Thank you, I do agree its unfortunate in a lot of ways. I wish this wasn't the
thing I had to deal with in my life, its been a very hard and lonely road to
walk at times. Things are getting very good now, however. I think I am happier
and more content in my personal life than I ever could have been.
And thank you for the kind words, I always felt that only a handful of people
even knew who I was back then... mostly .space people... and when they stopped
talking to me I just felt nothing was left for me to hold on to here. Only Tim
Courtney and Todd Lehman were nice to me and it was appreciated... but I didn't
really talk to them enough to consititute a proper social group I guess.
anyways. I will be back. I can feel it. I just need to start buying Lego
again because I have almost nothing right now and I can't build anything with
it. With both Vanessa and I buying sets I imagine it will happen quicker than
not. I am tempted to go buy a Star Destroyer today :)

Hey Molly!
Good to see you posting again. I was going to write back to your original post,
but here looks like a better place to hang my response.
Just wanted to write and say I'm glad you're re-surfacing a bit, and glad you
were able to make it out to NWBC. I'm in a very dim ages, but I do keep tabs on
what is going on around the place and maintain contact with a few friends.
Though we haven't talked in a while, I'll always count you among mine. I hope
you get back into building because you're AMAZING at it and I love seeing what
you create.
-Tim
PS - I've made good use of your foliage in NILTC layouts, etc...

I remember you and Ondrew coming over to my place and helping me move when I was
preparing to move to Seattle, and I think I remember both of you stating with
some conviction that I would be back eventually.
Lego fans don't die, they just rest once in a while...

thank you :) I'll be around, how can I resist the black-hole-like pull of The Brick? What have you been doing for the last few years if you aren't building BTW?

That's awesome! It does make me feel to good to know that all my Lego is out
there somewhere... hopefully being used in all sorts of MOCs. Hell, a lot of
people must have parts from The BenGrace in their own ships... something to
think about anyways.
Is the NILTC still together? I couldn't find anything on lugnet about them.
cheers!

Well, since finishing school in 05 I've been spending the time being the
entrepreneur I am and getting my life established. Way too much activity, ups
and downs, etc to talk about here, and probably more than you'd ever want to
hear about. Now things are looking very up, though, and I'm taking a bit of
transition time to--for lack of a better description--build out the foundation
of my life before taking the next entrepreneurial plunge, whatever that ends up
being :-)
Oh, and I'm doing a lot of bike riding, movie watching, and a moderate amount of
furniture refinishing and interior decorating, too.

I'm not exactly sure. I left the club in early 2004, actually, and kept in close
touch for about a year visting shows, etc, but since then have lost touch with
most of the folks. Ondrew isn't a member anymore either, and aside from us the
rest of the club never was all that much into posting on LUGNET, so I dunno...
