I could link you to what I'm almost positive is my first thread. If you want to read it. It's pretty selfish. I had been looking for it for a long time, though, and searching, and then all of a sudden yesterday it just happened to turn up on Google when it hadn't before, which is odd. Here it is anyway, though. I was already Leafpool by then. I started with using my real name and initial, like the name box suggested, and then I was Dragonfire for a little bit. That was all before I really cared about the CB though, and knew what it was. I just kind of hopped on to see what it was like.

I'm pretty sure my first post was on a debate thread about Santa Claus, and I found one yesterday but it was not the right one because I'm almost certain that I replied to one of Joe Dosie Doe's comments saying something like "GUYS! THIS IS SO FUNNY!" because it got sort of funnily heated and I think people were virtually whacking each other with things.

I've got to go now, but yeah, it's been maybe 3 years, more or less. :)

Hazel says dgkm to honor my CBversary. Thanks, Hazel.

Happy CBversary, Leafy!!!!! You are such an amazing, wonderful, fantastic human being. I am so thankful to have gotten to know you over these past years! You are such a huge part of the CB in my mind. Probably because you were one of the first people I saw when I first started reading the CB. You will always be one of those people who I think about when I think 'CB'! You and so many others make up the CB's backbone and everything you do here is so beautiful!

The link you sent made me sad to see all those wonderful people who are no longer here. It's hard to be here for so long and to watch people come and go...but at least we have February 14th 2019 to look forward to! I can't wait to see all the old faces there, and to meet people who I've only heard about. 

Anyway, I hope you have a wonderful CBVersary. You are such a beautiful person, Leafy and you have helped make the CB what it is today. I love you, my friend <3

Ah, shootmuffins! I had a whole post typed up weeks ago, complete with CBerversary card, and then it deleted itself and I didn't notice until now! To sum up the post, happy Cberversary, I'm glad you're here, and have a good rest of your year. :)
