Darlin? Are you sure your not Ranger yourself playng at being female?
LOL....
Ranger and I were once very good friends, but that was a lifetime ago. And yes, I do in my real life refer to people (as well as in writing) as Sugarplumb and Darlin' and use the expression, "What's up Buttercup?" because he was once in my life and I like to use these expressions as a rememberance of how he affected my life in a positive fashion. Not everything that was connected to my knowing him was positive, but that is neither here nor there. I choose to remember good things.
One of THE MOST IMPORTANT BITS OF KNOWLEDGE that he imparted to me (that I have since imparted to others) was, "Darlin'
NO ONE can ever undo the good that you have done to your children." I know it seems silly, but just to hear those words from him calmed me. I was in tears, very unsure and fearful about my role in the lives of my children. I was (whether I liked it or not) in the process of becoming a single parent. His words brought me tremendous comfort. I know that seems silly, but ever since then when I become fearful that my children will be led astray I can still hear his voice in my head uttering those words. Anyone that has ever heard his voice will tell you IT BOOMS!
Gosh so much has changed since then, both for me and him personally and for elite. When I think about how I came to find elite and everything that happened as a result of my finding this site...
I can see the book title now
"Dancing For Cash".
I still may write it someday.
By the way, last I heard you had a personal situation with a girl. How did that work out? Hope it all went well.
