Sweet Planet Poems 
I have read so many articles regarding the blogger lovers
except this article is truly a good paragraph, keep it up.
Hello dear Pen! Love it when you visit! Thank you so much for these beautiful wishes. I do hope 2014 is a good year for all of us. Thinking of you…
and here I am again, Monica, pushing my face into the lovely thick fur… dropping by to wish you and yours a wonderful Christmas time and the happiest of New Years. I hope 2014 is a good one for us all. xxPenxx
Naughty but nice, dear Andro. Thanks for your visit, my friend. Hoping your end-of-summer days are perfect ones.
I hope that you are enjoying a beautiful start to your week Monica, hopefully with lots of thrills and exciting moments to fill both the days and evenings with pure delight 🙂 😉 Yes I am being a tad naughty there but not too wicked, well perhaps just a bit 😉 lmao
Be Good, Very Good, or Else? 😉
Andro xxxx
Dear Andro, I feel the same and so appreciate your kind thoughts and visits, as well as enjoying my visits to you!
Thank you for all the lovely thoughts you added to my Space
Monica, I always look forward to your visits and you are very
welcome in my Space my sweet friend 🙂 🙂
I hope that your Monday has been an enjoyable one 🙂
Andro xxxx
Welcome, dear Andro, and thank you. We are back after visiting family on the East Coast. I’ll be calling on you, friend.
Have a very nice and relaxing weekend Monica,
and thank you for calling into my Space, it is always
so very nice to see you my great friend 🙂
Andro xxxx
I have sent you an invite to my New Space today Monica
My Gothic Realm is now deleted and I am building my new
one, I do hope that you will accept my invitation as you are
very welcome to call in my great friend 🙂
Geoff aka Andro xxx
Androgoth, it’s great to see you here and to be a part of your
WordPress community, too. Thanks for figuring this out.
It has been ages since I was last here Monica
but I am pleased that you are still on WP and
posting, I thought that you had left this place,
hence my surprise to see all these new posts 🙂
It is very nice to see you again Monica 🙂 🙂
Andro xxx
Hallo Klaus, ich vermisste dein Kommentar – ich entschuldige mich! Es ist jetzt sehr heiß hier! und bei dir?
Dear Bill, You are so kind and gracious! It was a wonderful visit and, yes, we can’t wait so long between them. Love to you and Miriam and happy birthday wishes to you! Love, Monica
What a wonderful webpage. Enjoyed the pictures and commentary. We were so happy for your Beverly Hills visit with Trixie. It was so nice of you to brave the freeways to see us. Thank you so much. It was such a pleasant visit including the piano concert. Look forward to seeing you again, but not so long between visits if possible.
With love,
Bill Feuer and Miriam
Wünsche dir einen schönen Montag und eine gute Woche,habe ja noch einen 2Bog schau mal rein,habe deine Winterbilder noch mal bewundert,bei dir muss es doch auch sehr kalt sein wir haben zur Zeit so um 8 Grag minus,man ist sowas gar nicht gewöhnt sei ganz herzlichst gegrüsst Klaus

Androgoth, my friend! Good wishes to you in the coming week. Can it be February already? The year is flying…
Talia, you are amazingly intuitive! I am well, have also gone to ground on a creative spree. Soon to give birth – I hope you will like it. And I hope you are also well and thriving.
I hope that you are enjoying a wonderful weekend Monica 🙂 😉
Androgoth XXx
Hello Monica, my friend.
Are you well or have you gone to ground in a creative spree?
Take care. x
Talia.
Hello Androgoth! Thank you and Merry Christmas to you! Santa squirrel is a very cute fellow – how did you (or another?) ever get the shot? Have wonderful holidays, my friend!
An early Christmas Pressie for you Monica 🙂
I do hope that you are being good, well at least
trying to be anyway 🙂 lol
A very Merry Christmas to you Monica 🙂
Androgoth XXx
Dear Androgoth, Thank you my friend for your visits and holiday wishes. I hope your holidays are as excellent as you could wish for! I’m having trouble accessing, not just your blog, but my own as well! The blogless blogger – now that’s sad.
