Rep-post

Having a steemit celebration is just not the same- without our very own @noname. So everyone on here who agrees, shout out to him in the comments Please!

Aside from his colorful masterpieces,

artedition5

many people know him as:

thisman'shockeydays

or for being a wise-

post

comedian who occasionally likes to rant and say...

post

however

...he also has a very sweet and thoughtful side. On the day marking my first month of steemit I had also hit 100 followers and made my first milestone post. His words in the comment section are enough to make me weepy now that he's MIA
Read Them Here

I re-read that post a minute ago, and in it I say that if I keep getting to know such amazing people, my next milestone post will be a small novella...For those of you who read my steemit journey/multiple milestone post a few weeks ago I can hear you giggling your arses off at my prediction, (@meesterboom)--Unfortunately it wasn't until after the post that I got to know this spectacular Scotsman, or he would've been a big part of the--

BIG POST-Heavily featuring @nonameslefttouse

Incidentally that post was put up on the day that steemit lost its images, and for those of you who know me, you know that is true shit luck since I generally post chapters of a book that only contain One image and I chose THAT day to make a post that completely relied on Many, Many images grrrrr...

Okay, over it now.

But what I'm not yet over is...I bought a High Quality 36 by 42 inch piece of art from @nonameslefttouse called foryerfacious-

HisPostofmyPurchase

-with plans to frame it and hang it in my dining room. I ordered the frame which took forever to arrive, and I was just about to make plans to go to a print shop when he disappeared.

Three Fridays ago he said that after five straight months of posting he was planning to take the weekend off. He was adamant I contact him if there were any problems with the printing, so I figured when he returned from his break, then I would go.

After bantering with him nearly everyday for three months, sometimes for hours since we are both chronic insomniacs, I'd be lying if I said I didn't miss him, or that I wasn't worried.

For those of you who use different forms of social media to get the word out on steemit-y stuff, such as @hilarski and @merej99, consider this a missing steemian alert and do your tweety facebookin' thang.

His name is Damien, he's 36 and from Saskatchewan Canada. He works on a farm where there is at least one llama, (about which he told me one day "That fucking thing hates me" so lets hope he's not lying in a hospital bed after "Vicious Llama Attack)

You can see the evil creature in this post:
dream weaver

If you haven't seen that sublimely creative piece of artistry set to music, I highly recommend it. Make sure you start playing the song and wait until the words begin before you start to scroll down to get the full spectacular experience.

Oh, and I think you can see the creature in this one too:
Did you ever have that dream?

DISCLAIMER

@nonameslefttouse the artist/writer himself is very sensitive about the use of his images. I have been given permission in the past to use most of what I used today, provided I did not alter them and the copyright plus digital signature remained visible. Also it was our agreement that I include multiple links to his posts. And this permission was granted in friendship. I ask that no one take advantage of his sabbatical or choose to see this post as a reason to do so.

Wait...I almost forgot, This Man has an enemy called:

When This Man was taken by That Guy

Let's hope he has not been taken again!

**This post was written as a Happy Birthday to steemit and to honor one of steemit's most artistic, entertaining, and integral content creators. As I stated in the first lines, please let him know what he means to this platform in the comments below! Thank you everyone, and I hope you have a Very Merry steemit Birthday!

***Also I'm not one to generally ask for a resteem, but I would appreciate it with this one, I want to see that comment section filled for him! If in the event this post becomes lucrative, I will share its proceeds with him when he returns. Thanks!!
