I hope some old friends still visit this place.
I'm writing this, strangely, to connect to my past. I'm currently doing a life inventory, trying to make some sense out of where I've been and what that means. I don't know if any of my old friends here know this, but this group got me through an awful stage of my life. I was severely depressed, maybe losing my mind, and too immature to know it. I found this weird-ass group of tool lovers and it got me through.
It's so, so strange to me that there are actual people out there, right now, that I talked to like 20 years ago, who might read this and remember me. Jimmy, Amber, Steve, Matt, Maevele, Ryan (and lots of others; please forgive a tired, poor memory). In the spirit of making sense of my shit, I want to thank you profoundly for being a part of my life. Most of you were older than me and it made me feel like I belonged somewhere. I know that's hokey, but a lot of times the truth is hokey. It was like a demented Cheers bar.
And I just hope everybody's doing well. You may think it's absurd, but your friendship meant (means) the world to me. Thank you, thank you, thank you.
If you want to email and catch up, please let me know!
