 Good News -- I will be able to finish inventorying the figs for the store sooner than expected.  Bad News -- The reason the inventory will get done quickly is because I lost my job today. Good News -- I don't have to worry about a work emergency interrupting Origins. Bad News -- I will not be attending Origins due to the need to prepare for the hearing about my dismissal. Life is somewhere on the far side of sucks right now. I'll keep everyone posted. I will also forward all pertinent paperwork to Stalker, Southpaw, Coldthunder, Sylvas and The One King. Make me proud. I will miss the camraderie and fun but this is one of those times when RL must take precedence no matter how much you do not want it to.

The games will run without you and if need be, I'll run one or two in your stead, depending on timeframe. |

I know the games will go off. The Midwest Crew is top notch and don't need me. It's just that I was looking forward to seeing everyone and having a great time -- not to mention the cheescake......mmmmmm cheesecake.

Sure thing. Just letting you and the Boys know that I'll try and take some of the pressure off, if I can. |

Hello.
I dislike when bad things happen to good people. I hope you win your case or better find a better job where you are more appreciated for who you are and the good things you bring to the job.

"CLANK" "CLANK" What's that sound you ask? That's the sound of my stepping up to assure you that all will be handled at Origins. No worries Brother! You just go and take care of this looong over-due business!

TK,
Hang in there. Take a quick break, and then hit the ground running. Something good will come your way, just a matter of time.
