More blog updates.

I think bethemanager is OOG. It now links to a myspace page which links to unfiction. It's probably crustys real myspace.

Also got a repley to my email to derk.

First, it's great to hear from you as well. "It's been awhile" is an
understatement.

Sorry about getting back to you this late. I've been busy a lot lately and,
to be completely honest with you, I didn't think anyone was even going to
notice that I had a blog back up and running (heck, I didn't realize it
until I thought about doing one today and found that I had already started
one - such is my life).

I got into the food industry for a few reasons:

1) It's fast paced.
2) If you work hard enough it's pretty easy to move up the ranks and get
more money.
3) It's easy for someone to just jump into (which, for as long as I have
been out of work, is great).
4) I did a lot of reading on my time off, which included a lot of "food
industry" type books so I have a pretty decent grasp on things.

It's not "UNI" money which, looking at it from a strange perspective, wasn't
even real money to begin with, but it's something that I can use to get by
for the time being.

Alli has been great to me, but I feel that I need to move out of her
apartment and get a place of my own one of these days.

So, how are things with you? Hope to hear from you again soon. I promise
that I will be quicker in my response time. I have been having memory
problems since last years little "mishap", but I'm trying to write myself
notes to combat this problem.

Until then...

Talked to Derk on IRC. That is to say, get your butts on IRC. #avelon on irc.chat-solutions.org

Here's the short version, if you don't want to read the whole log:

Derk is having bouts of depression because of his medication, and because he has to live a pretty isolated life to stay safe since Lyle is out. A big reason that he started the blog was to "break the rules" and have some contact with people. He's really touched that Team Tollin still cares. about him. :) (I'm not sure how much of that is covered in the blog, since I've barely looked at the new posts.)

He says he will be back "wednesday night." He was on at around 15:00 to 16:00 pacific, so that's my best guess as to when exactly.

Here's the log. Sorry about the weird timestamps. I think the log highlighter I used ( http://stackoverflow.org/tools/highlight.php ) tried to get rid of my timestamps, but missed some digits. The 15 and 16 are hours.

<15> - <KSG> o.O
<15> - <KSG> Derk?
<15> - <derk> A name I know.
<15> - <KSG> Dude!
<15> - <derk> Do I dare? Yeah, sure, why not? Wassup???
<15> - <KSG> Eating, wondering why nobody else is around, not doing my homework....
<15> - <KSG> How have YOU been?
<15> - <derk> Recovering.
<15> - <derk> I think that's the only word for it, at the moment.
<15> - <KSG> I was about to say it's good you're recovering, but that didn't sound so optimistic....
<15> - <derk> Well, it's a process that you learn to combat at times.
<15> - <KSG> Combat, huh?
<15> - <derk> In a way like: You try to find ways around your disability... ways to try and negate the things that hold you back.
<15> - <KSG> Now see, that's optimism. :)
<15> - <derk> It's like with "Lisa"... okay, so she wasn't "real", but why not enjoy it?
<15> - <KSG> There's a great quote.
<15> - <KSG> I see what you mean.
<15> - <derk> So what's been going on with you over the past year?
<15> - <KSG> Not much until about a month ago, when I went back to college.
<15> - <KSG> Now I'm miserably busy.
<15> - <KSG> But you're more important than that six-page essay that was due a week ago!
<15> - <derk> They still give you credit for it being that late?
<15> - <KSG> No idea. Wish me luck.
<15> - <derk> Will do... I'll make a "Post-it" for it.
<15> - <KSG> Awesome.
<15> - <derk> I talked to House today. Wasn't much of a talker, but I can understand. It's not like he (?) knew me at all.
<15> - <KSG> (She.)
<15> - <derk> I'll make a note of that as well.
<15> - <KSG> She'll probably have more to say if you get to know her.
<15> - <KSG> Come to think of it, I wonder if she's online....
<15> - <derk> Well, I was trying, but these meds don't like me very much.
<15> - <KSG> Eep, meds. :\
<15> - <KSG> They making life difficult for you?
<15> - <derk> Mood-wise, yes.
<15> - <derk> Sometimes I'm myself, sometimes I'm not.
<15> - <derk> With House, I wasn't.

