Just got a call from my airman son. Looks like the AF has blessed him with a 4 day pass over the 4th. Gonna be good to see him again. It's been some time.


Not sure why, but call me JJ.
I used to hate math but then I realised decimals have a point.

That has to be the best news a parent could ever hear! That's wicked sweet.

Now if only those dang aliens will hold off the attack this year so he doesn't get recalled like Will Smith did.

Oh, and sorry about the FB drama, TifFafa... I didn't know you caused drama on the thread ...

Dearest Threadies,

This has been rattling around in my head for a number of days now and I just need to get it out.

As you may have noticed I’ve been very absent of late. Part of this is due to how busy I have been with my seniors and the biggest part is an issue that popped up on Facebook.

I discovered that one of the folks in here had unfriended me and, when I noticed this, I sent the person a message and was told that I was let go due to my supposed penchant for causing drama in the thread.

While I totally respect the person’s opinion and right to unfriend me, I will honestly say I was rather hurt by it.

So, I took a break. It was ok I guess. I needed more time....I got more time....but I missed you guys. I missed chatting with you and I missed having TPBM be a part of my life.

The other day I discovered that in addition to the original person, I was also dropped by two others on Facebook. Very ouch.

So, I can take a hint. I’m weary of fighting to be a part of this thread when I am so clearly not wanted by several. I’m weary of being accused of causing drama. I’m weary of having to guard myself and suppress my inner freak because I might offend someone. I’m so over being thought of as unethical and icky. I’m just tired of putting so much in and not getting much out.

So, this is my official goodbye. I’ve been very honored to get to know some of you and truly miss having you as part of my daily routine.

And, well, the next thread can be titled the Fafa free (FINALLY!!! WOOHOO!!) TPBM chat thread. :lol:

I encourage those of you who care to keep in touch with me on facebook as lord knows I’m a junkie there.

And, if you are sick of me, feel free to unfriend me and/or put me on ignore in case you see me out in the POTN world....can’t hurt anymore than I already do. :lol: And to those who unfriended me already, please don’t PM me or contact me in any way. I don’t want you to feel like you should apologize or anything and honestly, I don’t want to hear from you.

Thank you so much for being a part of my life for so long. You will be missed. I wish you all the best.....sending healing vibes to Zane and Deb and much health and happiness to them and the rest of you as well!

hugs kisses and love to those who want it (and wool get your hand off my ass),

Neil, it wasn't you.

I'm really going to miss this place but I can't keep up anymore and I am just tired of having to be careful what I post for the risk of offending someone.

It's not a decision I reached lightly and it's not without its pain but I can't, for my own mental health, keep having to guard who I am because of the risk of offending someone. There are many in here with super thick skin but there are those without and I'm tired of the backlash.....there have been so many little incidents over the last year and I'm just tired of waiting for the next one to pop up.

I just can't anymore even though it kills me to lose out on so many of you. I wasn't trying to get attention or anything with my post (because I know there are some that will/are thinking that's why I did it). I just wanted to say my goodbye and wish people well.

Blah blah, facebook, blah - you cannot keep everyone happy or appease everyone in life. Unfortunately, that is just life for you. Words can hurt and all that fun stuff, but you cannot let that run your life for you. If you enjoy the warmth, joys and laughter in this thread, then you really belong in this thread. Some people can be offended one day, and laugh the next (remember we all have some mental issues - that is why we frequent this thread on a daily basis!). As for keeping guard over what you say and type, hogwash to that. Just say things as you mean it (you know how you mean those to be), and don't be so politically correct - otherwise we'll all turn out to be really boring people, and you wouldn't want that, would you?

So sit back, rest your feet up on one of your seniors, drink a sangria and stick around :D

p.s. If it was me that unfriended you in facebook, then quit stalking me in my dreams because I don't have a facebook page!
