He hadn’t mentioned any trips or anything, for that matter. I sent him a text and haven’t heard back. I don’t know what else we can do - I’m pretty sure sending a cop on a welfare check is over-the-top. All we can do is wait…

Urg. I came in here to say I was crabby. Now I’m crabby and concerned about **swampy**.

I just did a search for his name on his local news sites and nothing came up. So he’s not in jail at least… or anything else, for that matter.

I was just thinking about that, **Sticky**. But would it be stalkerish??

Let’s hope it’s a computer failure since \*\*Swampy \*\*has always been good about keeping his posting habits at home.

I don’t think so. I think it just shows that we’re concerned invisible friends.

I think in today’s age an email with the explanation that he’s a valued member of this community and we’re worried about him would be met without issue.

If someone wants to send a PM to me with the info I would happily do it.

He sometimes posts from work at lunch and such.

I’ve drafted a note to his pastor expressing our concern and asking if he can share anything with us. Guess I’ll go ahead and send it.

And it’s sent. He better be in traction after all this trouble he’s caused! 😛  
Just kidding - I don’t want him in traction.

Has anyone tried contacting his FB friends?

Damn, I hope there is nothing wrong, so I can begin kvetching about the gay guys in school getting all the women.

I’ve done enough research to believe I could make some phone calls but at this point I think **Mom’s** email is more than appropriate for our collective **MMP** worrying.

Other than not being here for his usual conversations there has been no indication anything abnormal has occurred.

\*\*flytrap \*\*- wrong church. The one he attends is in a different city. I’d say we’ve just got to wait. If he’s dealing with some kinds of problems, we don’t need to bombard him. Let’s just wait to see what his priest says. And keep happy thoughts.

OK, just heard back from his pastor. \*\*Swampy \*\*is fine. I expect we’ll hear the story when he gets back. So whew!

He will be amused when he sees this, and hopefully pleased.
