where were you? 24 nov 2004

[birdbrain]

where were you when the originators opened this site?

[hanabi]

Well I had been 38 years old for 12 days,

I was heavily pregnant with my little boy and experiencing a lot of complications

Which meant I had to attend a hospital about 40 minutes away 2 or 3 times a week

So the chances are that I was laid in a hopsital bed attached to various monitoring machines and frequent scans

My son was eventually born 19th December 2004


So I apologise for not being here guys, I guess I missed the birth of this Site

I had not even discovered Pachinko at that point...

I was working at the pawn shop and may have played one of the 2 vintage machines that I had next to the sofa. I may not have played them but at least I knew they were there

I was in Canada visiting my parents..

I was about 10 feet to the left of where I am now, but on a red couch instead of a blue chair!!

he said chair...

I was out of work, and about out of money and praying for a miracle. God provided! Then I found PachiTalk about 6 months later...He provided again...

I'm lucky to remember where I was yesterday, and you want me to go all the way back to 2004?

Cannot remember what I did last week so no chance of remembering 4 years ago.

In my case it's more like 'out of money, God provided, discovered Pachis, he taketh away!'

I was in London, staying at "The Ruben at the Palace",on Buckingham Palace Rd trying to get some sleep after having jetlag for 3 days. I barely remember seeing the changing of the guards. I do remember the music they played...James Bond tunes. Those Brits are a humorous lot. The one thing that suprised me was how much real estate are owned by the Japanese. Not a bad thing, just suprised me. I was also there when a single father dressed up as Spiderman and had taken over the tower bridge. Very cool place. Have to go back.

I got here a day early, the 23rd

and I've been hanging around ever since

Lets see, I was 2 months into my current relationship (Still going somewhat strong...), working as a rental tech at Home depot, Just winding down the warehouse operation my father and I operated and getting ready to give up the facility (I am still here working for the new people that took over my lease) Thank the Mirrion GxD that I am because it is now my primary source of income with the job market in the Cornhole.

Helping get everything ready for Thanksgiving, then went out. The night before Thanksgiving is traditionally one of the biggest party nights of the year.
