	I've been getting allot of mail asking about fic's I've written, asking if
I'll continue them. The answer is...yes. Unfortunately not for a while.
	I plan on continuing Permanent, The spirit within sequels, A Saiyan tail,
Ecchi, Mech Slayers and a few other stories. Here in lies the problem at hand.
	I just joined the US army, I'm going to be in journalism there. [Woohoo!]
I'll have constant computer access and loads of free time on the weekends
now!!!
	This also means -Boot camp and AIT- Which is going to cover around four
months. Four months that I won't be on the list. Going through hell and
becoming a quote "Real Man.," as if I was a fake one now.
	Starting January 22...next week. So this means you probably won't see any
more of my wonderful stuff for quite a while. Fortunately it means I'll be
back as well, possibly under a different screen name. [I may just use my Juno
account.] 
	I'll miss the list; it's been a real help in my typing and grammar, and
possibly more importantly story telling skills; besides...it's just plain fun.
Honestly though, my thoughts probably won't wander back here much, I'll be
having too much fun playing with my new best friend with three stripes on his
shoulder. [Shudder]
	If I'm really lucky I can spend my time thinking up stories while I'm
marching those long cold miles in Kentucky. Fort Knocks that is, [in case your
wondering that's where I'll have my basic training]. I'll remain on-line
diligently until those final moments when I clutch the key board as they drag
me kicking and screaming to my fate; it was my decision but I've had time to
thing about it and realized it's one of those so called 'Character building'
things in life that really sucks; on the plus side I'll be able to torture my
children with tales about it when I get some of them.
	All in all though it's a good decision and I'm sure I won't regret it until
I'm up to my ass in snow; but I digress... I plan to see the world and enjoy
it thoroughly, especially if I get to go to Japan. [The chances of that are
pretty good, especially considering my job.]
	Who knows, maybe you'll be sitting in a barber shop board off your ass and
you'll pick up some military Magazine and read something by me that isn't a
fanfiction. You probably won't enjoy it, but hey! You can take some comfort in
the fact that you knew the author's other works.
	I't'll probably be by some guy named 'Sean D'anna,' 'Pvt. D'anna' or, if I'm
really fortunate, 'Sgt.' All and all even if I don't make it back here in some
way, [very unlikely] this has been a pretty interesting experience and I thank
you all. 
 Until next time
Ja-ne!
