I'll just be the one to personally say, thank you all for your kind words. You know, it actually amazes me that the community can be supportive of each other and during their darkest times. That's the type of thing I can really expect out of the Smash community. We stick together, play together, talk to one another, and support each other. I can see why he's kind of got a life with the rest of you for so long. I may be nearly a year old bloomer around here, but this sheila is personally glad to be a part of such a supportive community. I will definitely at least keep in touch or even visit him more often while he's down just like I've did during the time his family divorced earlier this year.
Now off to get some shut eye for the night and probably prepare myself for my first set of matches with an old friend (one that several of you may personally know from the Bandanna Dee boards or even here). I just hope this deep concern I'm having now won't get in the way of my skill for these matches.
