Going Home

Well, I finally decided that I am going to move back to Illinois, so I will probably be offline for a few days or even weeks until I get settled. I will be living at my Mom's house until I get back on my feet financially. I'll try to pop on to check email and such... but I'll mostly be incognito for a while. She does not use computers, so I don't know if I can get internet access there. If I do, it will be dial-up only... so no more radio broadcasts until I get back on broadband... who knows when that will be. I am sorry if this seems like I am running from my problems, as a few people have said, but I think it is the best thing I can do for myself at this time. I feel the need strongly to get back to my familiar surroundings. Maybe it is a mistake... only I can answer that in time. To those that are concerned, I do intend to fulfill the agreements I had made with you as stated so there should be no worries there. When all is said and done, I will be a better person, hopefully. So, I'll see you all later, and yes, I will miss each and every one of you. *HUGS*

A "strategic advance to the rear" is better than surrender. Regroup, and attack the problems better equipped.

Good luck.

I'm sorry things didn't work out for you here. Hope things are at least amicable with you and Yotie. I'm sorry I wasn't able to be a better friend; wish we could have gotten to know each other better while you were here. Hugs and good luck to you!

We have talked this out, and she says she want's what is best for me. I know that doesn't say much, but we will still be friends... and maybe someday, if things change, we will try again. I'm glad for the times I did get to see you and Sean too. I know that you guys still have my MFM tape... if you will get it to Deb, she can send it to me sometime, or just give it to me at the next con or whatever. No big deal. I'm not leaving furry, so I will be around.

*grins* My mom thinks the internet is the greatest evil ever created... though where she works at a grain elevator uses the internet for the grain market updates constantly. Go figure. I bet she doesn't even know what email is. I'll try to inform her though.

The key thing though is that you two are still on good terms and there's hope for the future.
You may have moved back over a bridge, but at least you haven't burnt said bridge *HUGS* Don't forget to e-mail me and [livejournal.com profile] wkd_wolf sometime with a phone number and time (just don't forget to mention which time zone you're in) :)

I'll do what I can to make sure I'm not burning any more bridges.. done too much of that in the past. Sure, once I get settled, I'll let you know when and where... and it is the Central Time Zone, 6 hours behind your time. *hugs*

Bummer on the finaically bad stuff. Understandable about the net situation. What happened that made you think about moving back ?

Perhaps I can meet the person behind the handle sometime eh ? ;) Btw...HEY!!! I'm on dialup here,finally upgraded to 56k. ::pouts about your knocking about dialup.::

::hugs back.::

Hey, I'd love to meet you face to face sometime. I'll be around at times in the Chicago area... lots of friends there on the LAFF list. I can travel a bit too, as I seem to recall you are actually in Wisconsin.

Nothing against dialup... it's just too hard to do a web broadcast over a dialup with any sound quality. I survived for years with a 56K connection, and a 33K before that. I can do it again.

::nods.:: That would be fun,hardly get to see people from the Madisonfurry for these days,only about 4 people... :\ ::has bad feeling that the others are advoiding me like a plague.::

Yup..that's right Madison. When are you moving there ? I'll have Pouncer respond to your thread there and tell you where we're at,if you want to visit sometime. We're cool with it.

Have a safe trip, and I'll look for ya online when you manager to get on.

tell you're mom that internet is no more harmful than a telephone or a letter - it's just a faster form of communication that can be used for good or evil.

*HUGS* be safe, take care, and you made the right choice :)

Things can go nuts on you sometimes, and there's not much you can do but fall back and try to get your second wind. Best of luck to you and to Yotewah as well.

(Just for the record, I ain't mad at you. Wanted to make sure you knew that before you went into possible internet-xile, 'cause the last thing I said about it might have raised some doubts.)

Take care.

Thank you for the reply. I must admit, I was a bit worried that you were mad at me. I'm glad you aren't I hope all that other unpleasantness can be quickly gotten over by all involved.

It was good having you here for the time you were here, and was good getting to know you a bit better... hopefully I'll see ya around some anyway.

Take care, and keep in touch.

That is the important thing... you feel this is the right thing for you, then it is. :) Being nervous about moving is natural. We all have done and I am praying that [livejournal.com profile] masassi and I wont have to do the same thing. I will keep you in my prayers as well.

Good luck in your move, and dont think of what you''re doing as "running away from your problems". You're trying to get a handle on your life and there's never anything wrong with that.
