It is a pleasure. Johnsblond you are such a valuable asset to this sight I am at a loss as to what to say. You represent the way it should work. A fair open expression of opinions from someone with a nutjob of a husband.

Thanks for always making me feel better, more thoughtful and at least more open to another view.

Congrats!!!!!

Yay! The first 10K couple!

Les's avatar

You rock. Congratulations, and let the good times roll!

evelyns_pet_zebra's avatar

YAY!!! The better half of the IL couple that keeps us in stitches around here has gained 10K notoriety. Congrats girl, you are a true asset to the Fluther community. and your other half ain’t so bad either. =)

Absotivley I would!

@jonsblond has been one of the most consistent and thoughtful jellies since her arrival on the scene (in the lagoon?).

Sure, together with @blondesjon they’re a rocking good time – but by herself, it’s clear this is a woman of quiet confidence who knows what she wants, how to articulate it and is more than capable of keeping her other-half in line (much for his own benefit).

Congratulations to you my dear and to the first Fluther Power Couple.

@Dog: Great catch!

J, you manage to be hilarious and fun and still thoughtful and respectful….a line most of us fail to walk. We’re lucky to have you :)

@Tink1113 ~You slept last night didn’t you? You snooze you lose! :)

@jonsblond I wait to read your responses when you are composing and love your perfect blend of humor and wisdom.

@blondsjon I deeply regret missing your party. Your lightning-quick wit always makes me laugh.

A great big congratulations for you!

Do you get lurve every time you switch your avatar? Is that how you got to 10K?

Deepness's avatar

Running 10k is good. Ever since I hurt my foot, I can’t run any more. Congrats!

Jude's avatar

Congratulations!! When I first showed up on the scene here at Fluther, I was going through a pretty crappy break-up, and let’s just say, I had just about lost my head. Jonsblond was so helpful and kind in responses (even though what I was saying at the time may have sounded ridiculous) and she even took the time to send me a pm or two with some good advice and support. She gave out such a warm welcome and, I find that she is like that with everyone….She’s a jewel of a jelly!

Allie's avatar

Oh man! In remembrance of the Peanuts avatars they had for a day: It’s party time now!

Congrats!

aprilsimnel's avatar

YIPPEE!! It’s like a Reese’s cup!

IBERnineD's avatar

YAY Blondesjon + Jonsblond!!!! They always have awesome answers to all my questions :) I just made cupcakes, so I will eat three on their behalf! (because I am THAT nice!)

autumn43's avatar

Congratulations, jonsblond! Always like to ‘hear’ what you have to say. And to get pancakes in honor of your accomplishment? BONUS!

casheroo's avatar

Yay!! Congratulations!
I’ve enjoyed you since the first day I joined, you were so welcoming. I also found that we have a lot of parenting tactics in common, and I know I could always turn to you for advice in regards to that. Thanks!!

Congratulations to a thoroughly “lurvable” jelly. I love reading your answers and look forward to your questions. It has been great finding out the things we have in common.

May you and BJ lay naked on each other many times in the near future.

When I first encountered @Blondesjon he was sporting a Clyde or Beatty as Clyde avatar. Now Beatty is a handsome man, but Faye Dunaway as Bonnie is gorgeous and when that movie came out, I was a teenager and fell in love with her. And I loved seeing Faye all over fluther with posts that were freindly and fun, caring and considerate. I picked up pretty quickly that, first and foremost, this was a wonderful and proud mother who loves her kids and I imagine her kids rightly believe she is the best mom in all the world. And, she is obviously madly in love with her husband and he likewise with her and with all that love, I doubt I’m alone in feeling that this has got to be the family you would want to be close to, from sharing vacations, to Super Bowl parties, to PTA meetings and community events.

Not that @jonsblond doesn’t have a wild side…I picture her with a mischievous sparkle in her eyes. She’ll play tag post with BJ on occasion, but she is independent and sharp as a whip. She is in tune with the times and timely with the tunes with a wonderful eclectic taste of music. She knows food and she knows beaches. And I’ve also noticed that she is frequently the first jelly to throw in some needed light humor when a thread gets a bit tense or out of whack or comfort a jelly that may be feeling down or picked on. And because of all that and more, everybody lurves her.

