hiya to one and all,

First of all I just wanted to say how great I think everyone here is. Pixies really is like one big happy family.

Second - I need help, I have never used a PC to chat etc before and am struggling to come to terms with all of the abbreviations (why is that such a long word???).

For example I thought LOL was lots of love, imagine my embarrassment when someone pointed out it was laugh out loud/on line (I have had 2 different explanations).

So can you help, if so please list any abbreviations and the meanings.

Thanks in advance

Also this is just a WAG but, when you STM be sure to look for a SWF first and hope she hasn't been with a BM that is an SO. RU listening? If he's SorG he might look you over and take you BB while his girl has a WG while you're SOL. I'm not a WOG, but a SBM who seduces WF that are MWC.

I got to go, but I'll BBL.

Thanks very much Love Diva. One question whats the last one???

Heehee...you will have to ask a certain Pantic Fanatic that question Joshka!!