<15> - <KSG> Anyway, I was asking how you weren't yourself.
<15> - <derk> Right, well, I don't know how much you got, but it's like I would type something in and really not remember what we were talking about.
<15> - <KSG> So the meds are messing up your short-term memory?
<15> - <derk> Meds, side effects of being off the "ARM" and who knows what else is causing this.
<15> - <derk> But, like I said before, it's just one of those things that I am trying to learn how to live with.
<15> - <KSG> ARM + meds
<15> - <KSG> Bad combination, I guess.
<15> - <derk> Well, being out of the "ARM" is about as good a thing as I could have hoped for. I guess it's just one of those things where you really can't be sure what was really better in the end.
<15> - <KSG> I have to admit that I only just realised you had updated your blog lately, so I've only had a chance to skip through anything you said about the ARM.
<15> - <KSG> Real life is better in the end.
<15> - <derk> Well, it was real life for me at the time.
<15> - <KSG> True.
<15> - <KSG> But wouldn't you have died eventually?
<15> - <KSG> And there are people you wouldn't have met.
<15> - <derk> I will die eventually anyway. And I'm sure that I will not meet everyone there is to meet. Not that I regret anything, I just have thoughts sometimes.
<15> - <derk> Welcome to the "depression" portion of my side effects.
<15> - <KSG> That's a nasty side effect.
<15> - <derk> And is why I don't really talk about what happend too much.
<15> - <derk> It gets me thinking about it, ya know?
<15> - <KSG> Yeah, I think I know what you mean.
<15> - <KSG> Okay, this is going to be really silly, but that's kind of the idea....
<15> - <derk> ?
<15> - <KSG> Next time you have depressing thoughts, think of the Team Tollin kitten. :)
<15> - <KSG> Did you ever see that thing?
<15> - <derk> I don't remember.
<15> - <KSG> It's hard to be depressed when you're giggling.
<15> - <KSG> Hang on, I think I have a link to it.
<15> - <KSG> http://i4.photobucket.com/albums/y137/Urza01913/TTlogo.jpg
<15> - <derk> okay... nature's on the phone and I kinda have to answer it... I'll brb.
<15> - <KSG> K.
<15> - <KSG> Okay, I have to go talk to someone for a second, so I'll BRB too.
<15> - <derk> Back when you are. :)
<15> - <KSG> Back. :)
<15> - <derk> And I can see you're point about the photo.
<15> - <KSG> That kitten can beat the crap out of any depressing side-effects!
<15> - <KSG> ...Hopefully.
<15> - <derk> It's true. And it has made me think about how much people care.
<15> - <derk> I guess it wasn't about what you and everyone else accomplished, it was why.
<15> - <KSG> Oh yeah, remember that when you're depressed, too. :)
<15> - <KSG> We care about you.
<15> - <derk> Well, it's nice to know that I have a lot of friends to talk to. It really helps.
<15> - <derk> Alli is good, to a point. It's nice to have a different view on things.
<15> - <KSG> 'To a point', huh?
<15> - <derk> Rules.
<15> - <derk> With Lyle being out and all, we have all of these rules set up.
<15> - <KSG> Uh oh.
<15> - <KSG> Rules are never good.
<15> - <derk> Lyle being out is even worse, I suppose.
<15> - <derk> That is why we moved out of the state as soon as his case was thrown out.
<15> - <KSG> Probably a good decision.
<15> - <KSG> Tell me about the rules, then.
<15> - <derk> But now it's like I'm "sheltered". No one, and I mean the people that I work with, don't know my real name.
<15> - <derk> I can't tell anyone where we are.
<15> - <derk> We change phone numbers every month.
<15> - <derk> We try not to call anyone too much.
<15> - <KSG> Wow, that must be hard to get used to.
<15> - <derk> It is. I just don't know for how long these rules are in effect for?
<15> - <derk> Am I really living my life if I'm not really living MY life?
<15> - <derk> It's like I'm back where I was a year ago.
<15> - <derk> I love Alison, she's my sister after all, and I understand why these rules are in place. I just kinda wish I didn't feel like I was being so afraid.
<15> - <KSG> I see where the depression comes in.
<15> - <derk> And I even wonder if what I am being afraid of is living or dying?
<15> - <KSG> ...Both?
<15> - <KSG> Lyle is the problem though, not life in general.
<15> - <derk> I guess that's why I wanted to create the blog. In a way it's like breaking the rules and being alive again.
<15> - <KSG> Team Tollin to the rescue, huh?
<15> - <KSG> I'm glad I could help you break the rules.
<15> - <derk> On an emotional level, yes.
<15> - <derk> Honestly I didn't think anyone was going to notice it. But I'm glad you guys did.
<15> - <derk> You are helping me live again. And for that, I am greatful.
<15> - <derk> Now if you could just get mIRC to include that spell-checker I was going to complain about to them last year.
<15> - <derk> :)
<15> - <KSG> haha
<15> - <KSG> Dude, it took them like five years to impliment kanji.
<15> - <KSG> They'll never get around to spell-checking.
<15> - <derk> :)
<15> - <derk> We can dream, I guess.
<15> - <KSG> Maybe someone can make a script that announces "you spelled 'blog' right!" whenever you type it.
<15> - * derk shakes head
<16> - <derk> You have no idea how much that confuses me.
<16> - <KSG> Maybe it was an in-joke. Maybe someone at blogspot thought it would be funny not to include blog.
<16> - <derk> Well, they have a really strange sense of humor.
<16> - <derk> More evil then strange.
<16> - <KSG> An evil sense of humor....
<16> - <KSG> I will never look at blogs the same way again.
<16> - <derk> :)
<16> - <derk> Well, it was great seeing and talking to you again. I have to get ready for my move on Thursday. But, I will be back before I go AFK Wednesday night.
<16> - <KSG> No promises, but I'll try to be around.
<16> - <KSG> It was great talking to you, too.
<16> - <derk> Thanks for the chat. I'll catch you sometime if not tomorrow.
<16> - <KSG> Yup. Later.
<16> - <derk> c-ya.
<16> - * derk (derktollinSPLATa7e4540.1ccf6d0.307615a5.31b34b44X) Quit (Quit: )

I would write that script, but I'm kind of busy, and the only way I can think of to do it would seriously conflict with other scripts, like every alias ever. Alas.

Sorry for the double-post, but adding an entire chat log to the post above seems a bit excessive. I promise I'm not trying to increase my post count. :Þ

Short version:

Alison's back, yay!

