what’s up, you say?
May 3rd, 2002Well, my life just went further down the shitter, Wednesday night.
Same individual who borrowed my car without asking was allegedly taking it to fill up the tank with gasoline (with my permission), and was arrested for driving on a suspended license, my car impounded as a side effect. Yay. That puts a huge damper on my financial situation (which was bleak already).
So.. I took someone up on an offer of assistance, and may very well be moving to Arkansas. It’s the least I can do to repay this person, to make it quick, by being nearby.
Her name is Kat. I met her back in December at WinterFest in Houston. She’s quite attractive, and a roleplayer - I thought “what’s wrong here?” And hence I became interested. We exchanged email addresses, myself offering to play the sire for her next character, as her current one was in the process of being destroyed. (doh!)
I started talking to her on the phone/online more extensively (read: not just email) on Tuesday night. Mainly, it was to discuss the possibility of me driving (heh) out there this weekend for a weekend of gaming. Well, we all know what happened with that (if you don’t, read above). So, I talked to her Wednesday night, all bummed out, and she makes a couple offers of financial assistance, that I turn down.. Then last night, I let her talk me into it. Sure, I know it sounds like I’m using her, but I’m not.. far from it. I’ve also realized that for once I’m just going to have to swallow my pride and take on assistance of this kind. I’ve borrowed money before in tight situations (and Scott, if you read this, I *will* get you that money), but this is also other assistance.. Finding a place to live, helping me get my car back, et cetera, et cetera, et cetera.. veni vidi vici..
So.. I decided to be honest with her about my interest.. and found out it wasn’t one way. Wow. I did NOT expect that. There’s a minor issue with age, one that I am having only a slight difficulty overlooking.. (Danielle was barely old enough to drink, and I think that had something to do with why our relationship didn’t work out - too much of an age difference) She has a very giving personality, one that I usually have (when I’m not poor). She enjoys roleplaying, not necessarily rule-playing (though, she’s been around Logan alot lately, there might be a little twink growing in her head, will have to take care of that).. (and I’m kidding, Logan).. And.. she needs assistance herself. I can’t go into the details of that, as it’s her personal information. Let’s just say it’s something I’ve got experience dealing with, and will help her out as much as I can - both financially and emotionally.
Some folks I want to say “Hi!” to, as I may not have complete access to a computer for a while…
.. how do you do it, man? There’s a darned good reason why you held the job you held.. it’s because you’re good with people. Some folks just don’t deserve that, yet you still gave them the goods.
Logan - I’ll call Charles tomorrow and see how you’re doing - I’m not sure if your cell phone’s working out there.
- if you even read this, I’ll call you tomorrow to check up on Logan
- you’re probably wondering what all this game talk is, well.. hit www.white-wolf.com/camarilla that should explain a bit of it.
- you already know what all this game talk is. So don’t ask 
Shea - You’ve been like a mother to a lot of us, at the very least a role model - someone to look up to. I still look up to you, no matter what happens. (And yes, you still intimidate me)
- Keep on freakin out the locals - until you move, then freak out the locals down there..
- You’ve been a really good friend, and I’ll make sure I at least get to email you if I don’t chat with you. If I do end up moving, you’ll be one of the first ones I miss.
Potter - …. Well shit, man.. thanks for the birthday present.. it has made things a lot easier to deal with.
Mother of Fianna - snick snick! Archbishop won’t go away, I hope. I’m going to be taking over the account from the original owner, and keep on playing.
Kerry - I don’t remember your LJ name, sorry.. but.. Tell Ricky I said I’ll see him between now and then, you too. I’ll hit a BCS game as soon as I can.. Tell Jackson I wish I could be there next weekend :/
And many many more.. if I didn’t mention you, it’s not because I forgot you, it’s because I have a bus to catch… see you all online, when I can..
