As I often debate with my Dr, is it the pain or the anticipation of pain that causes me fear? You have prover her point that it is the anticipation of suffering that is worse than the pain itself.
I was wondering where you had got to only the other day! Although mainly because I had a technical issue and thought, “I bet Jaysen would be able to answer that… Hang on a minute, WHERE is Jaysen?”
We thought you had seen the onset of a Mac/Windows battle and had (wisely) stood aside until dust settled, blood stopped flowing, and keyboard shortcuts were resolved.
I’ll be honest. I don’t like windows. I also don’t like strawberries so anyone who wants to argue can go …
So yes. I ducked out partly because I am unable to be an adult. Don’t believe me? Ask Fluff.
Secondly I had to take care of some family business. My oldest is a few months from no longer being “mine” (not that she will be “his” or “theirs” or whatever) but I needed to make sure I had some priorities straight.
But now I am going back to school to get my edumacation so I figured I needed to get back in the scrivener grove. That and I … man this makes me feel dirty … missed vic-k. The rest of you too, but there is something about vic-k. Kind of like looking at a car wretch in passing.
We’re entering the oximoronicle quagmire where we have to reconcile the concept of, ‘The mature student’,with the the fact that it is now Jaysen’s supposed legitimate status. Far easier to comprehend the Unifying Theory of Everything
As for missing vic-k!! We’re all aware that there is no accounting for proliferate red-neck hill billy deviancy.

Many people wish they could make that claim. My wife included. Consider that you are no longer amount those that have the privilege of saying “who?” when asked “have you seen that headless idiot who spouts drivel about things which are yes left unrivaled?”
Howdy to you too pardner. 'Round these parts the weapon of choice is a .44cal vocab delivered via a parker repeater using indigo black. The really special folks sacrifice moles to get a skin covered case for their wadding, but I prefer the standard brass casing with a double load.
If that made sense to you you should immediately go back to the bottle and drink until it doesn’t.

Speaking from a position founded/built upon the bedrock of bitter experience, I can vouchsafe this!! Given your mutual 'Deliverance-esque-ish’, backwoods, hill billy inbreeding/upbringing, or whatever, you two will get on like a house on fire. Ill rephrase that…like two houses on fire.
I’ve just realised that Jaysen’s self-imposed exile came immediately after a ‘emotional’ exchange with me and a response to my post where I declared myself in a self-imposed exile.
Now I feel really guilty. Especially since my own exile lasted for only 18 days. And no-one noticed.
