Today is my 5 year orgaversary.

Just to be mushy for a minute, I can't believe just how much becoming a member of a random Prince fan website changed my life.

I met people from all over the world at the last 2 celebrations and quickly started posting simply to keep up with those I had so much fun with. Rio, Moonbean, TRON and Aaron were the first orgers to really make me a true addict.

Since then, I've visited orgers in Chicago, LA, Seattle, Arizona, Amsterdam, London, Manchester, Birmingham and Sheffield. I'll be adding Miami, Dallas and Thailand to that list soon enough as well.

I've also had the opportunity to show many of you in person just what I love about my home. And I look forward to many more visits in the future.

Anyway, this community we have here really is one in a million. And I just wanted to acknowledge that.


Now, who got me a present?

Orgaversary.


Congrats.

Your gift is my friendship.

You'd take advantage of any situation to open another bottle, wouldn't you?

Happy Orgversary.
5 years is a long time to be an addict. There's no cure now. Get used to it, it's the rest of your life

Happy five years, Carrie!

(ok, not a joyful song, but it's about five years anyway )

Pushing thru the market
square
so many mothers sighing
News had just come over,
we had five years left to cry in

News guy wept and told us
earth was really dying
Cried so much his face was wet
then I knew he was not lying

I heard telephones, opera house, favourite melodies
I saw boys, toys electric irons and T.V.'s
My brain hurt like a warehouse
it had no room to spare
I had to cram so many things
to store everything in there
And all the fat-skinny people, and all the tall-short people
And all the nobody people, and all the somebody people
I never thought I'd need so many people

A girl my age went off her head
hit some tiny children
If the black hadn't a-pulled her off, I think she would have killed them

A soldier with a broken arm, fixed his stare to the wheel of a Cadillac
A cop knelt and kissed the feet of a priest
and a queer threw up at the sight of that
I think I saw you in an ice-cream parlour
drinking milk shakes cold and long
Smiling and waving and looking so fine
don't think you knew you were in this song

And it was cold and it rained so I felt like an actor
And I thought of Ma and I wanted to get back there
Your face, your race, the way that you talk
I kiss you, you're beautiful, I want you to walk

We've got five years, stuck on my eyes
We've got five years, what a surprise
We've got five years, my brain hurts a lot
We've got five years, that's all we've got





I missed my five years 21 days ago

I've been on and off here since 1997 anyway.

Nermal says ´hi´

SO glad to have had the org so I could meet somebody as fab as you.

HereToRockYourWorld said:

You're even more fab, you know.

CarrieMpls said:

Lies.

Anyway, I think I registered for the org right around the time you did. It feels like longer than 5 years.

How can you forget Nermal!? The big Indian lady.
