I'm Actually Going To Cry

[TyphoonThaReapa]

The most amazing thing happened to me today. For five years, I've been searching and I finally found them. You see, I had two friends from New Orleans that I never found after Hurricane Katrina. I searched and I searched but I never found them. I had nightmares about them, I developed attactment issues, and that part of my life never ended. But now I can finally close this chapter of my life and move on. I can finally live on without my mind revisiting the crazy that happened when Hurricane Katrina hit my home town. I feel so relieved! Finally!

Have you guys ever felt like this before? I actually feel like I got apart of my spirit and my soul back! This is unbelievable! I've been waiting so long for this moment!

Good for you. At least they're safe and sound.

As for your question, I'm currently in a similar situation. Maybe one day I'll be able to tell you what that feeling is like for me.

If they're so important to you, why didn't they send you a smurfing email at some point in the past 5 years? (I'm assuming you tried to contact them at some point.)

[Shlup]

Why did it take you so long to find them?? Doesn't everyone have a Facebook?

[Old Manus]

I remember when my house blew away in a hurricane. I thought about rebuilding my life, but checking my emails was too important.

That is very good news to hear. Miracles happen every once in a while.

This....But in all seriousness I'm glad things panned out for the better...Wow its been five years since Katrina....

[TyphoonThaReapa]

Lol, I did search for them on the internet, but I didn't know their last names and before katrina we never exchanged emails and numbers because we wasn't thinking of doing so. I assume, they didn't know my last name either because, if so, they would have found me a long time ago. I even went back to New Orleans to search for them, but didn't find them. But now, that's all old news thank goodness lol.

[Roto13]

I know the last names of everyone I give a about. :P

[TyphoonThaReapa]

Lol, shut the smurf up Roto!

[Shlup]

Seriously, how do you call anyone a "friend" if you don't know their last name?? I'm having trouble thinking of anyone I know who I don't know their last name. xD

I love you, Reapa.

[Madame Adequate]

You're all meanies! I'm glad you found your friends and that they're safe :kaolove:

What about being friends with Seal?

Losing track of people you actually give a pork about is pretty odd. I know somebody from Iowa who was always deeply depressed and spoke about suicide. Anyway the only link I have to him is his dA (lol) page which has not been active in many years, and ended with many blag posts about how life sucks and etc etc

Note I never called him a friend. I actually kept encouraging him to commit suicide and told him many ways he could get it done pain free.

I'm just saying.

That doesn't sound too helpful you should be trying to help people rather than egg them on seems malevolent.