I hope you are getting ready for Santa Clause
Monica? 🙂 Yes get your stocking up and be a
very, very good girl or else? 🙂 lol
Androgoth XXx
Bluebee, it was. I wish I had had my camera along to take pictures of the hall and the cast at curtain call. (People all around me were doing that.) That Rene Pape was a force to be reckoned with.
That’s sound likes a wonderful modern take on Faust, Monica – what a hoot! Well…as much of a hoot as Faust can be 🙂
Hello my friend Androgoth! Thank you for your fine wishes and hoping your holiday season is everything you could hope for!
I hope that you are getting ready for Santa
and have already popped your stocking on
the wall ready for filling with all of your most
wanted gifts 🙂 Well be good or you won’t be
getting any… Pressies I meant cheeky 🙂 lol
Androgoth XXx
Hi Bluebee! We saw Faust at the Met! Rene Pape was Mephistopheles, with a voice that’s deeper than deep and a very natty dresser to boot! Singing that the golden calf is still worshiped, he turns water in the office cooler to red – wine supposedly, but it looked like blood. Then he proceeds to ruin Marguerite utterly. 4 hours of glorious singing.
I thought that may be the case, Monica – patience is a tall order, indeed, when it comes to these things.
How wonderful to have been to see family in NYC and to have been to the opera there! I am envious 😀 Which one did you see?
Glad to see that you’re OK
bb
xx
Dear Bluebee, My one-track mind is running along a wolf track, as you may have guessed. I’m trying to decide how to be focused, effective, and patient – a tall order! Other than that, I have just returned from seeing family, friends, and the opera in NYC! So amazing! Very best wishes to you, dear friend.
Hugs to you, too, jasmin, and thank you!
Hello, Monica – I do hope that all is well with you.
Best

Skeleton and enjoy your weekend 🙂
Androgoth XXx
Have a lovely start to your week Monica and
be very well my great friend 🙂
Androgoth XXx
I hope that you enjoyed the wedding Monica 🙂
Have a wicked rest of weekend with lashings of
everything that you enjoy the most, but don’t be
tooooooooooooo greedy now 🙂 lol Just kidding…
Androgoth XXx
Dear Androgoth, Your good wishes are so very much appreciated!! The same to you, my Gothic friend. We are still in the mountains after a glorious wedding!! The best to you – Monica
I hope that you will be back posting again soon Monica
in the meantime have a delightful rest of day and a wicked
evening also… I mean is there really any other kind? 🙂 lol
Androgoth XXx
I hope that you are enjoying a
lovely start to your weekend Monica? 🙂

WUENSCHE DIR EUINE GUTE NACHT UND FUER MORGEN EINEN GUTEN WOCHEN ANFANG JASMIN
You are welcome my great friend,
and I hope that you will be back here,

Androgoth, I was just thinking about you! Hoping your weekend is wickedly good as well and thanking you so much for your kind wishes!
I am just calling by to wish you a
wickedly fine weekend Monica 🙂
i hope that you are very well my
wickedly fine friend 😉
Androgoth XXx
Dear Bluebee, We did not feel the quake to the south here, but my son called from NY to say he had left the swaying 40th floor of his building and was now at home. How did he get there? The subway! Thank you so much for asking – all seems to be well. Best to you, my friend.
Hello Monica
Saw the reports in the NYTimes this morning about the quakes across the States :-(, including your part of the country, so just wanted to say hope all is well with you under the circumstances.

Dear Pen, Thank you for this lovely comment. A wedding in exactly 2 weeks! I hope and expect that everything will be fine, all sides of the family will get along nicely. But there’s a lot of fretting going on, too, for reasons that have no explanation. Your good wishes are very much appreciated, and I look forward to enjoying your postings again soon.
HI there Monica, just dropping by on this sunny Summer day,(Sunday is living up to it’s name 🙂 )
to say how are you and yours?.. Hope things are ok, and I see from bb’s comment that you’ll be celebrating a wedding soon, lovely times, as there’s nothing quite like one for a full feeling of happiness and joy for the future. Have a wonderful time my lovely friend, lots of hugs. xPenx
hallo liebe freundin wuensche dir eine gesunde nacht ruhe alles liebe von jasmin damaro
Many thanks, Bluebee.
