milo doesn't dribble, he drools! he'll lay across my shoulders and play with my pony tail but the whole time drool is literally dripping out of his mouth! my dh thinks it's hysterical as milo had this look on his face like he's stoned or something!

Dribbling and drooling while purring is pretty common. If it's a new occurrence, it's worth a vet visit to make sure nothing is going on with their teeth to be causing a problem, but otherwise some cats are just droolers when they are happy.

Glad you took her in just to be sure since it was new behavior - but three of our six drool like crazy when we pet them. It's quite common. We keep lots of throw blankets, old t-shirts around to grab and set on our laps (or for the kitties that don't do laps, tissues for wiping up wet hands) for our drooling kitties.
