I feel a bit nervous posting personal stuff so forgive me if you can’t quite follow along yea? If you attended the Summit and met me there you’ll get it immediately.

I closed my business on Monday. Ive been waiting for a long form birth certificate to arrive from out of state, for one of my children, for weeks. It got here yesterday afternoon. By 3pm I FINALLY had everything I needed to apply for a passport.

This morning I drove to the only location near me, 40 miles away, that takes walk-ins.
Then I found out the bad news.

As of today, applying for an expedited passport is no longer an option in America. Regular passports are though. I applied for the passport. They’ll take 6-8 weeks to arrive. Good thing my lease isn’t up until.. oh darn. April 21st.

This pandemic, as one of my British friends likes to say, is a big bummer.

If you’re really smart and you’ve been paying attention AND you attended the Summit you’ll be tuning in as two of this forums most lovable members start playing in a beloved classic called Trains, Planes, and Automobiles.

He is considering parachuting into Mexico and then climbing the wall to get to me but I don’t think that’s the best idea..

Friends? If I may call you that, I’m sharing much more of my heart than you know. Sigh. I have never trusted or loved a man this much in my life. I adore him.

I very much want to get to England. He very much wants to get to Texas where I am right now.

This is going to make a great story. I’d love to say you were a part of it. If you have any bright ideas we’d both appreciate it.

I have money to bribe a nice ship captain on the East coast. Do you know any? :)

I'm just gonna be straightforward.

This is absolutely the worst time possible you could be planning to travel.

Not only that, it's quite irresponsible considering how many people you two could end up putting at risk, when the whole world is going through huge lengths to curb the pandemic.

I'm pretty sure you two can wait.

You are thinking James Bond, he's thinking Cadbury's Milk Tray :) (He will explain)

If you ever hear anything even remotely like this, you landed in France not England. :)

Well that is an interesting post to say the least.

Perhaps we can give you a list of British TV Programmes to watch in splendid isolation so you understand him better.

Let’s assume that one party has already had the virus so won’t be putting huge numbers of people at risk. Let’s also assume that travel plans were in place before this virus raised its ugly head so the people involved are trying to find a sensible way to overcome these new obstacles.

Lets also assume you are wrong on the waiting front too.

Last assumption is you missed the part about requesting bright ideas and you have never watched Bambi.

Good luck lovebirds, I have absolutely no ideas on what you could do, but I'll be here to provide moral support!

Have you considered shipping yourself? Here’s a great instructional video:

Pretty sure the video above is complete bullshit, didn’t actually watch it.

I'm very confused. I think I'll just shut up.