Well, that is wonderful, Monica – enjoy this special time 🙂
bb

Thank you, thank you, and all good wishes to you, too, Androgoth. Hoping to catch up in a few weeks.
Hi Bluebee, Your good wishes are most appreciated! Wedding is in 3 weeks – first Sunday in September. Things are hurtling along nicely. Enjoy your beautiful spring. Respite and rebirth. Fall is beautiful here, too, and then we know what comes. No choice but to enjoy it. Best — Monica
Hello Monica
Just popping in (regrettably, not for tea) to say I hope you are well – I see from Androgoth’s comment that you have a family wedding celebration on the calendar – hope it is, or was, fabulous.
An indicator of early spring here this morning in the form of an attack of the hayfevers – nevertheless, it is the season I most love, so am looking forward to it, sniffles and all 😉

herzliche gruesse an euch aus belgien ostende alles liebe jasmin
I am sure that you will be fine my great friend,
just slip into your most favoured outfit and have
a wondrously enjoyable and more importantly
A Very Happy Day on the Wedding 🙂
Androgoth XXx
This lovely message is most appreciated, Androgoth! I do hope my nerves hold out through the ceremony. As for the outfits, how did you know what was on my mind? I bought a suit when the weather was freezing, and now it seems way too hot! Can’t find what I want, either. Coming up soon – must behave.
Auch ich gruesse dich, Jasmin!
LASSE DIER LIEBE GRUESSE DA UND MORGEN EINEN TOLLEN SONNIEGEN WOCHEN ANFANG VON JASMIN DAMARO KISSSSS
I hope that your weekend
has been an excellent one Monica 🙂
Androgoth XXx
That other one was supposed to read ‘Have A Great Rest of Weekend’ but with my Anglo-Russian-Italian keyboard it was gaga… lol I hope that your nerves are holding for the wedding ceremony and wickedly excellent festivities to follow? Of course you are, though I would imagine that you have another twenty different outfits standing by just in case you cannot make up your mind on the day 🙂 lol Just kidding Monica and do have a lovely Thursday with lashings of wickedness thrown in for good measure…
Be Good, Be Happy and most importantly Behave Yourself 🙂 lol
Androgoth XXx
Have a great rest of evening and
an excellent weeke ahead…
Be well now Monica 🙂
Androgoth XXx
hallo monika mal liebe wordpress gruesse an dich wuensche dier ein sonnieges wochen ende alles liebe von jasmin damaro
Thank you, Androgoth, for these refreshingly cool wishes! I am getting a little distracted now – this may last for another month or so. I hope you have a wickedly enjoyable weekend yourself!
I am just calling by to make sure that YOU
are being GOOD, and to wish you a very nice,
wicked, cool, exciting day and a wondrously
delightful Yabba-Dabba-Doo evening too 🙂
Androgoth XXx
Androgoth, I love your comment! This is exactly so, and I hope to be ready. And remain calm. Best to you, my friend!
The Wedding Creepeth Nearer Monica…
I hope that you are ready for all the wickedness? 😉
Androgoth XXx
Thank you for calling into My Gothic Realm Monica,
I do hope that your eyes are a lot better soon and that
the heat isn’t too unbearable, here it is rather windy with
lots of rain, hardly a ghoulishly hot summer but with your
description I think that we shouldn’t complain…
Do have a lovely rest of day / evening and of course
a fangtastic Thursday filled with all the wickedness that
you enjoy the most… Be well my great friend
Androgoth XXx
I hope that your Monday
is a really good one Monica…
Androgoth XXx
Yes just don’t stand
on a twig or anything… lol
Thank you for calling by
my wonderful great friend…
Androgoth XXx
Shushing as I creep by? Love this image, Androgoth
Yes call by anytime, you are always welcome
inside My Gothic Realm and as the Ghouls and
Skeletons, Werewolves and Vampires have got
used to you I think that creeping past the tombs
will be much easier now… Just don’t trip over any
wayward Skeleton bones and you will be fine… lol
Have a great Friday evening and a fangtastic
weekend too… Hope it is a wicked one for you
Androgoth XXx
Dear Androgoth, Thank you so much for your wonderful wishes! Lots of family and wine tasting!! I’m looking forward to getting back in touch next week on WordPress! Best to you – Monica
Just calling by to wish you a wonderfully exciting
Thursday Monica… I hope you have been having
the most wicked of times… Be very well now
Androgoth XXx
I hope that you are having a wickedly nice entertaining
kind of weekend Monica, lots of shopping and wine tasting,
amongst all the wicked chatting and… Well with family in
town it must be a funtastic time for you… I hope? lol
Just as long as you have been good that is the main thing? lol
Androgoth XXx
Yes it won’t be long now to the big day,
actually all that wine tasting will be wicked…
perhaps even a tad exciting… Well maybe?
