Heya Tater, sounds like you’ve got the right attitude goin’ on. Hang tough (you know, like New Kids on the Block said). 😃 Wait, lemme change that to Bob Marley, we can’t be havin’ people know about my New Kids obsession. “Every’ting gonna be al’right.” ---

**tater** , I know we very rarely talk on this MB (much less anywhere else), but you seem like a sweetheart-and-a-half. I’m glad that you appear to be in good spirits and that you’re maintaining an attitude that’s at _least_ as good as can be expected in your situation. ---

You know, I’m taking all of this in an extrememly plucky, Pollyana sort of way. I own and listen to an A\*Teens CD. In fact, I listen to it at least once a day. I believe in the power of positive thinking and believe that a frown is just a smile turned upside down. And I still luuuuvvvvv Hello Kitty. Will that be enough to keep you curmudgeonly til I get back, or will I have to admit things that would make the whole board ill? 😉 I think we are nearing the part where some sort of resolution can be reached, which is a big relief. Right now, I’m having to make some really hard, big, life altering decisions. I think, though, that I’ll be able to stay in closer touch, at least for the next couple of weeks. After that, I’ll probably be traveling to the States, and from there, who knows? Sorry to be so vague, right now everything is vague. ☹ Thank you all again for your support, it really has propped me up these last few days. Tracy ---

I may be taking liberties here, and I certainly don’t want to insult anyone by sticking my nose in, but **obfusciatrist** said: > [@](#): > > Dang, now I really feel like the 5-year-old sitting at the adult table during Thanksgiving.

[This will help](http://boards.straightdope.com/sdmb/showthread.php?threadid=59978). (I must have been absent that day.) Tatertot, I you don’t know me well at all, but I truly hope all goes well for you. Things always work out, maybe not exactly how we had hoped or planned, but keep the faith. You have so many friends and are dearly loved on this board. Just remember to be good to yourself. JoWallaby ---

tater, I hope all is going OK for you- stay strong. E-mail me if there is anything I can do. You are a great person (I still REALLY appreciate the eggs from you and mysterious benefactor, even though I ate them all myself and gained about 10lbs). Take good care of yourself, OK? I’m thinking about you and sending good thoughts your way. Zette [Previous page](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/news-about-tatertot/55585.md?page=1)