To the, by far, better half of the fine fluther couple, the half that I first befriended and love to trade jabs with, and the only other person on fluther, besides me, that can say they have had BJs genitalia spill from their lips (& what a mark of distinction, that is), CONGRATULATIONS @jonsblond on your well deserved 10K lurve milestone. Now I’m not going to tell the others up there in the 10K Lurve Lounge to move up and make room for you because I know BJ has undoubtedly already saved you a chair and will be proudly escorting you on up there, but you might mention to the others to prepare for tea time….everyone’s favorite Brit, @richardhenry, should be along shortly! Sending much lurve….Gary aka wtf

jonsblond's avatar

Just a quick thank you for all of the kind words. I’m busy doing mommy stuff at the moment but I promise to join the party this evening. :) Thank you everyone!

cak's avatar

WOOHOO! Oh yeah, my wonderful fluther friend! I’m so excited – now we can share a room. ;~)!!! Congrats, my dear friend. :)

Blondesjon's avatar

It’s about time.

You got my fuckin’ dinner ready yet woman!?!

SuperMouse's avatar

@jonsblond Peppermint Patty has spoken! Take off your shoes, turn off the computer and get into the kitchen!

jonsblond's avatar

@SuperMouse I’m standing in the kitchen at this moment with my iPod touch in one hand and spatula in the other. How’s that for talent!

SuperMouse's avatar

@jonsblond very impressive!

tinyfaery's avatar

Shouldn’t he be cooking you dinner?

Judi's avatar

Woot woot!!!!!

chyna's avatar

Yea Jonsblond! You are absolutely one of my most favorite jellies. Without you fluther would be a dark place. I am truly glad to have met you and love reading your posts. I hate that I maxed out on lurve for you long ago. Cake for all!

ubersiren's avatar

Hooray! You caught the hang-10k wave and rode it to shore. You smoked the pipeline of lurve. You wiped out the competition. You… are apparently surfing in this metaphor.

rooeytoo's avatar

Ohhhhhhhh I was watching and watching, hoping I would be here to see it, but the curse of living on the other side of the world (and time zone) caught me again.

I am sorry I slept through it, but Jonsblond congratulations and good on ya!!!

Jeruba's avatar

Great news! Great going. Individually and collectively, you two bring both insight, humor, and warmth to the flutherpage. And I love the way you change your avatars all the time, yet stay thematically close. Congratulations!

jamielynn2328's avatar

You are one of the first people I noticed when I arrived, congratulations!!!!

suzyq2463's avatar

10K (and beyond) for jonsblond! Hurray! May your “Ks” keep multiplying.

i’m late, too (don’t worry, it’s not yours)

congrats!

jonsblond's avatar

I never thought that I would make so many friends here at Fluther. When I first joined I didn’t know what to expect. Every single one of you grew on me and I lurve you all for being the wonderful people that you are.

You helped me. Inspired me. Made me laugh. Made me think. You brightened my day. Every one of you make Fluther my home away from home. I think Led Zeppelin said it best:

Bright light almost blinding,
Black night still there shining,
I cant stop, keep on climbing,
Looking for what I knew.

Had a friend, she once told me,
you got a friend, you aint lonely,
Now shes gone and left me only
Looking for what I knew.

Mmm, Im telling you now,
The greatest thing you ever can do now,
Is trade a smile with someone whos blue now,
Its very easy just.

Met a man on the roadside crying,
Without a friend, theres no denying,
Youre incomplete, theyll be no finding
Looking for what you knew.

So anytime somebody needs you,
Dont let them down, altho it grieves you,
Some day youll need someone like they do,
Looking for what you knew.

Well, I missed the party on this one, but I saw you had over 10k and had to come looking for it. Of course you have my congratulations.
