Moving on
I went to bed earlier than normal last night and I got up earlier than normal. I got ready for work but ended up getting there at my normal time.
I worked on the problem that I was given the other day where a string tat is being sent to Fannie Mae does not have the right number of spaces. I got going on that again. I had to rebuild a few projects to get the debugging to work correctly.
Then I was called into a meeting with the rest of the Dev team. We are going from Source Safe to a new source system. We were learning about that and helping to set up the new system. After the meeting we had a company lunch. We had pizza and cake.
I got working on my problem again and I also worked on the new source system. I got all the files that I was assigned moved into the new system. I also figured out what the problem with the missing space is. Now I have to figure out how to fix it.
Dave called me up with tickets to the Mariner's game. I went to Renton Honda to get them and I gave Terry a ride to Renton. I could not find someone to go to the game with me so I did not go. I watched the game on TV.
I spent part of the evening looking for a different forum to start to post on. I found one out of Spokane. It seems like many of the members are conservative and there is a much larger age range. I signed up and started to post. I think I will move from G-Shack to the new place. I also shut down my board. It is pretty much just G-Shack people.
I want to distance myself from them. I removed all the G-Shack people from my IM list and I am moving on with life. I don't know how much of a presence I will have on my new board.
I still feel very down. I want to change my life into something more that I like. I have not made all the changes, but I think maybe this is a step in the right direction. I spent too much time on G-Shack and the fun I was having there has diminished over the last month or so.
Many of the people that I use to be able to chat with for long periods of time are all gone or we just don't chat like we use to. It seems they have moved on.

Scottie,
I don't know what happened on G-shack, (I've been hiding under a rock for the past 2 weeks). But I'm really scared man. I heard that you did come out and tell people what only a few of us knew, and I'm really sorry that somebody said something that pissed you off, but man, I really respect you. I'm having some terrible problems with my dad, and you've been my fatherly figure. I hope that we can continue talking because I really miss it. If you want to just move on from the shack and leave all of us behind, then I'm ok with that too. Just let me know man.

I didn't know things were going that bad for you. I noticed you were off my IM list and thought, maybe, just maybe you were not signed in. But after three days I knew something was up. Everyone is in the dumps at one point or another in their lives and it happens to the best of us. The last time it happened to me was last semester. I didn't want to do anything, and became incredibly unproductive. The anguish one feels during this time in uncomparable to all other emotions. It will pass.
I can understand why you want to leave G-Shack, and you have to do what you have to do, but remember that the majority of people on there do genuinely care about you and miss your posts. I think it was you who pointed that out to me when I wanted to leave. But if you decide to leave for good, don't forget to pop in every once in awhile or IM me online. In fact, I was trying to get ahold of you to talk yesterday cause some stuff happened here and I could have used the company. You know where to find me, and I can always be reached at www.yokowenis.com Hope to hear from ya
