    Up In Flames

    So far down the only way for Casey is up. What a lot for a kid to deal with. He was hoping for a few days to figure things out didn't go according to his plan. It makes me so angry when parents use the lame excuse for neglecting their children that they remind them of the other parent. I've heard that so many times from my mother over the years when she's been yelling at me mid-argument "You act/look just like your father!!" Hope things turn around for Casey!
  2. 7 days for those who are counting!!!!
  3. James and Casey make a good pair, they compliment each other very well. Casey is more street-savvy, but James is still a smart kid and has a lot to teach his new friend. Looks like the start of a wonderful friendship. I hope Casey's situation turns around, a missing father and a mother that doesn't want to have anything to do with him is really tough on a kid.

    If It Was Just Me

    What a heartbreaking chapter. It infuriates me when parents treat their kids like this. A father who beats him and disappears and an ill mother who can't face him. The child is paying for the parent's sins. James and his mother are hope in a dark, desperate tunnel. Abuse/neglect with either break you or make you stronger, either way, you're never the same! I know this was hard to write, but it's beautifully done!!

    Ponder in the Dark

    How come, I can wake-up in the middle of the night and walk around the house in the pitch dark like a Ninja… but a few hours earlier when I went to bed, I leaped across the dark room onto the bed like a scared little girl, so the monsters under the bed wouldn’t grab my feet in the darkness??
  6. New Trailer for Walking Dead returning Feb. 8th 2015 just in case anyone is as excited as I am BTW...17 days!!!!
  7. Went out to dinner for my Man's birthday this weekend and gas was $2.09 gallon in Maryland. Made me wish my tank was empty! LOL
  8. LOL- One day my kid was staying with my Mom for the weekend. She still had a land-line phone (with a cord), my kid didn't know how to use it. She asked where the screen was and laughed when Mom told her to press the buttons! Too funny!!!

    Not Done Yet

    Running away before Charlie and Sam get home? Well it looks like Casey is in good hands with James. I agree with Valkyrie that James is an old soul. It will be interesting to see where it goes from here.

    My Bloody Valentine!

    Thanks guys!!! Now I can't wait till February gets here
  12. 22 days!!!!! Fear the Living....Fight the Dead!!!
  13. Bill, that was the first thing I wanted to see the last time I went to Atlanta was where they were filming downtown. We had an awesome cab driver and he took us right to it :D It was so cool. But I don't think they will be using any of our real DC/Alexandria locations for when the group moves north
  14. Oooooooh New Trailer for Walking Dead Walking Dead Trailer Season 5 returns Feb 8th
  15. 24 days until Walking Dead Returns......In case anyone else is counting, LOL
  16. There's no way the group can make it to DC (aka the Alexandria community) without brining Aaron on the show. He's an important character in the comic. I was soooo super-fan-geek when I was reading the comics and the group is heading into DC and they have this Highway Road Sign in the comic, which is about 10 minutes from my house. It's also about 45 miles in the wrong direction ((west of DC)) but it was cool and I did let out a scream when I saw it. Has anyone else read the comics???

    My Bloody Valentine!

    This past October, I had the best time working in a haunted house. It was a big production, professional make-up, costumes, blood and gore with strobe lights and fog. It was only for a month, but it was awesome!! I just got a call asking me to play a crazy killer for “My Bloody Valentine.” The haunted house is going to re-open for 1 weekend in February. Friday the 13th and Saturday the 14th (aka Valentine's Day) Hell yes!!! Everyone tells me I’m crazy for loving this, but it is so much fun. If the haunted house was open all year long, I would quit my day job in a bloody heartbeat.
  18. I lived in Washington DC for a few years without a car and it was liberating, for a while. Still had to buy commuter pass for the Metro and/or Bus plus Marc Train ticket which would add up. Also, trying to get groceries home in the cold-wet-rainy-snowy-dark was a pain in the ass sometimes, but I do miss drunk Saturday night rides on the Metro! LOL Diesel has dropped a little but not as much. Been watching the prices on that too and right now at the gas station up the street is $3.35 gallon of diesel. I have Ford F250 with dual tanks and it can quickly add up. Last time I filled up it was about $125.00 ((which is why it's been sitting in the drive way a lot more than usual ))
  19. Happy Birthday Cassie!!!!!! :D
  20. I got gas for $2.29 gallon this week in Northern Virginia. Not too bad. When we went to the beach over the summer, my kid got excited and pointed out a little old gas station with a sign for $1.09 a gallon. Then we noticed it was board up and probable closed for 20 years! LOL But it was a good catch. Teenagers don't usually notice things like that.

    New In Town

    A great start, Rusty! Casey is a great character. For a young man facing such hard times, like the abuse he endures at home, he comes across very strong. It looks like he has a long road ahead of him. I can't wait to read more.
  22. Good luck, Wayne! Publishing your writing can be very exciting. Let me know if you have any questions along this new journey

    What?

    I'm so sorry to hear of your loss. She sounds like a wonderful person and will be very missed.

    Santa Meltdown

    LOL-- well the kid is talking to me again. I've raised her since she was 7 days old. She's known me her entire life and I'm sure her sense of humor has developed because of it The kid can be quirky in her own right. I'm sure other parents, looking in wouldn't want her as their kid, but I wouldn't trade her for the world! She's told us, she is glad we're her parents.
