It's good to see you back Negative1. I'm probably one of the only ones on the board here that actually agreed with you on a lot of your views of the PT & OT. I too understand how real life can get in the way. Boy do I know. As long as you stay in touch every once and awhile and make yourself available to trusted folks like Adywan when the community has questions, I think that will qualm a lot of fears about this project dying. I know there are a lot of people who are interested in seeing this all come to fruition, but I'm sure they are a bit sceptical that it ever will. People don't like to get their hopes up and I don't blame them.

 

 thanks, i want to talk about something else briefly (it has some relevance, i think)

believe it or not, i'm not a very social person.

every single person i know is married, has kids, or is involved/girlfriend, etc.

i just turned 42 this year in april, and it hit me hard..

really hard.

===========================================================

how do you tell people about what's going on, when nothings happening?

 

seriously, even though i kept in contact with someone (who of course told

me to keep everything private)...  i kept waiting and waiting and never gave

up, even though i told them i had the money, and was prepared for whatever

they wanted to do..

 

nothing happened, and there was nothing i could do about it.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

fine, so i'm the bad guy now, and even though i stated from the VERY beginning

that this would take a long time. people still want something to happen on their

schedule, and not with real life, and its delays and problems..

==============================================

 

anways, back to my lack of communication skills..

 

i've ALWAYS been a loner.. that's just how i am.

i don't even talk to my parents much, since i really can't stand hearing

their complaints about me all the time..

i have one brother who i keep in touch with, but he doesn't really talk to me either..

 

so you can see why, i feel like i don't need to keep in touch,

because the last thing i need is a bunch of 'parent's that keep asking

me what's going on, and what's happening.. i get that in real life, and

i can't STAND it..

 

ok, i'll get of my soapbox now..

----------------------------------------

 

back to the fun stuff..

 

its STILL going to be quiet (DUH), because if stuff DOES happen,

well, i can't go around getting people too excited because we

don't want to attract attention..

 

great catch-22 situation to be in..

 

i may not have handled this too well,

but if you were in my shoes, what would you do?

 

be seeing you
