Okay, I removed AEZ from the box on a request from Cheesy - apparently she has voluntarily left the site and can no longer receive PMs through here or post here.

She has told the moderators she will honor commitments she made before leaving, so if you need to reach her about a book of hers you took from the box, PM her through BC or email her (I have it if you need it, but I'm not posting it here).

I'll take my turn tomorrow - I don't have time to look at the books right now.

Wow. I am a really crappy box host this month.

I'm sorry guys. I've gotten my full availability at Target the past couple of weeks, and combined with learning my still new job, and actually managing to stick to my exercise plan, I'm exhausted, and I forgot all about coming back here. :blush:

I'm not able to make my move tonight, so I'm PMing Tribefan, and if she gets in before I get back, I get bumped to the bottom.

(Hey, at least you can't say I'm not fair... I'm bumping myself!! :rofl:)

elsi - March 20, 2008 12:43 PM (GMT)
Just checking in to see what's going on. (Actually, I'm "shopping" -- trying to decide what I want to take out of the box when it becomes my turn.)

teachie - March 20, 2008 06:15 PM (GMT)
This bookbox seems a little "stuck". :shrug:

shaunesay - March 20, 2008 06:31 PM (GMT)
Hmmm... Pepper said she was PM'ing Tribefan, and Tribe has not shown, so I'm going to say they both get bumped (but I will leave their current numbers in place so we know if Pepper decides to put people back and that will make it Lexi's turn.

Hey guys, I hope no one minds, but I'm going to give Appa until 5PM EST on Monday to make her move before I bump her. I know that's over her 48 hours, but given that it's a holiday weekend, and she wasn't notified until Good Friday, it is conceivable that she won't be able to get to a computer due to Easter stuff.

If she hasn't made her move by the time I get home from work on Monday, though, she is bumped. :D

Sorry guys for not being here to make my turn! I've been down with the flu! I am still pretty sick but managed to drag myself to the computer long enough to let you all know what's up! It sucks to, because there's a book in this box I really want! :cry: Maybe I'll be lucky and it'll still be there in the end!

Hope you get to feeling better Tribe. There are tons of nasty bugs going around right now. :hug:

Wow, so far I'm the only one who actually took a book out of the box that wasn't mine? :P

Hi guys. Please could I be bumped to the bottom? I've also had some horrible lurgy and I've really fallen behind with my work, so I won't have much time for fun stuff this week.

Sure! I'm not going to update now b/c I don't have Appa's BCIDs, but if either Appa or Teachie updates, I'm sure one of them can take care of it. :D (Or whoever updates after we get Appa's BCIDs for that matter. :D)
