So apparently they have free Wi-Fi (for the moment) on the plane. I almost wish I hadn't already put my Cantr account on leave.

The coastline has already disappeared, and now all I can see is ocean…and clouds. Woohoo! I've never seen clouds like this before. (It was either clear or dark when I flew to and from Albuquerque a few years ago.) Like giant, silvery cotton suds (if that makes any sense) at a lower altitude, and like snowy mountains and forests and lakes at 39000 feet.
Only two more hours until we land! Which means about one hour before I lose Wi-Fi due to the satellite positioning or something like that.
Hooray for being out-of-country for first time ever!

My friend is using my shoulder as her pillow. I think she's tired. Lol

-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-

We just flew over the Bahamas. I just experienced two awesome things.
1. I was able to see the ocean floor about a mile off the island. That is such an amazing thing.
2. A mile away from that, I saw the path of some fishing vessel in the water.
I dunno about y'all, but I think that was pretty awesome. :D

It's possible to cancel the on leave status but you just gotta remember to switch it back on afterwards.

I will be away from cantr today. So sorry for everyone I keep waiting with my chars. But I had enough for now and have to be away for today at least or else I might end up unsubbing. It will be hard not to log in to check but I will have to. It's just too much today to also handle cantr. Besides nothing fun happening for a long time. Those that are active is just drama.
There is no rule that says I can't post as much I want. I asked my lawyer.

Ah, Arenti. Sorry things are on a down note for you at this time. I hope they turn around soon (even though I don't even know if I know any of your characters)

At 2am, she starts crying, awaking me out of a sound sleep. Except I never woke up. I apparently ran though the downstairs, though the kitchen/dining room smashing into every piece of furniture along the way. I got halfway up the step to the second floor and collapsed on the landing, which is where I think I woke up. My wife, who was in the bathroom making a bottle, poked her head out and asked me if I was having a stroke. Apparently, I was lying there twitching. Laid there for another minute or two before I made my way incoherently back to the couch.

During this whole time, my wife never factored into the equation. I think I forgot she even existed. I just knew my daughter was crying and I needed to get to her. Quite amusing.


I can't decide if this is hilarious or just really, really d'aaawwww-worthy and sweet. I'm going to have to go with both. :D

Hope the baby's feeling better by now though.

Moved to the city of Montreal, Quebec to find work as there was none to be found in my little town, just to find out, it's almost as hard getting work here. I'm not sure if no one is hiring or just not hiring me...

Every time I read that bit about you twitching, I burst into laughter. I can just see you (well, since I'm not sure what you look like, I just sort of picture a bearded man with glasses) lying on your back, twitching, with unseeing eyes. The best part is how your wife is like "Are you dying? Can you stop dying right now please, I'm busy." and just goes back to what she was doing. >.<,

No beard. I do have glasses, but wouldn't have been wearing them.

As someone who knows what DougR looks like, I can safely say that it's just as funny to picture without a beard. Funnier.

Lets see.. Thursday night the man I am engaged to tells me he is going over to stay at his friends house.. Friday, he is late to the family gathering, then goes over his friends house.. comes home with alcohol then tells me he is going to go stay at his mothers that night so he can visit with the girls. I say alright, but this weekend.. we need to decide if we really want this relationship to work.. don't hear from him the entire weekend.. I sure as hell wasn't gonna call. I text him at about 1030 to see if he is gonna be home.. I get 'yeah' I text him again asking when he would be home because I had something 'planned' for when he got home. I receive 'soon'. I find out at 1145 at night that this break had the opposite effect that I wanted it to.. he loves me.. but doesn't think we should be together.. Oh wait.. it gets better... "I don't want anyone to have to move out, and I love you and the kids but I'm not happy" HELL YOU WERE A FEW DAYS AGO! So in other words.. he doesn't want to give up a damn thing, don't want to work on our relationship of 4 years.. but wants to do what he wants regardless how it may make someone else feel... And this is what I say to that..

You either want to be with me, in which you get lots of benefits.. *eat my food, sleep in my bed, hell live under my roof*

Or

You get the hell out.

Can't have your cake and eat it to.. especially if I am the one left in limbo.

UGH. I completely feel you on that one, only we weren't engaged thank god.
I feel your pain, honey. *hugs* It's more than infuriating. You shouldn't be the one left swinging in the wind 'cause he can't get his shit together. :roll:
