There are not very many people that do something that really makes me wonder exactly what type of person is hiding behind the other side of the WiFi. @saywha is one of those guys that I became instant friends with here on steemit through steemit.chat. We really seem to get each other on almost every topic, except his dorky love of Star Wars. I don't think any amount of conversation will ever make me understand his love there, lol. Here he is with his light saber.
He surprised me today with a very flat almost skipped piece of mail. I never look for envelopes in the mail, as I pay everything online without opening 99% of the envelopes that enter my house. Boxes are a different story and they are ravished by myself or my wife the second the mailman leaves. I wasn't on the lookout for an envelope and I am glad my wife noticed it as I would have been crushed to find out the gift that was lost, had it been, tossed out with the rest of the unopened mail. Score one for my wife.
@saywha has proven himself on many occasions and continues to be someone here on steemit that I look forward to meeting one day. Anyone who likes my blog and how I am and what I say would love @saywha's blog just as much and you should leave this post right now and check him out before your attention span collapses and you forget.
@saywha started a tag in 2017 that is called #showandtell and this is my Show and Tell post about one of my very first steemit friends. Mail is something I look forward to, I rarely leave my house for any type of adult activity as being a father comes first in every aspect of my life. So much of my outside joy is found online or in my incoming mail. There have been quite a few packages between @saywha and myself but this one is special. It is a gift that has been given three times, once digitally, once as a full post and now in real life. Each time it has brought me more joy than the time before.
My monster has arrived safely and is placed in his new home
Had it not been for the instant connection in chat and the support that I received from the rest of the chat room, I may have left steemit. So to everyone else who is not @saywha, thank you. Steemit has all of you to blame for me.
Hi @erodedthoughts! And possibly @saywha! We've never really interacted but @biasnarrative has told me you guys are pretty cool so I guess you guys are like famous or something ;)
Anyways, I just came across this post and it was so heart-warming. It's nice to see good friendships being built through a community like Steemit. It's like virtual school almost.
Just like when you go to high school and then onto universities, you're meeting people in real life, learning about them, learning things in general. Here, we're basically doing the same thing but only without involving our 5 senses haha. Obviously, could eventually then meet in person too.
BTW, that's a tough looking monster. I need one!
Thanks for all the kind words. I am not sure famous is a word either of us would use for ourselves, yet!
I think, if @saywha and I met in high school, it may have been in detention. We both have an off the wall sense of humor. The thing that really made me see we value the same things are how he shares his family tales. Those are what allow the best bonds.
Star Wars is awesome, you will need to work on that one, but you do have it right on the nose with Saywha - Saywha - mom :)
I do and have watched everyone of the newer ones since my kids have been born, they are growing on me. I just never got the hook, line and sinker of the 1st three as a kid.
You did a great job btw.
I can't agree more with your words Beard Gang! Monster man is the kindest of souls around and like you, he's among the people who have even fought on my behalf. I stayed because he constantly pursued me to stay just like you did :)
I appreciate you both.
We fight for those we enjoy and we both enjoy you. Don't ever leave.
@saywha NERD!!!!!!!!!
You both rock, guys!
Awesome present, @saywha
Best present EVER!
Hahahaha!