Lyle sent threatening phone calls and letters their way, which Alison isn't telling Derk about. She feels trapped by the whole situation and guilty about trapping Derk with her rules. She also speculates that Lyle is after her, not Derk.

long version wrote:
<17> - <KSG> Whoah.
<17> - <KSG> Hi.
<17> - <AlisonYoung> Hello, KSG. How are you?
<17> - <KSG> Good, you?
<17> - <AlisonYoung> Fine. Dealing with the pressures of college life and taking care of "you know who".
<17> - <AlisonYoung> He's a bundle, but I love him.
<17> - <KSG> I can identify with the first part....
<17> - <KSG> He says life's been a little bit difficult for you guys lately.
<17> - <AlisonYoung> Yeah, Derk was pretty excited about being here earlier. He told me about his talk with you.
<17> - <KSG> Aw. :)
<17> - <AlisonYoung> Yeah. I wish things weren't so tough around here, but you do what you have to sometimes, even if it gets in the way of having some sort of normal life.
<17> - <AlisonYoung> The right road isn't always the easiest to deal with.
<17> - <KSG> Yeah, life sucks like that sometimes, huh?
<17> - <AlisonYoung> It's only until we can get a judge that isn't so corrupt.
<17> - <KSG> Now that sounds like a plan.
<17> - <AlisonYoung> The only problem is finding one.
<17> - <AlisonYoung> It seems that Lyles' pockets go deeper then we thought.
<17> - <KSG> He can really buy off anyone you can find?
<17> - <KSG> Wow.
<17> - <KSG> You've got your work cut out for you.
<17> - <AlisonYoung> Tell me about it.
<17> - <AlisonYoung> I really hate Lyle for putting us in this situation.
<17> - <KSG> Yeah, I can imagine.
<17> - <KSG> Someone needs to drop a piano on him....
<17> - <AlisonYoung> I never told Derk this because he had so many other things to deal with, but we started receiving phone calls and letters soon after Lyles' case got thrown out.
<17> - <AlisonYoung> And not the "Get well soon" kind.
<17> - <KSG> Holy crap!
<17> - <KSG> I would be pretty freaked out about that, too.
<17> - <KSG> So that's why you're moving and changing numbers and so forth?
<17> - <AlisonYoung> Hence our move and some rules that I had to put in place.
<17> - <KSG> Yup.
<17> - <KSG> And since the judges are all corrupt, you can't go to them with the letters....
<17> - <AlisonYoung> I just feel trapped because I already see what Derk is going through and wonder how much I should say about the past and our current situation.
<17> - <AlisonYoung> Well, we've tried that and have gone through as many DA's as judges.
<17> - <KSG> Ah.
<17> - <KSG> I don't know how much you should say, either.
<17> - <AlisonYoung> Life sure has a way of repeating itself, huh?
<17> - <KSG> Yeah, looks like it.
<17> - <KSG> At least this time you don't have to tell him the world isn't real...
<17> - <KSG> Good luck hiding from Lyle, then.
<17> - <AlisonYoung> We've done okay sticking together, but now that Derk is moving out... well, I can't watch him like I used to.
<17> - <AlisonYoung> And that leaves me alone as well.
<17> - <KSG> Will you still be able to keep a close eye on eachother?
<17> - <AlisonYoung> It's tough to say.
<17> - <KSG> Hm. :\
<17> - <AlisonYoung> I don't know if anyone knows where we are.
<17> - <AlisonYoung> I don't know how much Derk is going to remember about the rules.
<17> - <KSG> The first probably depends on how deep Lyle's pockets are.
<17> - <AlisonYoung> He has his "Post-its" on his blog to help remind him of some things, but, other then that, he's on his own.
<17> - <KSG> I'm sure he'll try his hardest. I just hope that's enough.
<17> - <AlisonYoung> Same here.
<17> - <AlisonYoung> He's bright at times, but even remembering to take his meds is something that I have to control.
<17> - <KSG> In that case, is it really wise to let him move out?
<17> - <KSG> I know he has a right to, and I see why he wants to be on his own, but I'm worried about him now.
<17> - <AlisonYoung> So am I, but I guess it comes down to how safe I can really keep him.
<17> - <AlisonYoung> I not home very often to begin with. So, if anyone was watching, they'd had their chances.
<17> - <AlisonYoung> I'm*
<17> - <KSG> Yeah, I guess.
<17> - <AlisonYoung> So I sort of look at this from that perspective.
<17> - <KSG> It makes sense.
<17> - <KSG> What about you? Are you going to be alright on your own?
<17> - <AlisonYoung> In a way, I've been alone all this time.
<17> - <KSG> Depressing, but I'm taking it as a yes.
<17> - <AlisonYoung> Sorry, yes.
<17> - <AlisonYoung> I don't have as much of a problem coming up with ways out of situations as Derk does.
<17> - <KSG> You've got that going for you, then.
<17> - <KSG> You got him out of the ARM! You can deal with Lyle. :)
<17> - <AlisonYoung> True. But the other part of that is that Derk likes to get himself into situations more then I do.
<17> - <KSG> Oh. You're doomed then.
<17> - <KSG> (kidding!)
