Hey, everyone.
It's Jack, here.
Now, you're probably confused as all hell. (Well, at least the people who even REMEMBER me are confused.)
Last July, I "died" as a result of the huge car accident I was in in mid-April (or, was it mid-April? I don't remember.)
It's time to come clean.
I faked my death, both online and IRL, and the only ones who knew I was alive were my wife (duh! I live with her!), and the government. The reason I did this is because we were quickly descending into a money crisis. Katie had to leave work because of our twins (I'll get to that in a bit), and I was laid off of my job. The government went all asshole on me and cut off any kind of pensions and monthly cheques I was getting, so it put Katie and I in a huge bind. Nobody would help us out except my best friend Holly (but, there's only so much money she can give us), so I had to cut myself off from everyone except my wife. I did the whole death thing quickly, and also dropped out of University. I knew it was time to get my ass in gear and get money to provide for my family.
And that I did. I managed to get us a stable stream of money (no, I won't say how, but it's not illegal by any means), and one of the goverment pension cheques back to us, along with some other minor stuff.
These last few months have been pure insanity, and I feel very lucky to not have just broken down and killed myself, or just left ot start a new life somewhere else. 'course, I would never do that. Katie and my new daughters are too important to me, and I won't ever leave them. Ever.
When my twin daughters were born, I knew time was running out, and it was only a matter of time before I'd have to show myself once more after. And here I am. 10 months later.
Now, here's the heartfelt part...
(This was sent to all my friends and family who thought I was dead, and I thought I'd post it here for any of my online friends who remember me)
I cannot, by any means, BEGIN to say how sorry I am for any and all pain caused. What I did, how I made all of you feel, was so horrible of me, it tore me apart during the time I was gone, and I still feel the regret lingering in the pit of my stomach as I write this. I drove many of my friends and family to depression and damn-near suicide, and it kills me to know that. All I can say is that I'm sorry, and I will completely understand if any of you hate me for this.
I won't be returning to FiM Fiction, because my creative drive was vaporized ten months ago. If any of you don't hate me, or if you remember me, let me know if you want to talk. I'll sign onto Skype.

i think the person you need to apologize the most to friend is Carl here, i can imagine the predicament you must have been in and cant say i blame ya for what ya did but it doesnt mean some of us cant be sore for you lying im just saying but, yeah well its good to see you back, but carl i dont now how hes gonna take this mate
1090935No, man, I DESERVE everyone's anger. It was wrong of me and I regret it, but I did what I had to.
As for Carl, if he wants to talk to me, I'll be around. If not, I completely understand. I've been met with well-deserved anger from a good chunk of my IRL friends, as well.
1091484 tbh that will have been expected

I'm not angry, Jack.
I just wish to talk to you again.
OMG IM SO HAPPY. im so glad your okay. i know we never met but it pained me alot. I wrote a blog for you months ago if you feel like digging it up. Im so glad your okay. I was so broken by that whole thing and it only got worse when i thought about the girls... im so glad your okay Jack... if I may call you that
1091785I'll be on Skype shortly.
1091970I just saw that. I really appreciate that, you know. Thank you.
1092110 your welcome. I only knew you from Flash but all of the blogs for you and your blog for the twins (bless them both) put those with your profile picture... I cried maybe six times over this situation. I felt like I knew you for the greater portion of my life like you were an uncle or something. It all.... it was alot for me. Im so glad your okay friend *hug*
