yay, i log on and there's a new post! that chicago con would be rad, but no way i can go either. bikes and writing are fun. i'm hanging in there. it's been a loooong week. currently trying to figure out where my dad is since i don't know where he went after being locked up a few hours two nights ago, with his car towed. but between me having to pack/move in a matter of hours, and him being super unstable, i'm amazingly still doing fine. mental illness and addiction are assholes, though!!! to be honest, i'm glad fts hasn't started back up in this last week or two, but i'm always glad to see people still hanging around on here

I hope the move goes smoothly and that you dad has turned up (or turns up soon if he hasn't already).

Exic, I'm sorry I hear about your dad. It's never fun watching someone you care about be destructive. Project update - I didn't get it done before the lake (due to a nameplate not arriving), but now the fiberglass is totally on. Now just more epoxy to fill then varnish varnish varnish. She'll be able to slap the deck pads on and use it before I even add the handle, access hatch, retention strap and bungees. I'm not sure if she'll be happier to have the entryway back or the board...

thanks, guys! i do appreciate it. he showed up, but is still being difficult (alcohol and everything else) so his sister and i and whoever else he's calling are just limiting our exposure. i hope he'll really go to the doctor like he told me the other day that he would, but it's mostly out of my control! and that's just something i've been learning to accept. (but it sure takes a long time to learn, it seems) :)
your project is looking great, jed! i'm sure your wife will be thrilled to have the entryway back, but more thrilled about having something so beautifully and lovingly crafted by you. by the way, your house is gorgeous. but, you knew that. what is way more important than that, though? time and intention and hand-made things that are create to be enjoyed by your family. (and i can't help but notice the B E D whiteboard you'd previously mentioned. that's the important stuff. not the entryway. and i'm sure your wife would agree!)

I try and check in every day. This past weekend I've just been watching LS' instagram and twitter and seeing all this stuff about Superfight and I'm so happy for him.

When do we get to do something? We should have a book club or something so we can do something. Any ideas?

for realz. i'm possibly down for a book club. and i was only half-joking about correspondence chess, but it would be funny to come up with a more-than-two-person correspondence something. monopoly? haha. some crappy/fun/simple/little web-based game? three truths and a lie? 21 questions? i-spy? seeing who can come up with the most bad ideas? (i win!)

Obviously we need to figure out how to play Superfight in a forum.
I've got a few game ideas from when I've ran roleplay forums if you want me to whip up a thread for one?

I just read that people played correspondence chess through homing pigeons. We should get an official FTS Carrier pigeon to send letters and play chess. If we solved a puzzle we could just mail it in to LS Via pigeon. Just please, Whatever you do, DO NO SEND HIM TO THE PONCE DE LEON HOTEL! He will get lost.

I just had an idea of something we could do. It might be hard, but we could have a movie night where we all sync up a movie and watch it in chat.

endercowz if it's a private stream, i could set up something through livestream. i haven't had problems with it before, and i absolutely hate livestream so if i get banned for it or something then so be it, lol.
