Five year catchup

**irontime** · 03-16-2010, 08:02 PM

How to start? Well most of you probably don't know me so this will be extremely boring for you and I wouldn't bother reading it, the rest of you that do know me will probably not be interested, but there might be one or two that are bored enough to go through this (I'll try to keep it short). Keep in mind I'm not exactly proud of what I did, some of it is kind of embarrasing, but it's what happened.

When I dissapeared you'll remember that I was engaged and the wedding date was coming up, what you didn't hear about was that I was getting completely miserable. I drank everyday, hardly hit the gym at all, sex was every two months and I was constantly dreading coming home just incase the bitch was there. As a result I found myself being constantly on the internet, my other world where I could escape.

On another site (a site for the goth metal band, 'Type O Negative') I was very involved. There was a bunch of people that had the same attitude as I did and I poured out all my problems there. I ended up stopping posting here and spent all my time over there. During this period where I stopped posting here I actually tried really hard to salvage my relationship but it wasn't working. Finally on our three year anniversary I called it off.

I shared all of this on the other site and actually made a connection with this chick from the States who opened up to me. We even exchanged phone numbers and talked for hours. I found my life was completely involved with the internet, I called in for work to stay on it, I spent entire weekends on it, I brushed off friends to be on it. I was completely engrossed with this world I had made online, and I was starting to take it way too seriously. I even had plans to go and see this chick. Then it came out that she was doing this to other guys and even had online videos (which other guys posted) and she wasn't even close to the goth beauty that she said she was to me....she even sent me pictures of other 'good looking' girls instead of what she actually was, which more closely resembled a beached whale.

After this all came out I actually laughed my ass off. Then I went out of the computer room and looked around my home. I couldn't fucking believe it. There was garbage and empty booze bottles everywhere, when was the last time I cleaned up? Then I looked in the mirror, my chest was starting to sag, there was rolls happening at my stomach, when was the last time I worked out? It hit me at that point that I made an internet world to escape from reality, it was my new world and if I kept it up I'd turn into the 'beached whale' who never left the house. I couldn't let myself turn into that. So I made a phone call the next day and had the internet cut off immediately.

After that I started building myself back together. I moved in with a couple of friends and hit the gym hard again. I stayed at the lumber mill for a bit then tried out for police....which really sucked as you have to admit to everything as you're on a lie detector (and those of you that remember my college days, there was quite a bit to admit to).
I was given a two year deferral to see if I could stay on the right track. That was about two years ago, since then I got my own apartment, started bouncing again (part time) and got into oilfield firefighting and have seen and done some amazing things. I still have my heart set on being in the police force and I'm getting ready to try again, but life has been good.
Here's some pics of me and some of my job. Hope it was short/informative enough

That's pretty much the outline of the last few years, throw in any questions you want, but more importantly, what have you been up too? Want to catch up here as much as I can

**maniclion** · 03-17-2010, 06:13 AM

Well glad you turned it all around, I bet your'e still a booze hound though, aren't you c'mon admit it....

**Dale Mabry** · 03-17-2010, 06:49 AM

I notice how you conveniently left out the short time you spent as a gay prostitute.

lol, not completely. I go out about once a month and pretty much don't drink when I'm on my work schedule (I'm on call 24 hours for 2-3 weeks at a time)

What can I say? The economy was bad and you have to give head to get ahead.

**ALBOB** · 03-17-2010, 09:10 AM

Damn, now I feel bad for making that crack about the little missus. Well, sort of.

Holy SHIT, you really did hit the gym. Even at your best a few years ago you were right at 200, right? What the Hell are you tipping the scales at now, 250? 260? You look freakin' HUGE. (But you're still not too big for your old Pops to kick your ass.

)

**I Are Baboon** · 03-17-2010, 10:25 AM

Hey man! Nice to see you again. Glad to hear you're getting yourself back on track!

**ceazur** · 03-17-2010, 06:51 PM

Props man, keep up the good work ,and always think about your future and your goals. Good luck with life, its a bitch

lol, the comments don't bug me at all bud. I can look back at it all and be glad for the good moments and even more glad that I ran when I did. She's apparently a REALLY moody miserable bitch now. That was a close one.

And ya I gained some size. The good thing about letting myself go for a bit was that when I did hit the gym again my strength and muscle size went way up. I'm around the 245 mark now. And I know you will always kick my ass, but I'll still beat you in a beer chugging contest. All you've got is that pussy American beer

Where did your mother and I go wrong? Tequila or whiskey, the GOOD stuff, not that rot gut you serve to the pesents.

Uh huh, I've seen how much you guys water down your beer. What damage do you do to your whiskey? It's probably like drinking flavored water

**ZECH** · 03-18-2010, 08:45 AM

Damn dude. Glad everything has worked out! You do look huge though!

**irontime** · 03-18-2010, 08:49 AM

Thanks dg, good to see you again bud.

**tucker01** · 03-18-2010, 09:16 AM

Welcome Back!

Crown Royal Special Reserve......................in a glass. If ice or water even come near it there's gonna be a fight.

Or Sauza Tres Generaciones, same requirements.

The Fashion Police.

**ALBOB** · 03-18-2010, 11:01 AM

DALE MABRY?!?!? Holy shit, all the old timers are suddenly coming out of the woodwork.

What's that? You never left?

Damn, that's right. I just WISH you had disappeared.

Hey ID! I'm looking at the RCMP and Edmonton City police. I did the written tests for both (I did the RCMP one first and didn't need to do the Edmonton one, but I thought it would look good to show my confidence in the tests)
Right now my biggest hold up is my shin splints. If I can't get rid of these damn things while running cross country I'm fucked.

but you guys still water it down to around 20% right? There's no way you could handle the stuff we drink

I.T....welcome back.

Albob's senility caused him to key in a typo. he didn't mean Crown Royal Special Reserve, he was thinking about the special reserve of Royal Crown Cola they keep in the fridge at Shady Grove Nursing Home......they let him have some when he doesn't act out during craft time.

Ah cool

Get your RCMP app in ASAP, they take forever to process.

Edmonton looks like a good service. Doesn't look like they have a new class till the fall, they are big on physical fitness.

Good Luck

Keep it up asshole. One of these days I'm gonna replace that Geritol I.V. of yours with Exlax.

Sadly, after eating nothing but protein for the past few weeks....that doesn't sound like such a bad idea.

**Prince** · 03-18-2010, 01:29 PM

wow, what a story, glad to see everything is better now and that you came back here.

**ectomorph141** · 03-18-2010, 02:16 PM

Yeah no kidding. Great story. I have been gone for 7 years and havent lifted for 7 years. I just now started lifting again at home a couple weeks ago.

**irontime** · 03-20-2010, 04:16 PM