Have a lovely weekend Monica…
Androgoth XXx
Hello Goth Prince, We have family in town, will taste wines for the wedding. What fun! I hope your weekend is splendid – love those graphics – thank you!
lol
Androgoth ; )
Have a sweet and most deliciously
fine tuned Friday Monica… Be good too… lol
Androgoth XXx
Hi Androgoth, Thank you as well for your visits. You have been exceeding even your highly-imaginative self with your posts! We will head to the mountains for the long Independence Day weekend. Now what is that we are celebrating…??? (Perhaps it’s not polite to discuss it.)
Thank you for calling into My Gothic Realm Monica,
I know that you must be busy with your work, but do
take advantage of your nights of leisure whenever an
opportunity presents itself… All work and no play is…
Well the pits as they say… lol
Try being good now…
Androgoth XXx
Dear Androgoth, And the same to you, my friend! I am around and working on various projects. I hope to be back to check on you and my other WordPress friends soon. Very good wishes…
Have a most wonderful weekend Monica, hey where are you?
I hope that you are very well and enjoying yourself beyond your
most wildest dreams… Well whatever you are getting up to, do
have a deliciously enjoyable weekend…
Not long now before your son ties the knot…
Androgoth XXx
I am just calling by to wish you a
wicked rest of day and evening Monica
Be very well my great friend…
Androgoth XXx
I am just calling by to wish you a wonderful Wednesday Monica
and don’t forget to take some time out to chill with a nice glass of
the Red stuff… Something with a Vampire perhaps? lol
Androgoth XXx
Have a lovely Wednesday Monica…
And be good too, if you can I mean? lol
Androgoth XXx
Thank you for calling by Monica and yes the Goblets, and Bottles of Vampire Wine are a nice background, in fact those a enhanced a little further now as I have been once again tweaking my Space… lol
Have a wonderful rest of evening and
equally a Ghoulishly excellent weekend too
Androgoth XXx
Have a wonderful rest of day and equally
a delightful evening Monica, I hope that
you are very well my great friend…
Androgoth XXx
It is on the mend now
and thank you for asking…
Androgoth XXx
You as well – but how is the foot?
No I was having a bit
of a Chocolate Egg Hunt… lol
Androgoth XXx
Have a most exciting weekend Monica…
Androgoth XXx
Did you trip over something Jen left around? Uh oh.
Yes I did… Actually I should say so
instead of joking around lol Well I
am the Jolly Vampire so I do like to
have a laugh, even when the joke is
on me… lol Thank you for your nice
wishes Monica you are a true friend
Androgoth XXx
So you really did hurt your foot? I couldn’t quite tell from the post if that was real or imagined. I hope it’s better soon!
I am just stopping by, limping by actually… lol
To wish you a really wonderful rest of day, a wicked
evening and fangtastic Easter weekend…
Have lots of fun and be good too… lol
Androgoth XXx
Hi Jen, Thank you, and you as well. What’s happening with you? I am crazily busy right now but trying to enjoy it. Happy spring! I bet England is SO beautiful.
just came to say have a great week xxjen
Hi Androgoth, I like that “Hawaii are you”! It was snowing when we returned – hard to make the adjustment. I hope you are very well yourself!
