You’re welcome, I try to not mess with other people’s lives too much, how can anyone say how another’s should be and what if it turns out to be the wrong direction, that’s what I worry about….too many what if’s in there for me.:)
And I don’t know the whole story about you, but if you are a loner, I quite understand that as I am one too and I just love it and couldn’t be happier. I think you asked earlier if women don’t complicate life and I’d have to say any sort of partner or mate sure does complicate life and more. I wish I would have learned earlier the wonder of not needing a mate, boy I could have spared myself a ton of hurt.
So just keep, keepin on in my book.
I read it. One thing, though, is that it’s much easier to be social on the ‘Net than it is in person. That’s why I have trouble at business events sometimes – shooting the wind is not my cup of tea.
What we need to do is rent a big tour bus for a month this summer and drive it around the country. People could get on and off when and where they want. The Traveling Pond could travel throughout the country, visiting everyone. One could get on in Philadephia, travel to Florida, get off there and catch a plane, bus or train home. Some would spend a week on the bus, some a day, some might just meet the bus and hang out for a night. A Moveable Meet-up.
We’d see who wants in, plan a route, and organize our other summer travels around it. It would a cheap way for Psi to spend some intensive time around all of us, for example.
And you could collect a fee based on the time or miles a person would be on the bus….hey if you get it to Ca. I’m up for a short trip. So who would organize and rent the bus or it could be an RV.
We’d need to see who was interested and what size vehicle we’d need. I’m beat now. I think I will post this as diary tomorrow. Who knows, maybe something interesting will come of it. Night all!
Sounds interesting, Teach! A massive circular route, with the ‘stops’ being regional meetups. Pretty ambitious, but it could be an incredible amount of fun — given time, money & drivers with stamina.
Thanks for your good wishes, btw. Always appreciated!
It won’t appeal to many people and it will probably never happen. It may be just one my wild hairs. Kidspeak has been very quiet about this. But it’s worth floating out there. Some people may decide to do it. You may even be convinced to travel up to Chicago and visit your sister.
But now I am really calling it a night. It’s been fun, once again.
I’m being serious. Usually, I have no issues with confidence. It’s just that this semester has been extremely difficult – and it’s more frustrating because I’ve put much more time into my studies this semester than I did last year, when I tore through the core curriculum.
Not quite the record, but a good night.
So who’s up to psychoanalyze me now? 😛
Well I haven’t had a turn yet, but here goes, I think you are perfectly fine and everything you are doing is perfectly right…
Finally, some validation/affirmation!
Thanks. 🙂
We wouldn’t harass you, if we didn’t care.

If you didn’t see it, I replied to your comment about psychologists, Psi. I’d like you to see it; I don’t expect or want a response.
FYI, I am not a psychoanalyst. Most psychologists aren’t.

where’s boran2 and his “unusual” memory?
I wanted to hear about that memory too.

What’d you think?

Could you imagine the live blogging from the bus? And the photos?
Buses have internet connections?
There must be a way to solve that problem.

But … do we have to sing? And can our bus be psychadelic?
Susan Dey! Be still my pre-teen heart!
I’m picturing BooMan as the Ruben Kincaid character.
Not a pretty picture. But I like the psychedelic bus idea. You know, somebody might own an RV. That’ll work.
I have to truthfully tell you that this idea doesn’t appeal to me at all. Maybe I can just meet the bus along the route at various points …

Throwing out ideas is good. We’ll see what happens.
Mary, I’m with you on this. Teach is an extrovert, but I am not.
My flying fingers are tired out, and hitting the wrong keys too much. I have to stop; have fun, Diane, Psi, Boran, MaryB.
Diane, you did a good thing by starting this…
Night KS, it’s been fun.
Alright, I gotta pack and go to sleep. Heading back to Philly tomorrow for the worst 2 weeks of my life.
Hang in there, Psi. You’ll do fine.
You’ll make it through those weeks. We believe in you.
If only I believed in myself…
That is the tough part.
give it up, I’m through motivating you tonight.

I’m sorry. I thought you were fishing for niceness.
I won’t tell you that I’m sure you’ll do fine. I’ll just say that sometimes confidence is overrated.
