Random Love (anti-rants)
-
As I am (hopefully) taking the rest of the weekend off from the HWDC, I thought that this would be a good time to send some love for the help I have received from the good folks at the IH-Forum.
This forum has only 2 less entrants to the HWDC currently than SuFu (where are you MadMonday?), a much bigger community, this forum has donated more to the HWDC than any other forum BY FAR.
I have received plenty of great support, and messages from so many of my IH brothers and sisters, and it reminds me how lucky we are to have this little piece of cyberspace together. Big love to Seawolf, MikeC, Chris, Brooks, Jeff and so many more for their support of what we are trying to do here.
Over the last few weeks, I have been working 8 - 9 hours in my day job, and then coming home to another 4 hours answering questions and registering competitors for the comp, I have even started getting up an hour earlier (5am) to catch some guys on the time difference, and so I have time to watch TV and play with Tommy in the evening.
Thankfully, once we have April 1st out of the way, the MBB's and the Belts are in the air, and any other projects (hint) are under way, I think I can return to normality (sort of). Thank you all, your support has stopped me from killing people.
I must especially thank General G, who I am sure is thinking of changing his email address and his profession.

Spend some well deserved time off, Gavin. Rest, recharge your batteries and do something fun with your wife and kid. You've done a really impressive job keeping the inmates from taking over the asylum, so I think the HWDC will roll along without you for 48-72 hours without blowing up…
(hopefully
)

My daughter is almost two and is reaching the stage where she can form sentences. She brought a puzzle to me to put together for her, but some of the pieces were missing. I told her she needed to find the lost pieces so we could finish the puzzle. Right now she's wandering through the house calling, "Pieces, where are you?" It's petty damn cute.

That even made my normally cynical, frozen heart melt a little.

Rafa: the WSAYWT was actually a good idea for a thread… Cause in the WAYWT pics, the focus never lays with the shoes, whilst some of you have kickarse footwear... I'm loving all these pics of boots... Rest assured I'll be in boots as well starting tomorrow... Another couple of inches of snow were added today...
I fucking hate snow...
But I do love (my) boots

Sounds like she takes after her dad…
Dear God, I sincerely hope not. It will be so much less frustrating if she takes after her mother. A child like me is unlikely to survive adolescence, and I'm too old to go to prison.

My dad is a Vietnam vet who smoked two packs a day and my mom worked as a pediatric nurse, and they barely made it through raising me. I don't think I'm tough enough for a mini-me.