Just take in all the scenes of Hawaii
though I am sure that your vacation has
already been one to remember…
Have a fine rest of holiday Monica
Androgoth XXx
Hi there Androgoth, Thanks for visiting and sending me your good wishes! Tropical lethargy is setting in, and I’m finding it hard to move. Perhaps it’s good that the return to reality approaches. Best to you — Monica
Hawaii
Are you Monica…
I hope that you are enjoying your vacation,
all that Sun bathing, swimming, partying and…
Well whatever you like I guess? lol
Just remember the Vampire code…
Be Good Now
Androgoth XXx
Dear Androgoth, Thank you so much for this lovely message. We are in Hawaii, enjoying the water and more humid air – so different from home. In fact everything is different – the birds, the plants, the food. I look at the ocean and can’t forget how powerful it is – such beauty and power. And such fragility, too.
Very best to you, my friend, and I look forward to catching up soon.
I hope that you are enjoying a holiday somewhere nice, and not poorly or anything as you have not been on WordPress for some time now… If you are on holiday then we can all look forward to some of your wondrously created photograph’s and of course your poetry my wicked great friend… Come back soon Monica, or else? lol
Androgoth XXx
Hi Jen, Just replying now – I feel kind of stupid. I tried to check out your blog, like I always do when a new person visits, and got stumped. Simpler to just say thanks for visiting and leaving your very fine comment!
So much the better!
Yes and a bit Crackers too… lol
Have a lovely Tuesday now Monica…
Androgoth XXx
Hi Androgoth, Thanks for giving a bit of an insight into what you do when not composing wickedly wild poetry and stories! Eccentric always, one hopes!
I am just calling by before I slip off the lid, no it’s not
been snowing I was just… Well being a tad silly I guess,
or eccentric could be a closer description? lol Right I
will just say have a fine rest of evening and attempt to
take off from this wobbling washing line… lol
Wobble, Wobble…. lol
Be Good Now Monica…
Androgoth XXx
Yes, Androgoth – no problem. Thanks for making sure – I wouldn’t want to miss your postings. I’m sorry you felt the need to go private. Perhaps a perfect world would also have more of a sense of humor.
I have just changed my Space to Private and want to know
if you can get into it okay? If you can leave a reply here on this comment…
Thank you Monica
Have a lovely day today
Androgoth XXx
I’m pretty sure you are always up to something of interest.
the wonder of wickedness – how did I miss this, Androgoth?!
I am always up to something… lol
Just Kidding
Androgoth XXx
Thank you, Androgoth – I hope your week is excellent and that you are up to something interesting this early spring.
Have a wickedly exciting week Monica,
I look forward to reading your next posting…
Androgoth XXx
Pen, this is gorgeous! Beauty, indeed — thank you!!
Hm? A bit mesmerising and unsettling and I’d rather it stopped when the petals unfolded fully, but at least the link worked… Yipppee!! 😀 xx
Hello there Monica, just dropping by to say hi and to leave this present for you…I’m trying out embedding link, rather than leaving the ‘ugly’ looking detailed ones… Lets see it this works…Beauty unfolding, for Monica … Have a wonderful day my friend…xPenx
Have a lovely start to your
week Monica and enjoy the
wonder of wickedness…
Androgoth XXx
Have a most delightful rest of day Monica
and equally a fine and relaxing evening… Be well
Androgoth XXx
Just calling by to wish you a wonderful
evening and weekend Monica… Be good now
Androgoth XXx
Hello Androgoth, I also look forward to your Gothic offerings.
Just calling by to wish you a fine Thursday Monica,
I shall have to find some Gothic humour to add on my
Pages, nothing too scary or frighteningly dire, or even
a tad naughty either… lol Have a ghoul of a day today
and I look forward to your next blogging genius…
Androgoth XXx
Dear Androgoth, Thank you for your kind wishes – you as well.
Do have a most exquisite rest of day Monica
and equally a very exciting evening to follow…
Androgoth XXx
Hi Pen, Yes, it did work! Lots to celebrate – have a great weekend yourself.