<17> - <AlisonYoung> I know. :)
<17> - <KSG> :)
<17> - <KSG> Let's just hope he remembers the rules.
<17> - <AlisonYoung> I also want to see him improve emotionally. This move, while it's not far, should help with that.
<17> - <AlisonYoung> I'd hate to think this, but I might be the cause of some of these problems.
<17> - <KSG> You?
<17> - <AlisonYoung> Unintentionally, of course.
<17> - <AlisonYoung> Well, when you have someone appearing to "control" you, it gets old really fast.
<17> - <KSG> Ah, the rules.
<17> - <KSG> Well, it can't be easy living with all that, but you shouldn't feel bad about it. He's a lot better living under rules than getting phone calls from Lyle.
<17> - <AlisonYoung> And I will admit that I do make sure that he knows them when I see him. It makes him mad, but I think he gets it.
<17> - <AlisonYoung> Very true.
<17> - <AlisonYoung> And then that get's me thinking as well. What if Lyle isn't after Derk at all?
<17> - <KSG> As in, he's after you?
<17> - <AlisonYoung> If someone is watching, he's had Derk alone, but never me.
<17> - <KSG> The phone calls and letters didn't say, then?
<17> - <AlisonYoung> So who are my rules really for and am I really getting in the way of Derk living a real life, if that is the case?
<17> - <AlisonYoung> They weren't specific in terms of "who". But they were short enough to get the point across.
<17> - <KSG> Even if that's the case, I still don't think you should feel guilty about trying to keep Derk safe.
<17> - <AlisonYoung> There is just so much to consider that may not even need considering that I'm not quite sure if what I am doing is right or not anymore.
<17> - <KSG> I understand why that would be hard on you.
<17> - <AlisonYoung> It's running my life.
<17> - <AlisonYoung> Everything that I do is for things that I think about.
<17> - <AlisonYoung> I'm trying to cover any and all possible situations, but it's the one that I don't think about that scares me.
<17> - <KSG> Have you got any plans beyond 'try to find a judge that isn't corrupt'?
<17> - <AlisonYoung> No. Right now it's just been trying to keep everyone safe while trying to take care of getting Lyle behind bars.
<17> - <AlisonYoung> I would hate to keep moving, but that may be an option.
<17> - <KSG> I would hate that, too.
<17> - <KSG> The bastard is making life hard enough on you guys already.
<17> - <AlisonYoung> I would like to think that I am tougher then anything this guy can dish out, but he is playing such an emotional game with me right now.
<17> - <AlisonYoung> It feels like I'm the "bad guy".
<17> - <KSG> You can hope that he's trying to scare you because that's the only thing he can do right now.
<17> - <KSG> You're not the "bad guy".
<17> - <KSG> Don't let some creepy stalker type convince you that you are.
<17> - <AlisonYoung> You're right.
<17> - <AlisonYoung> If you were in my shoes, what would you do about Derk? How would you handle this?
<17> - <AlisonYoung> The move, I mean.
<17> - <KSG> To be honest, I have no idea.
<17> - <KSG> I know that doesn't help.
<17> - <AlisonYoung> And neither do I. So we can agree on that.
<17> - <KSG> I think no matter what you do, you kind of just have to hope for the best right now.
<17> - <AlisonYoung> So I should let this thing play out, but keep on my toes?
<17> - <KSG> Yeah, that's the best answer I can think of.
<17> - <AlisonYoung> I agree... I was trying to think of something else, but that was all that was coming to me.
<17> - <AlisonYoung> Besides, maybe not taking care of Derk all the time will allow him to try and take care of himself for a little while.
<17> - <KSG> Yeah.
<17> - <AlisonYoung> And maybe he'll see my side of things.
<17> - <AlisonYoung> Just not too much of my side, though.
<17> - <KSG> A little bit of freedom might help him out, and if he's able to take care of himself, maybe you can worry a little bit less, too.
<17> - <AlisonYoung> That's true.
<17> - <AlisonYoung> It will also give me more time to focus on getting Lyle behind bars.
<17> - <KSG> Well, that convinces me.
<17> - <KSG> Derk moving is a good thing.
<17> - <AlisonYoung> I was so hoping to hear otherwise, but I'm glad I came in here.
<17> - <AlisonYoung> A mother never wants to see their child go. :)
<17> - <KSG> Aw....
<17> - <AlisonYoung> Well, I think I should go, sit down and have a talk with Derk about this and let him know how I feel so that he will at least know that I support him in it.
<17> - <KSG> That's a good idea.
<17> - <KSG> Nice seeing you again. It's only been like a year.
<17> - <AlisonYoung> Thank you very much for listening.
<17> - <KSG> Any time. :)
<17> - <AlisonYoung> It was great seeing you, too. A year has been way too long.
<17> - <AlisonYoung> Take care of yourself and I hope to talk to you again soon.
<17> - <KSG> You too.
<17> - <AlisonYoung> night.
<17> - <KSG> G'night.

