The first part of thank you's are for the site and the second part are for numerous things that don't have to do with the site.

Credit to those who helped;

The most thanks goes to Jen from Hopelessly Devoted To Goo for helping me big time with this site. She recommended Angelfire and she guided me all the way through. She knew everything I was doing because her site is also built with Angelfire. Her site is a great Goo Goo Dolls site and you should definately go to it! It's awesome! Jen is very, very nice and friendly and I can't thank her enough for helping me. I really needed someone like her because I used to be absolutely horrible with computers, although I'm much better now! Thanks so much Jen!!!!! There's a link to her site on the main page, go visit it!!!!!

Thanks to Kristen from Kristen's Page O' Goo for giving me this great Goo background. I thought it looked so cool and I just had to ask her for it. I couldn't put my site out with a plain background and was searching for a long time for a perfect background and I finally found it. Thanks Kris!!!!

Thanks to Fabfay for inspiring all us Goo fans and for caring about us all! She's a really great person and is definately a true Goo fan! Thanks for your awesome site and keeping us all in touch with what's going on in Goo Goo World!!!! We really miss you!!!

Thanks so much to the wonderful Kathy for being the sweetest girl and the first one to contribute to the site! She is truly the greatest and is a kickass artist!!!!

Thanks to Robby and the Goo Goo Dolls at GooGooDolls.com for keeping us in touch with all that's Goo and for being who they are and playing the music they play!!!!

Thanks to all you guys who signed my guestbook and contributed, and for visiting my site!!!!

Thanks to the others;

Thanks to Iggy for saving my life (long story about how I found this beautiful cat who meant everything to me). Thank you for being my guardian angel and for making me stronger.

Thanks to Trusty (my babydog) for loving me more than anyone has ever loved me. Thanks for missing me when I've been gone, thanks for keeping me company on car rides, thanks for "protecting" me when a stranger is near, thanks for being worried about me when things don't seem right, thanks for getting mad when someone is tickling me or rough-housing with me and you think they are hurting me, thanks for taking walks with me, thanks for following me around the house, thanks for listening when I need someone to talk to, thanks for being a pillow for me, thanks for resting your head on my lap when I'm watching TV or reading a book, thanks for letting me hug you and kiss you, thanks for letting me cry on your shoulder, thanks for being jealous when I hold Iggy or Tom, thanks for not judging me when I make mistakes and do stupid things, thanks for not caring about the fact that I'm different, thanks for loving the fact that I'm different, thanks for giving me the blessing of listening to your soft breathing while you're wrapped in my arms, sleeping with me in my bed every night. Thank you for loving me when the rest of the world hates me.

Thanks to Cammy, who was the only person to realize that all I needed was a good friend and a hug.

Thanks to Jenny for the wonderful note that brightened up my day! I smile everytime I read it!

Thanks to Doug for inspiring me and for accepting me into his life for a short time. Thanks for driving me home when I needed a ride and for trying to help me. I really do love you! And thanks for introducing me to Blind Melon....I love them too!

Thanks to Michelle for being the greatest and nicest friend I've ever had! I know you care....you care more than anyone. I can talk to you, and you always listen. Whenever I have a problem, or I need someone to talk to, or I'm sad, or something great has happened, you're the first person I go to. You're the first person I tell, you're the first person I hug, you're the first person to hear anything from me. You're closer than a sister in my heart....and I only wish that I could be of help to you, because you are the biggest help and difference to my life. You are a really good person, the best I know.

Thanks to Ian for being so sweet to me and making me feel welcome with him. And thanks for not making me pay for your car when I wrecked it!

Thanks to Jason Hamill for saying hi to me everyday. Not once did you pass me in the hall and not smile or say hi to me. It seems like a very little thing, but it made a big difference in my life. Thank you, Jason....you've made me feel better about myself, I love you.

Thanks to my wonderful sister, Ria! You've been beside me since you were born. You've walked beside me and, despite the fact that you are younger, you've protected me in many ways. I hope that I've protected you too. You always shared as much as you could with me and you never left me lonely as a girl. I never had to search for a friend because you were always in the same room. We came to a dead end when we got older and tore each other up. Then we drifted apart for the longest time....but now I feel as if we've grown together again. I'm not sure how you feel, but I feel like we've become good friends again. Maybe I can't talk to you about everything, or tell you my deepest secrets, but I can still talk to you about fun things and have some good conversations. I'm so glad that you go to the same school as I now. I like being ditzy with you and your friends after school (i.e. skipping to the car and having Megan sit in your lap while I drive us to the front to get Stephen) and I like being able to talk to you when I pass you in the halls. I like being able to sneak a bit of lunch from you every now and then and I like asking you for money even though you never have any. I like your friends and I like the fact that they don't dislike me (unlike some of your younger friends). I like being able to talk to you about school and about the people at school at home. I like the fact that we can go shopping and tanning and so many other things together. I like having a sister so close to my age and I like being the older one. It's so much fun to hang out with you and I thank you for liking me enough to do that. I love ya sis!

