 HL> Well, Tim, sounds like you've already thought about getting a new 
sponsor.
 HL> So..go out and DO it.  You can talk about it for years, without anything
 HL> happening...
 TD> Ah, the latest news, I looked once again at my situation and grabbed
 TD> Joe K. (no not the Joe I typed about not knowing the big book)
 TD> and have been using him as a temp sponsor for months. I will
 TD> make the arrangement formal as soon as I see him next. I saw

 TD> back to school at 47! He also has 21 years and a Harley..
 TD> I want what he's got ;-)
Especially the Harley?
 
 HL> Maybe it's time for you to move on.  Find different meetings...Tim,
 HL> you're in Southern California...not the middle of nowhere.
 TD> Ah by the time you see this you will have seen over in Higher_power
 TD> that Thom R. and I are hooking up at the Radison Group in North
 TD> Hollywood will start doing that on fridays.. will also start more
 TD> regularly attending the Saturday morning beach meeting In Hermosa,
 TD> there I  have got a choice between the 2nd st. NA serenity Grp and the
 TD> 22nd St. AA "As Bill See's it" Grp, I'll alternate the grps I do 
 TD> on Saturdays as both of these occur at 10:00am.
Cool.
 TD> I'll bring my shorts ;-)
 
You do that.
 TD> No it does not, but busy does not equate meaningful if you take my
 TD> meaning. I was there during the realtionship, was there for school,
 TD> but underlining all this was a loss of connectedness I had felt on and
 TD> off the past year. I hope that little trip will sort things out...
It's really about being connected to yourself...then the mundane becomes
meaningful.
 TD> As I said privately it's too closely interwoven with my connection
 TD> with my H-P, of which I am exploring the concept as we speak...
 TD> to make it fuller and richer than before. Not the concept
 TD> "creative inteligence underining the universe" I have used
 TD> the past 5 years. Intelligence does not equate love. I find
 TD> that the path we had typed about private more fulfilling than
 TD> the ones I have tried and rejected in the past.
 
Check it out more thoroughly, then.
 HL>  (BTW, if you can manage to be here on a Wednesday, 
 HL>  I can take you to a really good meeting.)
 TD> Ahh your "Home group" hmm I may be able to pull that off and make it
 TD> a longer  weekend by taking a leave of absense but then again Fall
 TD> semester starts in August and I can't afford to miss school....
Understood.
 TD> The agenda here is a follows fly out on Friday approx noon my time
 TD> arrive there approx 6pm your time (Maybe I can cut class and make it 
 TD> Thursday) and leave there on Monday noon and be here by 4:00pm
 TD> so I can go to work that evening at 10:30 pm more details as I 
 TD> price out airlines and get tickets, will do JFK tho...not Newark
 TD> or Laguardia (most definitely spelled wrong)
 
LaGuardia is easier for me to get to....with no traffic it's about 15
minutes.
