Dear Madame Zoltar

Hello, my precious preciouses! How are you?

I have a very important announcement to make. It fills me with great joy and great sadness at the same time. I have won the Romanian Psychic Lottery! 90 million Romanian lei. That is “only” about 30 million US dollars. I am rich, I am rich! Huzzah, huzzah!

That was the good news. Now for the bad news: I have to commit to living in Romania for at least the next five years if I want to claim the prize. Oh my! I have been anguishing and anguishing over this for days, ever since I learned that I’d won. I’ve talked it over with Junior and he is all for moving to Romania. He says the girls are “easy” over there. (Oh dear, I suspect that they will be even easier for a multimillionaire’s son.) After much careful thought and deliberation, I have decided that I cannot pass up this opportunity. What this means for Junior’s future is what is most important to me. Now I will be able to send him to the finest college and his finest future.

What this means for me and Racine is: boo-hoo-hoo! I love my dear, dear Racine and I love my dear, dear Irregulars. The thought of leaving here tears at my heart. Yet, it is what I must do. I am quite sure that I will be very busy for the next few weeks and unable to blog. Once settled in the old country, we shall see what happens. I realize that I could probably blog from Romania, if they have the internet, which Junior assures me that they do. I don’t know that I will have the time to do so, however. There are many more psychics in Romania than here and recently they have become politically active because of a new tax imposed upon them. My family’s roots and history may compel me to join in the fight.

So, I can promise you nothing, my wonderful Irregulars, other than that I love you. Maybe I’ll just post an occasional comment. No matter what, I can still astral project to JTI gatherings, so we won’t lose touch entirely. In an emergency, you can still contact me at madamezoltar@jtirregulars.com.

Thank you so much for reading my blogs over the years. You don’t know what it has meant to me. Please continue to love and respect each other. Remember, I will always be watching over you. Peace, my dear, dear friends. I bid you adieu.

OMG...This comes to a shock...I've always looked forward to reading your blog every Wednesday morning. Happy trails in Romania and I wish you the best of luck!

You know I have not keep up on my geography very well, Is Romania still around? I think the last time I heard of Romania was from the 1976 Olympics.

WTF!

May the gods smile on you in your new venture!

Oh, Madame Zoltar, I hope you will reconsider blogging on our site. It would just not be the same without you.

And, as an aside, please remind Junior about using 'protection.' Those Romanian gals may be more than easy, if you get my drift.

jedwis said...

BeeJay... They may be easy, but they are not cheap.

OKIE said...

Say it ain't so Madame! This is just a pre-April Fools joke.

Why Not? said...

Oh my goodness!! the JTI without our beloved Madame Zoltar.. I do understand your situation, I'm sure I would do the same.. good luck to you and your new adventure. Keep a close eye on Junior, don't want him to end up with any curses for breaking young girls hearts..

You will be missed.

CONGRATULATIONS ON WINNING THE LOTTO:

30 mil.
Tighten up your belt a bit and you and Junior should have a great life.

What a sweet way to get away from the bullshit here in Racine and in Wisconsin.

If you give it a little thought with 30 mil you just might be able to fly a few of us Irregulars to Romania for a summer party and take us around to see the sites, that would be super!

Again Madame Zoltar, congratulations and hoping to here from you soon!

.......SER

Madame before I had joined the JTI I always read your post. I really enjoy reading it too. I will miss you and I hope everything goes real good for you and junior. I wish you the very best of luck in Romania.

kkdither said...

Oh my.... such sadness to the JTI!! Please, if you do find a connection and a few moments, drop us a line or a quick blog. The others are correct... It just won't be the same without the Zoltar touch. I can not express how much I've enjoyed your blogs and your contribution.

I can only echo what everyone else has said. This makes me very sad. I hope you will still check in occasionally at least.
You will be missed..

I never responded with a comment Madame, but I will HONESTLY miss seeing your avatar, and your dedication to these fine folks. I hope you never forget those that love you so.

I spent a few days in Bucharest a few years ago and yes, they have internet connections in Romania. Bucharest is pretty grey, lots of communist era buildings, although the big park on the north side of the city is very nice (Herastrau Park). Be sure to see the funky little art museum attached the the side of parliament building (just tell the nice man with the machine gun you are going to the museum and he will let you pass).

Although I have bad news. It turns out Romania is starting to levy income taxes on witches, astrologers and fortune tellers.

^^^^ Show off!

lizardmom said...

it just won't be the same, I miss you already, travel safe my friend and please keep in touch, you will be very much missed!!!

And keep you eye on Junior that some Romanian gold-digger doesn't get her hooks into him.
