Oooh! Get ready for the restraining order! Been there done that and got the T-shirt! Don’t make her mad, trust me you will regret it. I’m just looking out for you Walker. I don’t want you to go through the hell she has put me through.

I need the prize... :face-with-tears-of-joy:
 
Just arrive at LAX, catching up. Looks like I'm late to the POTM party. Really, the POTM dates have been very confusing lately. I understand there's a bit of delay/backlog, but I seem to remember Mar and Apr POTM having the same deadline. Or maybe it was Feb and Mar. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
 
My apologies y'all my son is getting married in 2 weeks and I had to go buy a pair of pants and a shirt.
Nothing but wally world here so off I went...
 
By the way, for those that didn't see: no Tailspot or Red Scooter for me. At least not today. They were both DOA.
I’ve fallen off a lot of threads I guess.

So sorry Timmy
