IdolEyes, please say something to me.

Very happy to see you here again. Sounds like you have had a few adventures and a lot of miles since we got an update. You mentioned Washington, I assume the western side. Even so, you would have been within 300 miles from me.

Actually happy you found that comment. I thought about replying to you on FB as soon as I saw you had replied. Just felt like it would come across as a bit disingenuous saying, "Sorry, didn't see your response" for all those years.

A brief return while waiting for a visa turned into a long return, and then even longer when 'rona came 'round, so there was a 2018-2022 block when I wasn't there. In that time, I abandoned teaching/writing/chemistry and became a mover, then I ran the Washington branches of the moving company I worked for and ended up making way too much money. I blew it all on bookers and hoes, and I don't know what all the fuss was about... I guess we only get the bias from event organizers and gardeners.

I can't believe it's been that long. Seems like only yesterday . Anyway in your absence there have been a lot of changes. We lost one Black but gained a Jew so in terms of minorities you don't want to associate with it was kind of a wash.

I know Meg has really missed you. To compensate he bought an inflatable doll and made it look like you and does "things" to it.

I predate all of you.

I don't know if the fact depresses or elevates me...

Well, everyone copes with loss in different ways... you bought a Macky voodoo doll and kept stabbing it on the basis it worked with Frank Sinatra.

Macky's back in town. I'm assuming "moving company" was an euphemism.

Your dental hygienist isn't even on this forum and she sill views you as a predator. Allegedly.

Well, I was all over the PNW because when I was doing moves, I would do long distance quite regularly, but most frequently just to neighboring states (Idaho and Oregon).

I still haven't gone onto FB to check, so I'm not sure which comment you meant.

Time lapses quickly for me too. I would think only months have gone by since X happened when it really was 1-3 years. Works for me because people keep telling me cigarettes will kill me and I'm still waiting.

Maybe I'll check in periodically, but I'm quickly remembering why I bailed (other than the data loss that erased my precious writings). This site still functions like shit on mobile and the browser is nothing special. It's making me feel like I need to go update the content on my original Angelfire website.

Your recap means... no new sagas? It's really settling into becoming a time capsule. FST needs a reboot. Reboots are all the rage these days.
