I don't know. I've never been on either.

XD

I like the idea of him going out on a bit of soul-searching... or a walkabout... whichever. And props to Janna for being a good friend and giving Jack a place to bum around. :)

Wow, egg bunch! May I have egg four?

I have almost 200 prompts, I need to do huge bunches of eggs if I want to get rid of all of them!

Janna pretty much made Jack move in with her after he came back and he stays there for several more years and not even wanting to walk all over New England will be reason enough for Janna to kick him out.

That is such a young!Isaac prompt. XD Thank you!

Two hundred! Wowzers. I'm coming up with prompts for each piece just before I post them. XD

That's one of the really good prompts. You seem to have a thing for getting ones I love.

I collected 60 pictures of eggs and today or yesterday I realized that there are some pictures with as many as 17 eggs on them and I was too lazy to go look for new pictures, so I counted the eggs on each one, marked them with numbers in some cases when there might have been misunderstandings and then I started working on my monster prompt list and had to realize that I had 198 eggs and needed as many prompts. I think I'm missing 20 or 30 now, so my spreadsheet doesn't look as depressingly sad as it did when I started out, but I really need to give out lots of prompts.

Sometimes, I go through with crazy things for strange reasons. Mostly, I didn't want to study today and collecting prompts sounded much better.

Jack had moved in three weeks ago and hadn’t done much since.

LMAO!!! Oh, now I know a few people like that. I feel kind of sorry for him, and for her. Hope he gets his life figured out soon :)

I think a walkabout would be a good way to figure things out. Hopefully it works :)

Can I have egg #7, please?

It works out for him. He then decides to volunteer at a kindergarden and pretty much stays there for at least a few years.

Walkabout/soul-search/spirit quest sounds like a good idea at this point in his life! He obviously needs to figure out his life and why not do it that way :)

I like that purple #5 right in the front, please :)

I figured it was either soul-searching on a walkabout or he'd end up trapped in the fangs of some strange sect / cult / questionable religious organization and walking is a lot less dangerous than the second option in my eyes.

No, I have no idea what the logic of that statement is, but I loved how strange it was ;)

Is Jack serious? It sounds like as good an idea as any if he is, and he probably needs some time to just recover.

Wow, you really do have a lot of eggs. May I have Blue #2? :P

He needs some time to think and just be alone without having his dad keep calling him telling him he has to be a man and whatnot.

198 to be precise. I'll never get rid of all of them ;)