So it did work, Monica, BUT the only problem was my mobile didn’t have enough memory to let me see any photo’s…so I won’t be using again in a hurry…I definitely want to view all your lovely pictures… Off to watch The Manchester Untied FA Cup game against Crawley now….Come on the reds!!! 🙂 xx
Hi Monica: Great News About The British Governments Change Of Heart Re: Selling Off Our Forests : Wonderful That The Power Of The People Won Through : Have A Wonderful Weekend My Friend : xPenx
(sending this comment via my mobile: hope it works ¤ )
I was here this afternoon, but had a quilting project to finish, so just pulled your address on to my desktop. It made me laugh to see your comments in my mail when I came back on later.
You have been added to my reader, and yes, I do believe we share interests.
Have a lovely Friday evening Monica
and an equally enjoyable and Fun Weekend…
Be Good Now…
Androgoth XXx

To Add… Well If Not Interesting, Something
Wicked Instead… Be Very Well Now Monica.
Androgoth XXx
Here’s hoping that your Monday is
starting out in an excellent fashion,
have lots of fun now and remember…

Androgoth XXx
Nice to have you back, Androgoth. You have been busy of late with a life outside of WordPress. How naughty.
Have a very nice and relaxing
rest of evening Monica, be very well now…
Androgoth XXx
Have a fangtastic week Monica with lashings of
fun, wickedness and goodness of health all rolled
into one… Be good now
Androgoth XXx
Hi Monica.
Thank you so much for your comments about my Dad, it was so nice of you to take the time. I hope that maybe you are right. Had a quick look at some of your writings, will come back and have a longer look another day. xxMarjie xx
Hi Androgoth, Thanks for being your nicely wicked self.
Have A Wicked Wednesday
Now Monica… I Always Do… lol
Androgoth XXx
Hi Pen, I googled JD to see what I could come up with and found nothing but fan clubs. There has to be another way. Send a letter to him care/of his movie studio? You are very resourceful, so you will figure something out. I have the feeling he would be delighted with your prose and poetry. Happy happy 2011!!
Hope this year is a good one, my friend, thank you for calling round ( that sounds great, as if we’re neighbours 😀 ) … and for your continued support and lovely comments.
Happy New Year, Monica… Cheers to you and your loved ones.. xPenx
hi there Monica,
thanks for dropping by, and glad you enjoyed my little poem, and the marrow link!! I just couldn’t believe it when I found it…Marrow Rum?…and the rest!! made me laugh my socks off…(put them straight back on though…freezing around here!!)
and I wish I knew how to send a direct link to JD, Wow, wouldn’t that be something?
I’d faint with delight and total shock!! 😀
take care my friend…. hope you had a wonderful Christmas, xPenx
Gorgeous, Pen! I want to fall into that deep blue color. Wishing you and Bess warm and wonderful holidays and a fine New Year. (I guess the warmth will come from the heart – not the outdoors.)
Just dropping by to wish you and yours a Wonderful Christmas and a Happy New Year for 2011, Hope Santa brings you all you could wish for…
hugs from Pen ‘n Bess…..xx
Hope you’re having a wicked week so far Monica, it’s still a tad cold here in the UK but I have my thermal gloves and hat at the ready so no problemo…
Be good now it’s nearly Santa Claws time…
Androgoth XXx
Hi Androgoth, So good to hear from you. Thanks also for your nice comment about my posts. I’m enjoying the give and take of our posts and comments very much.
Pen, this is great! Thanks – I love it.
Thought I’d leave this in your Guestbook, Monica, hope it works, I find I sometimes still pick the wrong ‘link’ … no matter how much I practice… 😀
I found it on Photobucket and ‘borrowed’ it…and here it is for you…now you’re an “accessory after the fact ” … 😉 hugs to you….. xPenx
I am just calling by to wish you a most
wonderful rest of evening and excellent weekend…
Androgoth XXx
Hi you two. Thanks for coming by and leaving such nice comments.