I hope people will be around when Derk comes back tomorrow, because I probably can't be.

Anyway, I present to you all the shortest chat ever.

<derk> Good afternoon.
<House> Hi.
<House> I finally get to meet the legendary Derk Tollin.
<derk> I'm sorry if this sounds bad, but I don't know you, do I?
<House> No.
<House> I'm a friend of KSG, though.
<derk> Okay. Sometimes I just need to make sure. Oh, I remember someone going by that name.
* derk is far from being "Legendary", but I thank you all the same. :)
<derk> So, how are things?
<House> Um, good.
<House> Sorry, I'm not a huge talker.
<derk> That's okay. I am, so I'll make up for it.
<derk> Unless I can't think of anything to say, and then I'm pretty stuck.
<derk> Are you a reader of my blog?
<House> Yeah.
<House> I'm making a Team Tollin banner right now, actually.
<derk> Ah, good. I'm going to try and make something before I'm AFK, but I'm not quite sure how much time I'll have between here, work and that.
<derk> But, it's in my head for something to do.
<derk> I also have it as a Post-it, I think.
<derk> I'm not quite sure if I remembered to write one for that.
<House> Make an extra Post-it, just to be safe.
<derk> Well, it's not an actual "Post-it"... it's hard to explain, but if you've read my blog then you'd probably get it.
<derk> Okay, found it. :)
<derk> And it's been added.
<derk> Well, it was really nice meeting you, House. Unfortunately, I have to get this room ready before Alli get's home from her classes.
<derk> I'll try to make it back later if you or someone else is around.
<derk> Until then...
<House> Bye Derk.
<derk> c-ya.

Derk chat, my first one on one-


Quote:

