In good news, I am going to begin being friends with my crush. I hope we'll be loving each other soon enough.

My mental health is still rather low and I'm not doing great. I'm trying my best. Still waiting for news on an appointment.

Hope y'all are having a great time out there in the world. Stay good. Feel thankful. You are loved.
Thanks. ^_^ I hope it works out. And I'm still inactive due to the same reasons as previously stated.

Still feeling terrible as hell, feeling suicidal and frustrated with life as I type this up. I don’t think I’ll be around a lot. I’m sorry for my lack of dedication to this place lately. My mental health is more important than you lot right now. The past 14 months have not been easy, trying to adjust from my former abusive lifestyle. I’m still trying to get over the fact I joined this forum while being abused. It feels odd.

If you guys need to check up on how I’m doing, ask Jon. I’m in regular contact with him and he’s the only reason I’m really coming online right now, along with just sneaking over conversations. He’ll be able to tell you how I’ve been doing. I just can’t dedicate a lot to this forum right now, I’m sorry.
aaaa

It's okay Heds. *hugs you* Take all the time you need. And I'm sorry about the trauma you went through.

For all you old timers, I'm back for a quick visit. I'm so happy about Al's Star, and hope to be around for the laying of the Star on The Walk! Linda W. aka Squirrelygirl :hamsters:

Ah, the Big Absence Topic!! I previously left the forum under weird circumstances. Long story short, due to the side effects of a new medication I started taking, I felt like I suddenly couldn't write properly anymore. Once that problem started to subside (which unfortunately took much longer than I would have anticipated!), I had gotten out of the habit of posting, and getting out of the habit of posting also got me out of the habit of checking for new posts. The medication made me feel foggy and more distracted than usual... it was not a good time...

Anyway, that's the past! There's certainly nothing like a tour to get the ol' adrenaline going again... wooooo!!!!

Hello fellow close personal friends of Al... I'm back.

Some of you may remember me from the White & Nerdy video discussion thread as one of the lucky few who got a spot in the video.

I came back as a friend in need. Way back then, in that thread I posted some photos on there that I can no longer find on here or elsewhere. They were behind the scenes shots from the W&N video shoot. I was hoping someone here may have saved them and could send me copies. Or maybe the moderators have backups... In particular, the ones I remember are me and short-straight-hair nerdy Al, me and Judy Tenuta, and one from over the camera man's shoulder. This is the post in question: https://www.weirdalforum.com/viewtopic. ... &start=290" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;

I am finally getting around to putting together my White & Nerdy shrine, and would like to include those pics if possible.

Also over the years I have misplaced my White & Nerdy pocket protector from the VIP Lynnwood tour gear. If anybody has one that they are willing to part with, please PM me. I am also keen to get some of the mini Al $100 bills, as well as any other White & Nerdy or Straight Outta Lynnwood rare / tour / promo items to round out my collection. Thanks!

Yo, whaddup my squadfam

OK, I'm just gonna say it- DEAR GOD I WAS AN IDIOT. I keep looking through my pots and I see an idiot kid. I'm going through a lot of them and editing them out. I am so sorry for being an idiot. I already left, but I really just wanted to completely 100% finalize that. Never coming back unless it's to dededelet old posts.
Most of my comments will be edited out. When I was a part of this forum, I was an idiot. I did many stupid things. I'll say it- I was a moron. I hope you guys understand. I PK love you.

Yeah, whenever I think back to when I was younger on WOWAY, I cringe pretty hard.