just called by to say hello great site love all the wildlife and nature blogs xxjen
Have a lovely Wednesday my wickedly fine friend…
Androgoth XXx
Hi, Pen. I love seeing the film through your eyes! Yes, the Mad Hatter was glorious, and the Red Queen, too. I didn’t realize who she was until the end. Alice, too – so beautiful in blue. I will have to rent Beetlejuice. My only complaint – I guess I’m old-fashioned — is: why does everything have to be a battle? Couldn’t we just row down the river and dream? Best…Monica
thanks for dropping by Monica, and glad you enjoyed the photo’s of Bess. AS to Johnny Depp, well, I know that a phone call would be a miracle… 😉 , and I’m not holding my breath or anything,… sorry, went off into a daydream there!!… Loved Alice in Wonderland, and I think the whole production was spot on, capturing the total over-the-top madness of the fantasy story, (how could it not with Tim Burton directing? Love his dark and disturbing Gothic type films.) …and Johnny as The Mad Hatter, somehow getting across the sadness and vulnerability of the character through all that fantastic madness and over the top make-up … plus those eyes!! I have the DVD and I could watch him ..er.. I mean of course, 😉 ….the film again and again…The large headed Red Queen, was glorious… and well played by Helena Bonham Carter, (she’s also married to Tim Burton, and I would love to be a fly on the wall in their house, must be magic!!) One of my top ten favourites I think. Did you enjoy it?..
xPenx
(I have a love of the strange films,….like Beetlejuice.. I know Johnny wasn’t in it…but Michael Keaton took the film to another level, and the premise of the story was fantastic. The scenes in the ‘afterlife waiting room’ take a numbered ticket, were a scream… )
Hi Monica, no you’re not cracking up and neither is WordPress ‘Castle of Blood’ was a Script that I had already offered here, it is I that goofed up… lol Though the title is still available to view if you wish to read it and is easily found with a little back tracking (It was published here on the 20th October 2010)… Thank you for asking me about this one and I hope that it is worthy of your time upon finding it… Have a lovely rest of day now my wicked young friend…
Androgoth XXx
Thank you, Pen. Wouldn’t it be great if you could drop over for dinner?
Happy Thanksgiving to you and yours Monica..
and thank you for sharing your writings and thoughts too…It’s always a pleasure to drop by Sweet Planet Poems, …. and strange to think of the winding path which brings people together, at a certain time, certain place…a connection through the ‘airwaves’…Wonderful technology I say!!.. 😀
Glad to be part of your life, my friend.. xPenx
Dear Friends,
We are getting ready to celebrate Thanksgiving in the US. It’s a day (weekend) for getting together with family and friends and celebrating the blessings in our lives. I just wanted to let you know that I’m very grateful for you, your writing, your ideas and comments, and for having you be part of my life. Thank you!! Monica
Wow, what a terrific idea. That’s as creative as the other things I see you doing. I like the idea of a “trashing” sound effect. You mean you write comments to yourself? Love it!
I felt the same, Monica… so I registered a new blog, (under the ‘my blogs’ link) and have a separate 2nd blog to play about with (themes, widgets..etc) no subscribers, and I can make mistakes and therefore learn what not to do…. and if I make an error…’trashing’ sounds so delicious…in fact there should be a great sound effect to go with it!! I’ve even started ‘talking to myself’ too, much, much cheaper than therapy. 😉 xPenx
I LOVE having you, Lady Pen, and my other dear friends come by — anytime. So much fun to hear from you. It scared me a little to create this new page, since I always seem to goof something up along the way. This time things went reasonably smoothly.
Hi Monica,
Yes I have been really busy of late and so I missed out on getting here first, but how wicked of Lady Penelope to slip a comment into your Guestbook before I got the chance… No chocolate pudding for her now… lol
We can now call in at anytime and add whatever we want, well within reason I mean. Thank you for calling into My Gothic Realm and reading my somewhat nonsensical scrawls, you are always welcome my wicked friend. Have a lovely rest of day and a most fangtastic evening…

Thanks, Pen, so happy you came by.
Loving the picture, Monika, can almost touch the soft fur..
ahem!! Getting sidetracked… just came round to say hi, and saw you had a new Guestbook… and of course wanted to be first in t’BOOK….Yaaay!!
and to wish you a wonderful Thursday…bye for now…Penx
