*shrugs* Thanks, Esoo.
Honestly, it's been enriching AND disheartening. I've seen the best and the worst humanity has to offer.
It's great to help people truly in need; it infuriates me like little else to see worthless douchebags who have NO need whatsoever (other than needing to get off their dead asses and get an honest job) come strutting in to our resource centers with their hands out, demanding we give them help they DON'T need, taking it away from people who truly DO need it.
All in all, though, it was a great experience, one I'll definitely do again as I'm able. |

Good to hear from ya, Skyler. Jamfke had given me a heads up about your service in Oklahoma being extended. But I'm gonna be honest here, I just PMed him yesterday about having heard from you recently. Wasn't sure if the time he said you were going to be in Oklahoma had yet come to a close or if there was a little more time left. Was wondering if it had come to a close if something had happened to you.
Honestly folks I do think of each of you from time to time, though I rarely, if ever, say anything. Not really my way. But if I know someone's in an area where severe storms may be going through I may be a little more likely to say something. Of course Ankhanu has deserved a little more of that from me in the past as for whatever reason I've placed him closer to Essoomian when he's closer to vong and myself. _________________ FLUFFY for President!!!!

Yeah, he actually texted me today, and we talked for a little bit. I've been back since Saturday, but have needed several days to decompress before getting back into the swing of things. |

Yeah, I'm in a pretty safe part of the planet; not much dangerous happens here
Even our severe weather is pretty mild in the scope of things. _________________ Hotaru no Hishou; a messageboard about games, friends and nothing at all.

Kinda had a couple years ago and Irene in mind. Was thinking that could have gotten you if it had not weakened by the time it reached my area. Sem to recall making comments about hoping vong would have been ok and then either discovering you were in Nova Scotia and apologizing for not thinking of the possibility of you being in the potential path or you pointing out where you were and my apologizing for not considering you. Course the eventual path and the strength at the time the storm reached Canada put it west of you as more like a bad thunderstorm. _________________ FLUFFY for President!!!!

You too!
Sorry about response delay in the main thread, kinda wanting to talk with Vong before I post, and we don't seem to be on IRC at the same time these days _________________ Hotaru no Hishou; a messageboard about games, friends and nothing at all.

Well folks, got some news I meant to post earlier in the week and didn't get up. Wednesday I'll be heading out to California with my mom for about a month to watch my baby sister's pups while she's on some kind of deployment. Will be taking my laptop with me so hopefully I'll still be able to log on and things don't slow down too much. _________________ FLUFFY for President!!!!

Have fun House/dog sitting.
I'm going to be away for most of October doing the tourist thing in the USA so my posting might take a hit during that period. _________________ Don't waste money on expensive binoculars.

Well am in California, been here for a few days. My sister has wi-fi so I'm on on my laptop. Hope to move things forward. Spent today up among the sequoias, literally being lucky not to get mauled by a bear. We saw a mama and her cubs and had them cross the path in front of us 25 to 50 yards away (for those of you on the meteric system that's about 22.9 to 45.7 meters) and we somehow managed to keep cool and not run. Honestly, my instinct was to run even though I remember hearing and reading quite a bit that said that is a very bad idea. Somehow that thankfully overrode my base instinct of get away fast.
Sis leaves this week for her duty. Don't ask, I buy into the old WWII slogan of loose lips sinks ships and try not to tell folks where she's going. But at times I very much wish the news would do so. Don't like seeing when they tell where any of our ships are heading and once or twice I've seen a ship she was assigned to listed while she was on that ship. _________________ FLUFFY for President!!!!
