I met John(josephine96) today!!

First and for most John is fine and seemed in good spirits as far as I could tell from the short encounter we had.

Something told me that I needed to pay a visit to the Walmart a short distance from my home. When I got there something told me again when I got in the parking lot that he was on break. Well I went in and entered the produce section and saw a nice woman who seemed to be doing inventory. I asked if John was in the back somewhere, and she said I think he just went on break let me go see. Right then I felt better knowing he was there. She came back and said he just left he will be back in 15 minutes. So I went and picked up a few things I needed and headed back. And there he was next to the woman I met previously. First I asked him if he was indeed Josephine from S2K and he replied yes. I indroduced myself and began to tell him that quite a few of us here where a little worried about him since he has not posted in a month. He says that something to do with his apartment and the computer he has, I guess somthing is not compatable, and that he needs a new computer. He also said that he went to the library and got on line here but was unable to sign it. He said he knew we worried, I guess he was able to read the threads but unable to post since he could not log in. He wanted me to pass along the word that is he okay and just needs to get another computer. He also wanted he to pass along the hug he gave me. So this is from John((((((((((((((HUGS))))))))))))))). And he had great news telling me he was leaving to Miami on Monday for a 5 day vacation!!!! He said he did not know anything about Miami but we both agreed, that who cares, just go and have a good time. He has his hotel booked already and sounded very excited about it. He said he really needs it and thinks it will help with his Post Traumatic Stress Disorder. I agree. I think he will have a blast. I was so excited to met him and glad I went. :D :D And even happier that he was okay and seemed to be very happy about his up coming vacation. :D :D :D

Well, that is such good news to hear! Especially as we go into downtime/maintainance for S2K. I've been worried about him and glad to hear it's just an odd glitch of not being able to post. But he can read what we say!

So, that said - John, I'm so glad you're okay. Enjoy that vacation!

Hopefully you'll be able to post again soon.....

Kelly - that was so nice of you to personally check on John.

I am soo glad he is okay! I was not going to stop worrying until I knew for sure he was okay. I knew it was probably something simple like computer problems, but just wanted to make sure. He seems like a nice guy. And it is nice to know that even though most of us never met in person, we still care about each other. Just like a real family! I hope John has fun in Miami! I would do anything to be in his shoes right now. I would go to Miami in a heartbeat if I could afford it right now. John really deserves this vacatation.
