Have you ever felt such intense fear of someone who has never interacted with you personally that you feel nearly desparate to safeguard everyone in the world from them?  I do, and I hate it.  It's just one person and I've never before -ever- felt that about another human being.  I seem to consume a lot of energy fearing this man and what he is capable of.  I'm concerned as to why I give him so much credit and so much of my mental energy.   He's nothing to me. 

His child got placed in states custody today and I have never been so thrilled in my life.   I know  that is a horrible life for a child, but I honestly don't see how the system could do more damage to him than his own father.  

He is a horrible, horrible man. 

The Characters:

Of course I am NeoMaxx.  Actually, my name is Max.   I'm just peculiar so ne'r mind me but get to know me and decide for yourself.  I tend to go all out for the shock factor but inside I'm not really like that. 

Destiny.  She is my highschool sweetheart.  We spent 3 years apart after we went to college but we found our way back and are tighter than ever.  The time apart was good. It gave us both the time we needed to realize what we had shared.

Boo.  He's my sidekick.  We are tight. He has (literally) given me the shirt off his back.  Of course, I was drunk and puking and I needed something to blow my nose on but friends don't come much better than Boo.

Bible. Oh God.  Lets just say nerve reaction.

Angel.  Is no angel.  I think she got that name as a joke. Imp.  She is so funny though.  She makes my face hurt from constant laughter.

Lace.  She just moved here.  I like  her, but she is going to grow up or some horrible choices are going to catch her.  Bad.  Err.  I do not want to be anywhere in the vacinity of that aftermath.

Erma.  The sweetest nighbor lady in the world.  If she were 50 years younger, she says she would steal me away from Des. 

I didn't know what to do.  Today is Boo's birthday.  He's 35.  He has a beautiful little boy and he says that is all that he has to live for.  Looking at him you see a tough guy.  Fact is, he scares people who look without looking.  But I have always seen the soft side of him.  He's in pain.  The woman that he loves has been MIA for months.  The authorities were treating it as an abduction case.  I've seen him age drastically in such a short period of time.  Worry clouds his once bright blue, and very happy eyes.  Last week they found her.  She wasn't abducted at all.  She was wondering the streets of Orlando.  She had been raped and tortured. She would only cry.  No one was able to get her to talk.  She'd been using. Again.   He is scared of losing his child.  He is scared of losing his wife.  He feels as if life has left him.  He looks it.  Two days ago, they committed her. Yesterday she escaped in one of the worst, drug infested areas of the city.  Today is his birthday and he looked at me and just cried despite the fact that he is wearing a cute little blue ribbon that announces that he is the birhtday boy.  I'm really not sure what to do.

What is the most romantic/memorable  proposal you have ever thought or heard of? 

I have spent a while paying visits to people I don't know anything about.  I've browsed through categories to find interesting people.  I kind of feel weird though.  I am not sure how to get started building a network.  Responding to strangers feels like I am imposing on a conversation that was started before I joined the crowd and I am waiting for someone to tell me that they are not talking to me. 

I like to read anything except political stuff and things that have a diary feel to them.  Suggestions anyone?
