I've been gone a while

[Deleted]

and I will still probably be gone for longer. Sorry to those whom I was running the campaign for, but people stopped posting. Shortly after that I got promoted at work, and then started training in Sanshou and Hapkido. Between training and work I have just enough time to sleep and do laundry. On the bright side I'm in the best shape that I have been in years.

I'm hoping to start working on my comic/novel someday soon. Anyways I'll be busy over the holidays, happy holidays in advance

How's it going! Are you still working at the prison (jail?) or have you moved on to something else?

[Deleted]

Oh yeah, and I'm very good at it. In April I have a physical fitness test to get into SORT. They deal with more physical things, like riots, and things. So, I'm trying to get into running shape. Everything else I can do easily. After my promotion, my experience in the job has quintupled. I've had to deal with uses of force, stabbings, etc.

There's nothing like a good brush against death to make you feel alive. I've seen, and experienced some crazy stuff, but have been blessed enough to come out ahead. It's a good job. There, co workers have a bond if they have worked together for a while. After keeping each other safe for so long, you really get to know each other.

I've even quit drinking for the most part, because I don't know when I'm going to be called in, and I need to be ready to go. Physically and Mentally I'm the best I've been in a while.

F-bomb! This place isn't the same without you. Glad to hear you're doing well. Stay safe out there, brother.

Yeah. Take care of yourself. Brushing against death is fine and all, as long as you don't make that extra step. Besides, we need our professional F-Bomber around here once in a while, even if only to chat a little.

I will stay as safe as I can. Mainly because I have decided too, and have too many people to depending on me. Every day isn't dangerous or crazy. The biggest thing I've learned working there is to talk people down. By far, I've avoid more violence than having to get violent by using words. I've turned twelve angry pissed off inmates around back into a chow hall when they were ready to riot by telling them we had goulash for chow. Saying the right thing at the right time can end violence before it begins.

Well, it's great to hear that everything's going well on your end!

[shenron]

It was good to hear from you man. Glad things are well.

[Deleted]

Enough about me. I want to know how my peeps are doing. I've been under allot, but have managed to balance things out a little. How have you guys been? Believe it or not I miss you guys

[Silentking Alpha]

You have been on and off so much, that I barely notice (Says the guy who is the same way). I am fine, taking college classes, might get a job at McDonalds, and am gonna start a Justice League if my one-shot World's Finest game ends.

[Manah]

VERY long story very short, I'm rather fine these days. XD Got some kickass roleplaying going on on the board, few money troubles, and good friends. So things are rather good. ^_^

[Silentking Alpha]

By the way Manah, did you have the operation yet? I believe I left shortly after you said you were gonna change gender and so I wasn't around to hear anything past that.

[Hoots Rowlet]

It's not that simple King... You have to spend a couple years popping estrogen like candy before they can swap the parts out.

[Manah]

Something along those lines. It's more about a year or so, actually, but yeah. Gotta make a blood test first, and then I'll be able to start the hormonal treatments. After that, count maybe a year and should be able to tell you more.

[Silentking Alpha]

Thanks for the info, Lup. Hope it goes well, Manah. When it actually happens.
