Quoting Bladewing:
For those who knew, my sis and bro in law have been fighting a long custody battle. Today came the final deal. Two years of work, struggle, etc have culminated in a 'win' (if it can be called such when the contest is within a family). So two future rockers will be brought up in a great environment!
The whole deal has been for their well-being, and for once in a great while the bipeds in suits make a good call. I've heard and viewed a few horror stories. This was thankfully done quickly with no court bloodbath. For that as well I can be thankful. Lawyers aren't called sharks for nothing. At least some.
So I'm gonna have to let it all slowly sink in. Most days everyone feels like they have been ridden hard and hung up wet, now it's the first few hours of cautious celebration.
Personally I'm the type who waits for what comes next. What is lurking in the dark that was overlooked. For now, I'm happy yet numb. The kids are fucking good to go for years to come. Can't wait to see them grow, help em as I can (even though I can be a hardnose about lots of things, call me old-fashioned about having a Code to live by, I plan on being as much, yet not the exact hardcase me pop was, and I thank him often in my mind for it as a man). Birthdays, holidays, zombie apocalypse, whatever, man. Fucking bring it and we'll rock on!
The kids were so happy tonight, one of em as soon as the news was given jumped in my arms like a monkey and just clung to me, happy. Never forget that that is what we are here for. Those moments.
Life is usually a grind, tedious, frustrating, and as adults there is fucking small to no reward most days. But it's Christmas and all that all at once when it goes right. To be involved in a kid's life is an honor, and great responsibility.
I am flattered picking them up at school, and have my Pack I walk home. Other kids who now know me, come up and say HI, and are excited to talk to me about their day. We walk home, or run, and goof off for all of one or two blocks, but it is what makes my world turn now. That level of trust and happiness makes me feel like a super hero. I remember my days as a kid wondering if I'd ever be as cool as some adults I secretly idolized.
Suddenly I'm there, but I have no pretensions about being imagined a super hero. It's just cool as hell when your day is shit, and the kids are happy to see you. It's so simple. Be good. Protect and all that super hero bit. Cause every adult can be one to any kid. Use your powers for good. You'll be amazed.
PS, this whole ordeal has been why I said screw this place. It still stands. This was only a last heads up for those who knew of the details and mighta remembered. I never 'looked' here for Twu Wuv, that doesn't exist. This was never a place I culled for a woman. I know the games and the bullshit. I know how ridiculous all of this digital fuckery is. I for one am done with it. I found this place by accident, made some pals over many years, and now that they know how to contact me they are welcome to at any time.
Beyond that I have no further desire to piss away any more time here. Life is too short. I know how to piss time away, with far more results.
So Noods, Mo, and a few others, ya know where I am. Drop a line anytime. Anyone else interested in saying hi and all can talk to the Noods, and I trust his judgement in who to send along. For those I know here and haven't spoken to in awhile, I hope that life has been as kind as it can be.
To those I don't know, read the words of Mo and da Noods. Dunno if Wofsbane is still about, or HTPN, but they are wise lads. Take some advice. Safe travels to all and whenever we meet I hope to buy the first round.
