Geez, you must be some sick-o bastards! Comin' here expecting to find out whatever "grisly details" someone might throw at you! Like buzzards on a carcass, I tell you. Truth be told, there's nothing really TO tell. Basically, I just got a new set of "marching orders" and I'll be heading out to points unknown. (They actually call it a "request" for my "voluntary" change of station, but if I know what's good for me.... ) I don't know where I'll go from here (that's the "points unknown" part), but wherever it is, I won't be coming back here. The reality is that life is full of change and consequences. You make decisions, poorly or wisely, and you have to accept the responsibility for those actions. I've made a committment; I'm simply following through by leaving.

I just wanted to take this opportunity to thank you all for allowing me to be a part of your little community for the short time I was here. You're a fun bunch of people. Sure you argue, fight, piss each other off sometimes...but, hey, what family doesn't? And that's what you folks are, a family. Even that red-headed step child who plagiarizes like shit and can't seem to type a word of English. Him, too. I'm going to miss interacting with you guys.

Oh yes, I DID say something about a gift for you Gypsy fans, didn't I? Well, I felt it necessary to take most of Michelle's pictures with me. But I'll leave you a reminder photo...and a link to her web page! All her pictures are available there, along with her journal that she updates fairly frequently. I'll bet some of you didn't think she was real or that her name was really "Michelle." http://gypsyminette.tripod.com/photoalbum/index.html DISCLAIMER: Not for the faint of heart! She's not exactly the gal you'd want to take home to mom. Now you'll know why we're only acquaintences!

Like I said, life is full of change and consequences. You never know what it'll bring you. But whatever it dishes up, you have to make the best of it. I know I will. I'm actually excited and looking forward to moving on. I guess I had said everything I needed to say. Take care, everyone! Have a nice life.

Peace!
