Ted & Lisa's Excellent Adventure (The Jake Visit Report)
ednbarby:
I friended it, came back later, and have read it all.
I must say, I feel so vindicated, sitting here in a Target T-shirt, Target pajama pants, Target bra, and Target underwear (Hanes, actually, but I bought them at Target).
And I still think of Heath, and my Mom, in the present tense, too.
Toycoon:
I just read this interview and I must say, it is fantastic! I am so jealous; I wish I could have been there, too. Did you videotape it?
Kelda:
Well Lisa - i think your pinkish shirt from target looks great
and thank you for asking that question - its nice to know Jake was there.
Great write up of your adventure!

Livejournal may be a confusing experience for people more accustomed to the forum-style of interactive communication. There are a few minor processes you need to follow in order to access this content, so I decided to quickly put together a list of steps to take to read the content.
1) You need to register at www.livejournal.com and open a new account. It's a generally straightforward process. If you are going to register just to read this content, then stick with the basic info requested and follow any verification procedures (usually an e-mail with a link to click to activate an account).
2) Come back here and click http://dontwanttosaygb.livejournal.com/10050.html which will take you back to the article. To protect their privacy and the integrity of their article, they have chosen to restrict its access to people who are on their "friends list." That means you need to request to be added to that list, and they need to approve it, to unlock the content and make it visible to you.
3) To request a friend list addition, I clicked: http://dontwanttosaygb.livejournal.com/ and then, while logged into LiveJournal, at the top left of the page, I found a link to add them as a friend. I clicked that link and made the request.
4) You still won't be able to read the content until they accept your friend request, but they indicate they are checking and approving those requests regularly, so it should not take too long. You can then check back later in the day or the following morning and see if you can now read the article.
They have requested that people not cut and paste their work on other sites, so we should respect that and follow the proper procedure to gain access to the content. It won't take more than a few minutes, and from the sounds of it, will be well worth it.
I hope this helps folks.

It was worth the wait of signing up and then being added to the friends list to read the journal. Thankyou so much for taking the time and trouble to post it. The details were so vivid, I felt I was there with you, I wish !!!!
It has also restored my faith in Jake, which was wavering slightly. He is obviously just grieving in his own way.I too still think of Heath in the present tense.It is my way of coping.
So a big massive thanks again.