[18:14:29] * Derk has joined #avelon
[18:15:06] <Derk> Afternoon
[18:15:15] <Darkwingstalker> Hey derk
[18:15:23] <Darkwingstalker> Nice to see you.
[18:15:26] <Derk> How are you?
[18:15:28] <Derk> Same.
[18:15:43] <Darkwingstalker> im good actually, i had heard you came on yesterday, shame i missed it
[18:16:03] <Derk> Well, you are here today.
[18:16:16] <Darkwingstalker> yeah, So, Hows the knee feeling?
[18:16:48] <Derk> Better, thanks. I can walk without my brace, which is good. I'm determined to not let it get the best of me.
[18:17:24] <Darkwingstalker> yeah, thats probably for the best man, im glad it fixed up so well, a friend of mine wont be walking for a year or two.
[18:17:26] <Derk> I'm sorry if I seem sort of "hidden", but I don't recognize your name.
[18:17:34] <Darkwingstalker> you dont?? oh sorry.
[18:17:44] <Darkwingstalker> I was.. a shadowhelper last time around.
[18:17:51] <Darkwingstalker> as i was doing my final exams.
[18:18:10] <Darkwingstalker> So i coudnt be with the rest of team tollins, if Kjartan was here, he would vouch for me =/
[18:18:15] <Derk> I get sort of shy around new people.
[18:18:23] <Darkwingstalker> thats fine, i do aswell.
[18:18:47] <Derk> Once I talk to you a few times, though, I'll lighten up. Promise. Smile
[18:19:16] <Darkwingstalker> Smile - its unlucky no one else is here, you were quite the topic yesterday, People havent seen you in a while, y'know?
[18:19:53] <Derk> I know how it feels. Everyone was great to me and I appreciated everything they did and continue to do for me.
[18:20:00] <Derk> I missed everyone a lot.
[18:20:21] <Darkwingstalker> Yeah, well its good your "back on the radar" as they put it.
[18:20:44] <Derk> Well, I'm kinda hoping it's a little bit "calmer" this time around.
[18:20:49] <Derk> Last time was a "trip".
[18:21:12] <Darkwingstalker> definitely, i would say you only need 1 big adventure in a persons lifetime
[18:21:55] <Derk> Well, I'm moving tomorrow (which is kinda why I wanted to stop in today). So, for me, it's gonna be like having two adventures in my lifetime.
[18:22:12] <Derk> This will be the first time I'll be alone in this new life.
[18:22:16] <Darkwingstalker> yeah, i recently moved 2-3 times, had some living difficulties, its never much fun..
[18:22:21] <Darkwingstalker> well, we are always here Derk.
[18:23:19] <Derk> And it appears as Alison is behind me as well in this move. We had a talk last time and, shockingly enough, she actually was okay with it.
[18:23:53] <Derk> Given her "rules" I didn't think she would be as open to it as she was.
[18:23:58] <Darkwingstalker> Rules?
[18:24:22] <Derk> Some rules that she put in place for reasons unknown to me right now.
[18:24:32] <Derk> But I'm sure she has her reasons.
[18:24:49] <Darkwingstalker> yeah, i mean, you missed on on alot of interaction didnt you?
[18:24:56] <Darkwingstalker> so i guess the reasons Ok..
[18:25:32] <Darkwingstalker> but, shes ok with it, thats the main thing right??
[18:25:37] <Derk> Right.
[18:26:02] <Derk> It's nice to know that I have that support.
[18:26:02] <Darkwingstalker> Moving to a big place?
[18:26:07] <Derk> Nah.
[18:26:14] <Derk> Can't afford anything huge.
[18:27:09] <Darkwingstalker> still, must feel nice to spread your wings alittle?
[18:27:23] <Derk> I can't wait. Smile
[18:28:16] <Darkwingstalker> It should be great, i mean, i just spent a year living practically alone [roommates worked a way away. only saw em at weekends] and it was great to pad around my apartment by myself.
[18:29:04] <Derk> I'd hate to admit it, but there are some "freedoms" that you just can't do around other people.
[18:29:10] <Derk> Like walk around in your udies.
[18:29:12] <Derk> undies*
[18:29:13] * Darkwingstalker grins
[18:29:23] <Darkwingstalker> didnt stop me Wink
[18:29:37] <Derk> It's sad that that will be my first sign of real "freedom".
[18:30:05] <Darkwingstalker> Its the little things that matter though right?
[18:30:30] <Derk> It's the little things that I look forward to. And yes, those matter more then I thought that they would.
[18:30:48] <Derk> Being without them, and now having them, will be something I think I will enjoy.
[18:31:25] <Derk> Plus I think that Alison might try to get a room mate.
[18:31:42] <Derk> She said that she doesn't like the idea of being alone.
[18:31:51] <Darkwingstalker> thats fair, some people dont enjoy it.
[18:31:55] <Derk> But I'm looking forard to it.
[18:32:19] * Derk is sitting on the floor trying to type. It's not working in his favor.
[18:32:27] <Darkwingstalker> I can imagine.. must feel nice to be totally alone once in a while after what happened.
[18:33:15] <Derk> I don't know if this is a good thing or not, but a lot of that is starting to slip away from my memory.
[18:33:33] <Darkwingstalker> Maybe its subconcious.
[18:33:54] <Derk> I wrote something about "Team Tollin" last night on my blog and looked at it today and couldn't remember some if it.
[18:34:19] <Darkwingstalker> Have you seen a Doc?
[18:34:38] <Derk> I have a doctor that comes and sees me. Home visits.
[18:34:51] <Derk> Darned if I know what his name is though.
[18:35:21] <Derk> It's one of those names that is really not easy to remember in the first place.
[18:35:27] <Darkwingstalker> hmm, that IS slightly worrying.. reminds me a little of that film, memento?? i dont know if you have seen it.
[18:35:46] <Derk> Who's in it?
