OK.
Gotta catch my breath.
Figured I'd text this out in real life.
I pretty much stay away from sugar, and or sugar substitutes​
So I'm leaving Walmart, and some girl scouts are all up in my face with their cookies.
"Wanna buy some cookies?"
Fuck no you little pink panty wearing bitch!
I'm a Bad Ass Quitter, you ain't gonna tempt me to cave, with your Sugar Bitch.
Fuck off douche nozzles!!!
I don't know where all these dad's came from all of a sudden, but it's nice to know I can still hightail it in flip flops!

Now that is a Leo event -- I have no doubt it happened (at least in his own head)- given what I see all around Leo's quit, and his interactions here! Outfukinstanding.
April 12 2017--possibly the most hilarious bunch of posts I have seen so far, all day long.
I think all this laughing is so much more therapeutic than the toxic shit that gets going here some times....

Rage is part of the quit for some of us. Just ask some members of October 2016 about me. I was post HOF, but still raging in here.

It is better to bring your rage here, than subject unsuspecting friends and neighbors to it. Take nothing personally, even when it is meant that way. That's the first rule of any internet forum.
I was able to not rage that much--now it's flash/boom/done!! Most of my work is keeping those mini rages away from my family.

I continue to be amazed at what seems to be a persistent /consistent level of low grade hostility in almost all of us here at May17.Good thing? In many aspects definitely ... gotta stay mad at the NicBitch--don't want her sneaking up on you!
What is too bad is the forum does not allow a reader to catch the nuances of what one has posted.. I think we all need to be careful and if someone takes what you post to task... Try your best to explain "what" you were saying. Then again I sometimes like to invoke the FTITCTAJ (starts with- F Them If...)
Why??? because there will always be someone you piss off! Especially those who haven't seen us a lot and don't really get us.
Hell, there are members of May that I don't see enough, and visa versa.
Yes Irish -- a long strange trip it's been--- It continues to be so.....

Weird idea-- what If every one in May17 started to use a Slam Alert system... If you intend to slam some one tell them up front... something like- we be slamin your ass(WBSYA), or Sorry! You are about to be slammed! for our friends in the north country-- the possibilities are endless but they all should make it clear-- a Slam is coming! Might eliminate some ruffled feathers .. might not stop any. Every other thing posted without a slam alert is just for fun and daily group bizness.

I quit with you, Ancient Warrior. Use this thread to write whatever comes to mind, any time you get the urge. Writing is therapeutic.

Late start here on this introduction...

I really do not have a clue as to how this aspect of my quit will progress.
First mistake noted--I said "my quit"-- it is not my quit, It is most definitely OUR quit! We all know this... we sometimes balk at being assisted/helped-- it suggests weakness on our part. Well, the sooner each one of us embraces that weakness and accepts the help that is here at KTC, the better. IMHO (see I am learning Posting lingo).

Here is the personal info section...
born Houston Texas April 29 1948 left Houston area at age 19 and went where ever when ever I felt like it. West coast, Mountain West ......with an occasional stop over back here in Texas. Found a wife , lost her, found another(present wife of 30 yrs).
Went back to college and graduated with BSN Nursing at age 42-- before then construction and oil field 20 yrs.
Adopted some kids (3)- was a foster home for 9.5 years for medical needs children.
We moved back to Tx to our current location for me to complete my degree in Nsg. 26 yrs RN-now retired.

All of my daughters have American Indian heritage- as do I. Small in quantum large in heart. I was raised completely disconnected from our Indian heritage. Taking my kids to powwows got me going--I could feel the songs - they seemed familiar to me --I am wrapped up in Gourd dancing--and I am a member of the Kiowa Tia Piah Society of Carnegie Ok. I was brought into the organization 2 years ago after 14 years attending Gourd Dance.( look it up)
More later-- that brings us up to the present-mostly- sorta.
One thing you will find-- I am prone to yuck it up at times... so be warned.

Later in the day-- a member of our group caved bigger than shit-- weakest excuse ever.. as pathetic as it is to see someone blow off their promise to themselves , their family, and their group, at this point I see nothing gained for us that continue the quit, that warrants anymore energy being devoted to this betrayal. Officially I am done with that.
