First and foremost, I'm gonna explain real quick
the name. As all (or most) of you know by now, I met Tara on MSN chat...
well, ]\[][G}{T§TÖ®]v[ (NightStorm) is my nickname for IRC chat, and
^^DrAcO^^ would be my bot's name (bot is a long thing to explain in relation to
chat...) and since practically every other e-mail addy was already taken, I just
signed up on this one. {=o)
Okay, I guess I'm supposed to give a
little info on myself. Well, for starters, back home I was a firefighter
for a local volunteer department... dare say I was even in a position of
power... if you could call it that (I think they were the one's controlling
me). I was co-founder of the First Responder Program there, as well as an
avid member in the EMT (Ambulance)... basically, I was pushing
myself towards a nice stay at the Sanitarium. For pay, I drove a
truck for the local Lumberyard, and co-managed the actual yard (when not in the
truck), dealing mostly in sales (VERY glad to be 3000 miles away from that
place). Back home, Creed was practically an unheard of band... Human Clay
was just starting to hit shelves around Christmas, and I had never even seen the
album My Own Prison... and I watched the music stores constantly for "new"
stuff. Tara, of course, had told me about them many times over the phone
before I came here, and promised that she would play them constantly until she
turned me into a fan. It didn't take her long at all, and I even got to go
see them live for the first time at Pine Knob last week (after a last minute
rescheduling from the last show). So, although I won't be jumping in on
every conversation (still learning a lot about the band), I'm sure that y'all
will be seeing me once in a while, whenever I DO have something that I can add
to a conversation. And as ya can all tell, I tend to babble on about
*yawn* boring stuff, so I'm just gonna cut myself off here and pull the plug to
the keyboard. L8Rz
Now that I read back on that, I see that it's way inaccurate.... I won't be
jumping in on every conversation??? Yeah... whatever. The show at Pine
Knob was back in September, so the dates are a bit of a mess. Since I
wrote that, I became a daddy to the youngest list member, Dustin Xander (he
turns 7 months on the 25th, and he really is a list member... he's been
subscribed since he was 36 hours old). And I guess it's wrong now to say I
don't know much about them... having been on the list for 8 months now, one
can't help but pick of the info... plus living with Tara, who's been on the list
for a couple years... well, it's like living with an expert. We recently
lost one of our "lifers", V, to the unsubscribe option, but she was probably the
biggest Creed nut of anyone on the list, having seen them... what was it... like
19 times live, and met them backstage on numerous occasions, and owned at least
one of everything even remotely pertaining to Creed. Okay, the sickness
has gotten to me and I have lost all touch with reality, and as such, can no
longer make any sense, so I'm going to head into the kitchen and get something
to eat and stop typing now
