or more like a girl's IBS slumber party! We could all bring IBS friendly food, our teapots, and a sleeping bag and pillow, and stay up all night visiting with each other. It's odd how we all feel like we know one another and we've never met. Just thinking how exciting it would be for all of us to meet someday. Maybe a beach get-together next summer should be in the works. That would motivate me to exercise and watch my weight. Ha! (Ok, so I'm reconsidering meeting my IBS friends with a bathing suit on. How bout a mountain retreat instead? That way I could wear something over my cellulite.)

.. I would love to meet everybody face to face. Logistics and finances would be the biggest problem for me seeing I'm so far away but I would give it my best shot!

That sounds wonderful - but it would be so difficult as we are all over the country.
Also - BL - don't forget about the men on the board - they should be included as well.

It would be an awesome idea since a lot of us know more about each other than our own families! Distance would be a problem for some, but hopefully we can figure out something.

Maybe we could raise money for our plane tickets by selling wrapping paper and chocolate bars.
This weekend my little nieces sucked me into buying some stuff and my gosh the mark up - I would only need to sell a few rolls of Christmas paper to get to Australia LOL
Kidding.

Honestly! Isn't that stuff ridiculously priced??? I mean I can go to the dang Dollar Store and get paper. It just gets torn up...anyway I agree. I would love to meet you guys. These boards are great and I know that we would have blast. Maybe they can be set up "regionally" as other conventions are? We could be sponsored by Celestial Seasonings Tea and Citrucel! HAHA

Or the chocolate Almonds, we could sell those to people....no I guess not the best because I would end up buying all of mine and then be too sick to come to the convention LOL

No, we can't sell chocolate almond bars. Then we would all be so fat that we would have to start responding to the Jenny Craig message board instead of the IBS board. But, the wrapping paper idea, now there's an idea! But, unfortunately, the kids in my neighborhood have already hit everyone up for this.
