*sigh* Loki you are an absolute doll.
I've started a new project, at work, for a year and it's sort of driving me nuts. Then Moondoggie is going to be comming home for good in October, which is good but still is a little nerve racking since I've only seen him three times in the last two years.
Just keep up with what your doing *shoulders relax even more*

What's a Moondoggie? Aren't you at all familiar with the Gidget movies? In the movies Moondoggie is Gidget's boyfriend. I was talking with someone here about my BF and they asked me how Moondoggie was doing, it sort of stuck. Growing old is mandatory; growing up is NOT.

Posting at the exact same time, who would have though that we could have done it twice in a row! There should be something like that around here, at least you would think so. I need to ask around at the Fire Jam tonight.

Yeah at the last one they were saying that they thought it was the largest gathering of strictly performers ever in North America and this one will hopefully be bigger!!!!!!! I think thats the best part of it is that its performers only.......its amazing the amount of knowledge sharing that goes on

Well three is a lucky number, I think four would have been pushing it.There are so many of these events that I would love to attend. There's only two things stopping me ... time and money.

true three is lucky and four would be a bit much......Hmmmmm I wonder what the record for accidental exact time posts is I hear you with the money situation......I had to sacrifice alot to afford my ticket but its worth it......but the time thing I have in abundance seeing as I'm still out of work on workers compensation

Now that would be interesting to find out. I'm sure that for one of the great programmers, here at HoP, would be able to figure it out without batting an eye.
You are still out on workers comp? Then you do have time on the hands. Sometimes I wish I did have that extra time, but then life isn't always how we want it.

That would be impressive
