Hello fellow campers. yes that means you in the beenie
Ive been officially inducted into nasa's monkey training program, so i wont be around for awhile! well the monkey bit was a lie, monkeys are getting expensive so we're trying zebra's instead..lol
Oh in all seriousness now, its time to say good bye for awhile, for real ? - yes but it feels so surreal!
"captains log, star date 1.205 rounded to the nearest decimal point, Told Bones today to turn off that damn blinker,.......... we're been turning left since right was found!!! ...end log"
I better make this quick - cause its taxing being normal for long spans of time!
Just to give you guys a brief rundown on my life ATM, cause its more important that your lives of course..lol , this normal stuff is harder than it looks...anyways, ive recently separated from the family & am in the process of moving into a brand new house. So new - theres no need to sniff the walls for paint fumes if you catch my drift.
So i now have a blank canvas to start a fresh - & typical problematic champaign tastes so after the $5000 fridges, $2000 washing machines ect ect a computer is like 25th on the list. So the internet the world over will now go quiet for awhile & you'll notice the line speeds pick up alittle cause im not downloading all that porn anymore Good thing is im aiming for a new Apple this time round, die you PC clones - just die! *takes his foot off the laptop* ahem............. where was i ? yep.... so im saying good bye for while. I'll miss you guys. Even talking crap builds bonds, & dont let anyone tell you other wise!
Way to go with the switch to Mac!!! Welcome to the family dude!
Hope your new life works better for you. Take care of yourself! I look forward to having you back. Kind of crazy to think that I've known you for almost two years now!
Awwwww! I just started here and was enjoying all your crazy posts! Take care of yourself and I wish you success with your new beginnings. Leave plenty of room in the new place for tanks!
Darn it... looks like I'm going to have to shelf my new "Slang From Down Undah" dictionary for a while Be well my friend... get in order and get back soonest.
I hate it when you get serious. The separating stuff sucks but, when you close a door or a chapter in life, you open another. With the new chapter you can write a new life full of whatever you'd like and make it better. Conquering tough times makes one stronger. Thirty years ago I walked away from my family. Hardest decision I ever made in my life but, my kids survived and a few years later each told me it was the best thing I could have done. Nine years of single life, having to "make it" on my own, delving deep into self help taught me who I really was and what I really wanted in life. Then, my true soul mate came into my life. Now, twenty plus years later, Sue and I are still giddy about our life together. Good things can happen but it will depend on the path you take V. Make good decisions, my friend.
I know I speak for many here at TR, we will miss your wit, wisdom and smart @ss know-it-all attitude but, there will be no tears shed at this parting because it's not death that keeps us apart only time and money. Time will pass, money will come and that Mac will bring you back to us, soon we hope.
I personally love you V! Get your life back together and get back here.
Remember our motto..."One for all and all for one".

V, I came back just in time to see you off. I will miss you bruv. Take care and stay safe. I wish you the best and hope for your safe return to us. TR will not be the same without your humor.
Good move on getting a Mac...PC is the reason I have been gone for so long! I think I am not too far behind you on getting a Mac. *smacks laptop for being a PC*

Bummer V. I haven't been in your place but I can only imagine how though this must be. Hang in there and hurry back to us. As Lori says "Reefers school together" and to me that means that we are family here and we will miss you while you are gone.
Even though thousands of miles and endless ocean separates us now as it always has, you are still very near and dear to me. Been there, done that back in 1993 and just walked off with my 3 kids, the clothes on our backs and a beat up car. Hardest thing I ever had to do and took years for me to get my life back, but the point is this..... best decision that I ever made and I learned I was stronger than I ever imagined, sheer determination driving me to make it. And what does not kill you will make you stronger. I rewrote the pages of a book that was written for me and changed those words of sorrow into strength, happiness and the captain of my ship to sail where I so choose and to enjoy adventures yet to be discovered. Live one day at a time V, for tomorrow has it's own set of worries. You are a survivor and your intelligence, quick witt and humor will be your best defenses against meloncholy. Love ya, mean it. Now get your sh*t in one sock and get your wonderful arse back here as quickly as possible. I'm gonna miss the heck out of you. Take care of yourself.
after reading more of your posts I've come to enjoy your daily humor you have brightened many days. I hope things go well for you and look forward to your return.
V, sorry to see you bug out of here for a while. Take care and make it back soon! Thank you for all your help along the way, my critters thank you for all of your great advice. You consistent presence here will be sorely missed.
Wow, thanks Guys, i actually didn't expect you guys to give a s%$t actually.
aarrrr V's gone- we all have peace & quite now...lol
Alls good people, life goes on & you roll with the punches- as sad as it is from a family perspective, from a singles perspective sheesh, im definatly not complaining. Never had a little black book, but due to popular demand im thinking of starting one!
