Well, there's been a lot of things going on, and I'm being forced to leave this abode. I've been living with my grandmother, and since my spring semester was up she's been on my case to get out. So tomorrow will be my last day having internet until who knows when. I'll be moving in with my grandfather, and I'll just say, time travel is possible. He's got no modern conveniences (heat/ac hot water), and I don't know if I'll be able to survive.

I'd just like to say it's been real, it's been fun, and it's been real fun. I appreciate all the help you have given me, and hope I've helped some along the way. I'll be back home in MS sometime round August, so expect me to come back.

Something I'd like to leave you all with..

A Maverick I found tonight. Seems the Pro Tour is coming through this part of Florida. I think this may be the best pic I took tonight. The lighting is terrific. Got some great pics of a Bel Air, as well. Tonight kinda brightened up the gloom I've been in. Seeing the classic cars around. Novas, Grabber, nice Stingray. I got cheered up for a bit.

I'll see about the local library, and using their computers a couple times a week. There's not much choice really. I don't even know if my grandfather's wiring could handle my computer. Well, ladies and gents, I guess I'll be signing off now. Might pop back on tomorrow for a bit if I can.

On a promising side note, 99.9% of libraries allow you to surf porn on their systems. They may charge to print out screenshots...

See you soon :)

That's harsh man...have you got a job? If so get dialup and use it when your grandad is asleep.

Sorry to hear about the shit you are going through man. Your grandfather doesn't seem like he's going to be fun living with. Just work hard and get out of there asap ;)

Yeah, that's the thing. I'm only home 3 days a week. Most of those days are spent catching up on sleep and playing with the pc. I paid my grandmother rent as well. The only reason I've been given to get out, is that my college semester is up.

I'm going to look into either moving my cable internet service to grandpa's house, or signing up for a new one. I may have to get a cheap window unit too. The hot water would be an issue, and other than boiling it, I wouldn't have any.

There's been a lot of twists and turns in my life so far, and I can only expect more for the future. But.. You've got to play the cards you're dealt. I'll try to make the best of it. I appreciate everything guys. I'll be moving in the morning I guess. Drop me a line if you feel like it.

Took more than a week to get internets back, but spent my time working on other projects. I'm missing air conditioning so much right now. I'm probably going to head back home to MS about mid July. It'll be good to get back to normalcy. Til then I'm hold up in an old house. I do have an actual pc desk that relatives left in an abandoned unfinished house. Instead of an old tv dinner tray..

Edit: Less than 25 to go Stork ;):D
