This was… 12 years ago. I had a friend I made online. His name was Ryan. He lived in some north part of Texas and we were the best of internet friends when I lived in Germany.  We met on NeoPets. I don’t remember the screen name I used, it was either SassyBeast13 or Deadand_blackflowers His was Goober with some kind of number after it. Tumblr seems like a thing he would use. We talked for a few years, from 2002 till about 2004ish. Sometimes, I think about him, and I hope he’s alright. He was such a large piece of my life when I was a teenager…and he kept me going.

We talked a lot, through IM on AOL. He used Goober with the numbers, and chatted with me on my handle RSkyeB. When Yahoo got hot, we switched over and he started to use Wheeeeeeee there.