[18:36:32] <Darkwingstalker> erm... darn, ironic as it is, i cant remember.. i think its guy pearce.
[18:36:58] <Derk> Heard of him, but can't picture him.
[18:37:24] <Darkwingstalker> Its not a bad movie, about a guy that has no short term memory.
[18:37:28] <Derk> That was one good thing about the "ARM" program, we were very up to speed on most things.
[18:37:30] <Darkwingstalker> its kinda confusing.
[18:37:43] <Darkwingstalker> Yeah, better then being locked in a room i suppose =]
[18:38:11] <Derk> Given what happend for me to end up there, yes.
[18:38:25] <Derk> The other option probably would have been worse off.
[18:38:55] <Darkwingstalker> definitely.
[18:39:03] <Darkwingstalker> its great you got out ok.
[18:39:30] <Derk> Well, I wouldn't have been able to do it without you guys.
[18:40:08] <Darkwingstalker> thanks, although, truth be told i wasnt able to help really.. which is ashame.
[18:40:35] <Darkwingstalker> i kinda got hooked in towards the VERY end, and as said ,exams were happening..
[18:40:40] <Derk> A little bit of something is better then nothing at all (depending on what it is, I suppose).
[18:41:14] <Darkwingstalker> thats a good way to look at it...
[18:41:21] <Darkwingstalker> did you have alot of stuff to pack up?
[18:41:47] <Derk> I didn't really know how much stuff I had until I started to pack it up.
[18:42:25] <Derk> I just have the computer to go and then that's all of it.
[18:42:37] <Derk> But I spent about a week going through everything.
[18:42:57] <Darkwingstalker> yeah, I had alot when i first moved. 3 moves later, i have mercifully less.
[18:43:17] <Derk> I heard marriage will do the same thing for your items.
[18:43:34] <Derk> You start out having a lot of things and, before you know it, it's all hers.
[18:43:37] <Derk> Smile
[18:44:08] <Derk> But I'm a guy... I probably have all of the wrong things to begin with.
[18:45:03] <Darkwingstalker> heh, if your breaking of a marriage, you wont get anything but your toothbrush and the Really REALLY bad Cd's you bought in a bargain bin somewhere =/
[18:45:32] <Derk> Smile
[18:45:50] <Derk> And that's if she's being nice.
[18:45:54] <Darkwingstalker> yeah.
[18:46:03] <Darkwingstalker> Your lucky to get the toothbrush to be honest.
[18:46:28] <Derk> Well, I wouldn't know about that just yet.
[18:46:32] <Derk> Maybe some day.
[18:46:42] <Derk> The marriage part anyway.
[18:47:01] <Darkwingstalker> me neither, but i know alot of people Razz
[18:47:16] <Darkwingstalker> hmm, im considering ordering chinese take out.
[18:47:51] <Derk> Great, now you got me thinking about ordering pizza.
[18:47:58] <Darkwingstalker> DO IT Razz
[18:48:12] <Darkwingstalker> i love pizza, but i had pizza last week, and i try to mix it up abit.
[18:48:32] <Derk> I've had this really strange craving for it lately.
[18:48:43] <Darkwingstalker> any type of pizza or???
[18:49:12] <Derk> I think just pizza in general.
[18:49:40] <Darkwingstalker> as long as its not anchovies.
[18:49:47] * Derk shudders
[18:49:48] <Darkwingstalker> theres some major problem with anchovies in this world.
[18:50:09] <Derk> They stink and they are covered in oil.
[18:50:26] <Darkwingstalker> alot like seals.. you dont see seals on pizza.
[18:50:34] <Derk> hehe
[18:50:37] <Darkwingstalker> i dont think ANYONE likes Anchovies.
[18:50:53] <Derk> Well, if pizza places carry it, I'm sure some people do.
[18:51:07] <Darkwingstalker> It is weird to have a craving for it, maybe you saw an advert, or something like that, and it got inside your brain.
[18:51:55] <Derk> Well, I'm not much of a TV person.
[18:52:07] <Derk> But I'm sure your right about seeing it somewhere.
[18:52:31] <Darkwingstalker> yeah, Maybe someone was cooking it when you went somewhere, or you dreamt it, all sorts of weird stuff happens.
[18:52:55] <Darkwingstalker> i just sent Kjart a message at work ,if hes online, he will hop on and say hi
[18:52:56] <Derk> Well, if I was going by my dreams, it wouldn't be pizza I'd be craving.
[18:53:01] <Darkwingstalker> hehe
[18:53:06] <Darkwingstalker> i woudnt know
[18:53:11] <Darkwingstalker> im not Physic.
[18:53:18] <Darkwingstalker> gah, my spelling.
[18:53:30] <Derk> No worries, mine isn't all that grand either.
[18:55:08] <Darkwingstalker> its gonna be a shame while you are away, do drop in when you get back, the guys will be happy to see you
[18:55:21] <Derk> Those people make me cringe anyway... Psychics... sometimes they are right on, but it's such an obvious answer to a question that it makes you wonder how they make any money.
[18:55:41] <Darkwingstalker> Yeah, we have one over in britain, and hes so stupid
[18:55:57] <Darkwingstalker> hes like "oh, im being possesed!!! POSSESSED!!!
[18:56:04] <Darkwingstalker> then he shouts, and kicks stuff.
[18:56:07] <Darkwingstalker> and "passes out"
[18:56:23] <Derk> Sounds like me in the evenings.
[18:57:28] <Derk> Well, it was nice meeting you but I gotta jet.
[18:57:33] <Darkwingstalker> heh, your not making a career outta it
[18:57:36] <Derk> I'll be on later though.
[18:57:36] <Darkwingstalker> ok, nice to see you Derk.
[18:57:41] <Darkwingstalker> i might see you later.
[18:57:57] <Derk> Sounds good. Talk to you later then if you are around.
[18:58:03] <Derk> Until then...
[18:58:05] <Darkwingstalker> nice to meet you =]
[18:58:10] <Derk> same.
[18:58:17] * Derk has quit IRC (Quit: )


