LOL stalker” 2:36:42 AM 5/10/04 “yahoo?? and yes i do well at stalking..although driving to philly every weekend may put a strain on my finances ...you know i gotta do what needs to be done...” 2:37:57 AM 5/10/04 “I have AIM,.. ScorchFire I have YM too but I don't ever use it.” 2:39:56 AM 5/10/04 “Alright, I'm gettin to bed now, a sudden wave of exhaustion just came over me... talk to you tomorrow night if you're around. Good luck job hunting!” 2:40:38 AM 5/10/04 “well that sucks..i dont use aim....i got it but i never use it...” 2:41:05 AM 5/10/04 “yeah yeah yeah whatever...” 2:43:33 AM 5/10/04 “good morning everyone, gonna be another beautiful day down here. Can't wait to head out for Virginny this weekend. Scorch, I still say blow off that graduation thing and come to trail days, you've already got the pictures ya know.” 6:25:47 AM 5/10/04 “Cold and rainy outside here.” 7:07:43 AM 5/10/04 “Hot and sunny here” 7:18:51 AM 5/10/04 “Blow off graduation? No way, man, been waiting for this sh't for five years now.” 9:59:23 AM 5/10/04 “so I get to leave work early today so I can take my daughter for a manicure appt. Can yall believe that? I made a deal with her though that if she'd quit chewing her fingernails I'd take her. Amazingly she has stopped, mostly at least. (btw, she'll be 10 next month) Who thinks I should get one too? Who thinks it depends on how hot and single the nail tech is?” 2:47:22 PM 5/10/04 “does it matter if she is single if she is willing?” 2:48:58 PM 5/10/04 “Get a pedicure!” 2:49:02 PM 5/10/04 “If she's hot go for it.” 2:49:50 PM 5/10/04 “well hyway, technically no, so long as the chance of getting clubbed with a baseball bat are fairly slim. your the second person to suggest that Scorch, maybe on the second trip with Bebo.” 2:50:17 PM 5/10/04 “so... anything goin on, did I miss anything this weekend?” 5:07:29 PM 5/10/04 “not much, it was pretty slow around here this weekend. Come to Trail Days with us simer, fly into Orlando, FL thursday night or Friday morning and you can ride up with me.” 5:28:27 PM 5/10/04 “Or he can fly to Huntsville & I'll pick him up...LOL....” 5:33:17 PM 5/10/04 “I am going to ask for Friday off tomorrow...didn't quite have the nerve today........I may just head to VA on Thursday......wooohooo....” 5:34:51 PM 5/10/04 “go for it, all they can do is say, "aaaaaahhhhh NO!" and maybe laugh a little” 5:44:31 PM 5/10/04 “I never had a pedicure, Roam. Always wanted one. Maybe before I head off to Japan.” 6:50:25 PM 5/10/04 “Sure, if you buy my plane ticket i'll fly right down :D My TR and pics are up, check 'em out.” 7:05:21 PM 5/10/04 “wow... this is heavy. I'm not sure why i'm posting this here, but i know this board usually provides some comfort. This girl I've been talking to, nothing too serious - but just a strong friendship, and she's a backpacker, we have discussed the possiblity of her joining me on my "journey." I've been away for the weekend backpacking and i come back to the news that she was in a car accident... paralyzed from the waist down. I'm kind of at a loss for words.” 7:47:34 PM 5/10/04 “oh thats terrible! That happened, sort of, to me when I was in college. A girl I had gone out with a couple of times was hit by a drunk and put into a coma. She died a little while after that. It just kinda takes the wind out of you.” 7:49:26 PM 5/10/04 “Things like those last two events mentioned confirm my philosophy on life. Its sooo unpredictable. Take trips, travel, see people and places. Don't wait till tomorrow or next year, do it now.” 7:57:13 PM 5/10/04 “So Simer, how are you doing? Are you able to visit her or anything?” 7:59:37 PM 5/10/04 “No... how am I doing, if I don't think about it too much I'm doing alright. I just think of all the places that I've told her that i'd take her or go to with her - mostly backpacking destinations, it's tough.” 8:04:40 PM 5/10/04 “but maybe, you'll still get to do a lot of stuff. it'll be different for sure, but there's still lots of possibilities for her to enjoy being outdoors and enjoying the things she would have enjoyed before the accident.” 8:06:16 PM 5/10/04 OMG! “Come back from the weekend to find your friend is paralyzed from the waist down! That's terrible! Man, I feel sorry for you and her. If you need someone to talk to lemme know.” 8:07:11 PM 5/10/04 “Thanks guys - i'll remember that. Sorry to ruin the thread with this heavy stuff, how about a change of subject (get my mind off of it) And now back to our regularly scheduled programming - So, who's coming with me on another pow-wow trail trip this fall? I loved that trail and would gladly get out there again.” 8:30:34 PM 5/10/04 “I am sorry for your friend simer. It must really be a blow to her. I hope you will be there to encourage her in the days to come.” 8:30:52 PM 5/10/04 Hey Simer “My trip schedule is filling up really fast but I might could get up there in August? After looking at your pics I would love to see that part of the world first hand. I don't think i have the right gear for a real winter hike, but i'm good down to about 15 degrees or so.” 8:40:44 PM 5/10/04 “awww.....hugs to Simer!!!!” 8:48:59 PM 5/10/04 “Sept-Oct wouldn't be a real winter hike, and that would be the time that I'd be able to do a trip.” 8:50:02 PM 5/10/04 “i've got a trip planned for Sept, but maybe Oct, after Oct 15, i could probably swing it.” 8:54:49 PM 5/10/04 “probably be pushing good colors... what am i saying the colors on this trail will always be gree, except for the birch. I usually don't plan this far in advance... but how about a Boundary Waters trip on october 15? or would you prefer the superior hiking trail? The only thing is that i don't know my class schedule, and i have a few classes that take place on saturday. The good thing though is that i have mondays off, so depending on other people's schedules i could plan a fri-mon trip.” 9:05:14 PM 5/10/04 “Simer, I know you said you wanted to change the subject, but I'm really sorry to hear about your friend. I can't imagine what she is going through. It's my worst fear... you, her, and her family are in my prayers.” 9:16:24 PM 5/10/04 “thank you” 9:20:08 PM 5/10/04 “Oct 15 is a big deadline in my office, I'd be foolish to try to plan anything for that day. The next weekend would be much better.” 9:20:42 PM 5/10/04 “lol” 9:21:35 PM 5/10/04 “I think i'll plan a SHT trip on Sept 24th, and try to catch the fall colors and a BWCA trip on Oct 22, that sounds about good. depending on class schedule.” 9:25:54 PM 5/10/04 “Come down to PA!” 9:26:41 PM 5/10/04 “I'd love to, but these trips where i have to travel might have to wait 'til next year - i feel kind of selfish expecting people to come here for trips, but i don't go anywhere else... it's not my fault. and check that last statement, i'll shoot for october 2 to catch the fall colors.” 9:34:26 PM 5/10/04 “I second Scorch. PA's a bit closer to home. Actually, out in the Midwest, Isle Royale is definitely on my to-do list. Now that I've picked up an extra week of vacation, the Mooseapalooza trip is looking really appealing (unless of course, it's filled up already...)” 9:37:38 PM 5/10/04 “I might make one of those two dates simer, I'd love to see that area. Surely I can pull off one of those weekends.” 9:46:54 PM 5/10/04 Checking in “How is everyone tonight?” 9:51:30 PM 5/10/04 “doing fine. We parents wiped the field with our children for their last soccer practice” 9:54:40 PM 5/10/04 Jump to Page << prev
