Double post because I can no longer follow the rules: I forgot to say what I'm doing. I'm currently finishing up my PhD in epidemiology - yes, I started before Covid. Yes, it was weird.

Damn that's all amazing M! Congrats on your PhD, that sounds incredible. Also even when I don't really know him I'm kind of proud and happy for Akbar, knowing where he started and seeing where he is now just wow!
Tell Taylor to join us into this nostalgic trip too!

I feel weird posting in this thread specifically because you already know what I'm up to lol
Mostly I'm up to nothing. My son just got a feeding tube and that's been going really well. For the most part we've been quarantined since the start of COVID, so I just try to keep myself occupied. As usual I have a million unfinished personal projects and lately I've been streaming on Twitch for fun. My wife and I are writing our first fiction novel together. I just deep cleaned my house the other day? I dunno, I'm boring.

I feel weird posting in this thread specifically because you already know what I'm up to lol It was obvious reply bait and you took it. You're definitely not boring though, you are underselling how weird you are.

I have a friend who quit life and is currently doing that too, she flew all the way from Scotland and started back in May. Congratulations on your engagement! That's awesome! That's a pretty late start date, she must be crazy fast. I haven't met anyone from Scotland, but I will keep a lookout! And thank you! 😊 Yeah, I got engaged last summer and getting married next fall

OMG HI BETSY of course we both remember you!!!! Derik says hi!!! It's super cool that you're hiking the AT. We don't live too far from where it passes through Massachusetts and into Vermont, maybe we can provide you a little trail magic... And Taylor and Tiller and Scam... I think Taylor just graduated with his law degree, I have him on Facebook. Wis anyone still in touch with the rest of them? Yes, Derik and I met on here in like 2015 when we were 13. He lived in NJ and I lived in NY, and we made it work until he moved in with me. It is wild that this little proboards forum created multiple marriages, that's kind of insane. One time we met up with Akbar in NYC! Did you guys know he's a professional journalist now? He writes for Huffington Post. It's crazy how some people know from childhood exactly what they want to do! First the 667er and now legitimate journalism. Omggg that'd be incredible to meet up with you!! I'll probably be around there in 2 weeks... It's sad to have fallen so out of touch with so many. People I used to talk to literally every day I have no clue what they're up to now. Double post because I can no longer follow the rules: I forgot to say what I'm doing. I'm currently finishing up my PhD in epidemiology - yes, I started before Covid. Yes, it was weird. Oh sweet, that's awesome! This would definitely be an exceptionally interesting time to study epidemiology. Do you know what kind of setting you want to work in after you finish? I'm an ICU travel nurse, mostly trauma and cardiothoracic surgery until everything became covid all the time, so that's what I'll go back to after the trail, I just don't know where yet.

Inconsistent signal in the woods. It sounds like y'all so these meets more frequently these days so I'd love to make it to one in a few months when I'm no longer homeless!

How old is your son Roberto? Missed this somehow! He's 7 now, but if you know a way to shrink him back down I'm all ears.