im just heading out, So i cant colour code it, but ill try to get back on later.
i coudnt think of an In game reason to be ther, so just claimed i was there last time, probably a mistake, but i was doing something else when he came on, and it stunned me.

<Darkwingstalker> Hey tracey.
<TracyBunn> Bonjor... ah, whatever. Hi!
<Darkwingstalker> wow, you know, its funny you should come in, i saw Derk this morning.
<TracyBunn> We have a network set up, a la Alison and her brain, so I know things. hehe
<Darkwingstalker> hehe Razz
<Darkwingstalker> so, hows life in europe?
<TracyBunn> phonetasteek
<TracyBunn> Marriage is a blast. I rule!!!
<Darkwingstalker> im glad, im a european myself =p
<TracyBunn> My husband is my "whipping boy". Smile
<TracyBunn> Where from?
<Darkwingstalker> im from england myself.
<TracyBunn> Okay, you're above us then.
<Darkwingstalker> its not bad, hows the language? Razz
<TracyBunn> Hard.
<Darkwingstalker> i figured, its bonjour by the way =]
<Darkwingstalker> and it doesnt get any easier from there =/
<TracyBunn> I know. I've been here a while now and still can't get the jist of it.
<TracyBunn> That's why I'm making Poke learn English.
<Darkwingstalker> hehe, thats fine untill you need to buy a loaf of bread right?
<TracyBunn> I make him do the shopping. Like I said, he's my "whipping boy".
<Darkwingstalker> lucky for some ^^
<TracyBunn> Well, it was love at first sight for us.
<TracyBunn> I'm sort of taking advantage of that, but if he's willing, I'm able.
<Darkwingstalker> hehe Smile nice to know your doing fine Razz
<Delusional> sup tracy.
<TracyBunn> I haven't talked to eveyone on "TT", so I thought it would be nice to pop in and say "bon... bonjour".
<TracyBunn> Hello, Delusional.
<Delusional> have you kept in touch with derk much?
<Darkwingstalker> yeah,besides the brainlink with alison Razz
<TracyBunn> Mostly via e-mail, but Alison set up a network so we are pretty much always in touch, even if it may not seem it.
<Delusional> I mean Is he "ok"? reading his new blog he kind of sound s a little out of it.
<Delusional> paranoid mabey.
<Delusional> or should he be?
<TracyBunn> He's going through some things at the moment, but given his condition I can understand.
<Darkwingstalker> yeah, when he came in earlier he said his memory was getting bad, im kinda worried about him
<TracyBunn> He's trying to get used to this new life, so it's sort of rough on him at times.
<Delusional> yeah completly understandable. just want to make sure everythings alright.
<TracyBunn> Did Alison tell you about Lyles' letters?
<Delusional> I havn't talked to her.
<TracyBunn> What an, excuse my French, a**.
<Darkwingstalker> i havent spoke to allison, what happened with the letters?
<TracyBunn> Right after Lyle got his case thrown out of court by some stupid judge, Alison started receiving letters and phone calls.
<Delusional> I get the felling that lyle may be "after" hiom though from her rules.
<TracyBunn> We all knew who they were from, ya know?
<Darkwingstalker> i havent heard about the rules, derk mentioned them though
<TracyBunn> I can't imagine Lyle being to happy with us, so it makes sense that Alison would be worried. The letters and calls just added to that worry.
<Darkwingstalker> were they threatening?
<Delusional> do you have a copy of the letters on your comp?
<TracyBunn> "Watch your back", "I'm watching you", etc., etc.
<Darkwingstalker> hm..
<Darkwingstalker> Thats...
<TracyBunn> I'm sure Alison made some copies. Might want to ask her.
<Darkwingstalker> That is unusual.
<Delusional> well what could he posably want from derk at this point. I mean he got off.
<TracyBunn> As sick and delusional (no pun intended) as Lyle is, who knows what his motivations may be.
<Delusional> I suppose.
<Darkwingstalker> Yeah, maybe we should let Derk know??
<Darkwingstalker> i mean, hes about to move into his own place
<Delusional> wait he dosn't know about the letters?
<TracyBunn> Since the move Alison hasn't received anything.
<TracyBunn> No, Alison kept the letters and calls from Derk because he was already going through enough.
<TracyBunn> Alison is a tough girl and can handle things like this a lot better then Derk could in his present state.
<Darkwingstalker> derk said he knew there were rules, not why.
<Darkwingstalker> i think we SHOULD tell him. I mean, alison may be tough, but derks moving into his own place, he deserves a heads up dont you think?
<Delusional> I can understand that but if he's in any danger it might hurt him more if he dosn't know to watch out for it.
<TracyBunn> Derk is a pretty understanding guy. He knows that Alison won't do anything that she doesn't think is right for him.
<Delusional> well I hope she's keeping a close eye on him than.
<Delusional> although I'm certain she is.
<TracyBunn> He's only moving about 3 houses down from her, so they will still be pretty close.
<TracyBunn> I guess they came to a "meeting of the minds" last night, from what I understood in her e-mail to me.
<Delusional> well anything new going on with you?(besides the marrage, congrats) what broght you back in here?
<TracyBunn> The truth? Alison was kinda worried and wanted another eye on the ball, so to speak.
<Delusional> well youknow where to look if you need any help with anything.
<TracyBunn> That I do.
* Delusional spills coffee everywhere:/
* chippy has joined #avelon
<Delusional> hey chippy
<Darkwingstalker> hey chippy
* TracyBunn waves
<chippy> hi
<Delusional> what is this "meeting of the minds"?
<TracyBunn> Alison would support his move if he went somewhere close. He said he already thought of that and was only going to be a few houses down. Smile
<TracyBunn> I think Derk knows her better the Alison thinks he does.
<TracyBunn> then*
<Darkwingstalker> he knows alittle.
<TracyBunn> And to be honest, I think he wants to watch over her, too.
<TracyBunn> Even though he may not say it.
<TracyBunn> Kinda makes me feel like the "middle man" in all this, but that's what friends are for.
<Delusional> well it was good talking to you agian tracy but I have to get back to studying for an exam tommarow. if you need anything and i'm not here you can email me at delusional696SPLATgmail.com Later
<TracyBunn> Nice talking to you, too, Delusional. Keep in touch and I'll do the same.
<Darkwingstalker> Bye Delusional
* Darkwingstalker waves
<TracyBunn> Well, Poke is calling me to bed. I guess I should probably go see what he wants (not that I need to guess).
<TracyBunn> It was really nice talking to you Darkwingstalker. It was nice to meet and talk to everyone again.
<Darkwingstalker> Night
* Darkwingstalker waves
<TracyBunn> Goodnight.

...And Blogspot appears to be down. Which sucks, because House just sent in our sig tennis result.

I'm told that basically things move out of News & Rumors when they get increased activity. This is at least worthy of "ARG's with potential" status by now, so get with the massive amounts of relevant posting, guys!

I can't wait. He better not come online while I'm at school. I might have to send him an angry email

I'm not sure how you define "tomorrow," but I'll try to be online more. I didn't actually need to start getting 6+ hours of sleep a night again. Maybe when Derk gets back, he'll post that sig House and I did to his blog. :)

You two need to start being around for other reasons, too. And where did Prof get to? NaNoWriMo isn't for another day yet!

The Move and the need for a break.

If you have not heard, or maybe you have, I have moved to another town and, truth be told, a completely different state. Because of this event, I will not be here as often as I had hoped. A new town means a new job, a new life, a new car, a new internet connection (hello, from Kinko's, btw) and so many other things that trying to keep in contact with my many friends will become more of a challenge then I had hoped it would become.

I did not tell Alli where I was moving. In fact, I only told her what I believed she wanted to hear from me when we last spoke.

The truth is that I needed to be away from it all. The past, Alison and just my life in general. If I knew that it would also mean being away from my on-line friends as well, I probably would have thought this move through a little bit more carefully. I just really didn't know how this new found freedom and the move itself would effect me personally, emotionally and financially.

It goes without saying that I will be back. When? Well, I can not say for certain, but I hope it will be soon.

Look for me to update my blog again sometime in January. I figure that by then, things will be in place and will allow me to talk to you like I would like to.


Looks like a delay. They probably never expected the updated blog to be found so fast in the first place.
Unless of course this is part of the game...... Wink