Thanks to Miguelito Pimiendo....I found it strange at first that I felt such a strong specialty in you, but now I understand. You were born with something extraordinary, you have gifts that many others would be lucky to possess. I saw something incredible in you the first time I met you, and I knew you were special. You have the greatest ability to be anyone you want to be. Your maturity and intellect has so much more quality than that of others our age. You're open to what life is willing to give you without losing your sense of logic. You're one of the few people of this world to remain uncorrupted. Your heart is invested in life. You think when others don't know it. You're so genuine....you take everything you are told into consideration, and you care. You know that life is easier for some and harder for others. You have fun with the easy but aren't afraid of the hard. You approach it...you know, you must know, that the littlest things you can do mean the world to those who struggle...and they became big things. You give what you have and don't ignore what you're offered. You accept every challenge with confidence, and you don't hesitate to accept what others give you. You've shown me nothing but sincerity and kindness....you really have made a difference, and I'd have a hard time believing that you don't know that.

Thanks to Danny for being there for me since I was 5. You're one of my best friends and I've had some of the most fun with you. You're charming and you're so sweet I can taste it. You've always cared for me and you've always listened when I needed someone to talk to. I know I can tell you things and never have to worry about being judged or hated. You can always talk to me, even when I'm not here. I'll be your angel, and I'll watch over you forever. I'll wrap my arms around you and protect you....I won't let anything bad happen to you. You just have to promise to protect me too.

Thanks to Stephen for being my best friend. Thanks for being the first person to say "I love you" to me, and thank you for making me the second person you've ever said that to. Thank you for accepting me into your life and for not judging me. Thank you for cheering me up when I'm sad and for making me laugh for the first time in my life. Thank you for making me smile, something I've never been able to do. Thank you for making me able to feel happiness, something I never in my life thought I'd be able to feel. Thank you for giving me a reason to live, thank you for helping me to stay alive, thank you for caring for me, thank you for talking to me when you see me crying, thank you for giving me confidence, thank you for helping me to realize that I'm worth something and that I'm not trash, thank you for making my days worth living, thank you for giving me more than I could ever want or ever deserve, thank you for helping me forget about all the bad around me and in me, thank you for loving me, and thank you for all the hugs....no one has given me more hugs than you have.....and I love them all! And I love you.

Thanks to Cody for accepting me as a friend the first night I met you. Thanks for not judging me, thanks for making my ride with you so much fun, thanks for playing guitars with me, thanks for caring when you found out that I was sad, thanks for offering to talk with me about things, thanks for coming up to me during school and talking to me for no reason other than just to talk, thanks for giving me your great smiles!, thanks for making me laugh, thanks for giving me the best night of my life, thanks for helping me realize that I have so many people who care about me....and that they're all that matters. Thanks for liking me and being my friend. I think I have a crush on you now!

This is going to seem weird, but thanks to Aaron Atherton, who I once thought was the most beautiful person to walk the earth. Thanks for your kindness, your generosity, your forgiveness, your trust, and your love. Thank you for being so kind to me when I needed help, thank you for being so sweet to me when I thought very little of myself, thank you for being so charming as to melt my heart. Thank you for teaching me about faith and about life, and for letting me know that I'm not unworthy of love. Thank you for changing my life in a way that no one had ever been to do. Thank you for giving my life meaning and my soul hope. Thank you for telling me that it was not my fault, and that I didn't deserve it. Thank you for listening, for letting me know all that I am and all that I could be. Thank you for filling my heart with light, thank you for all that you are. You are so beautiful....and there's no one I'd rather fall in love with. Then thank you for ripping it all away, thank you for making me cry more than I've ever cried in my life, thank you for giving me more pain than I ever thought I could hold, thank you for giving me the will to trash myself and my life for you, thank you for being scared of me, thank you for your accusations, thank you for your scars, thank you for tearing my heart apart, thank you for showing me how ugly you really are.

Of course, thanks to Robby, Johnny, and Mike for making great music and touching my soul with it everyday. Thanks for being my idols and thanks to their parents and siblings for bringing great people into this world!

Thanks to Name for giving me the strength to wake up every morning.

Thanks to Courtney Love and Hole for making me a stronger person, and for making me feel the way no one could ever make me feel. Thanks for writing the songs that remind me of how to survive and that send freezing shivers rushing through my body from the knowledge of how the songs are frighteningly similar to what I've been through. Thanks for helping me to grow into the woman that I would never have been able to be if it weren't for you.

Thanks to Kurt Cobain for filling my soul with a passion for music, and for singing me to sleep when I was a little girl, and for making the music that changed my life.

If you noticed that you're not thanked here, but you did, in fact, help with the site or the information gathered on the site, email me so I can thank you and give you credit on this page. But I think I got everybody.
