I've missed this place

Hey guys.

It's actually been a couple years since I've been coming here, or any of the spin-offs, with any regularity.

The thing is, I was becoming consumed by it all, and I just had to get away.

In the meantime, I have found other ways in which to satisfy my obsessive compulsive urges.

However, I wanted to drop in, and see if any of the old faces are still around.

I see some familiar people, and a lot of new people as well.

Also, I figured that since I have all of this in my pocket now, I may as well see what it feels like to fall of the wagon a little bit.  wink

So... Hi.  smile

Re: I've missed this place

You're right arkayn...  I've popped in and out a couple times, but not regularly in a long time.

I've noticed that Alien as been playing with the postcount-a-matic, eh?  hmm

Re: I've missed this place

I'm in the same boat as you. It's been a while since I've posted regularly here, and I'm only doing it now because last Sunday I fell off my bicycle in a parking lot and broke my ankle in three places, making me largely stuck in bed with my laptop. College starts back this coming Monday so I  won't be here long.

I've been lurking there. I even tried posting as a guest once, but the post never got approved. shrug

Damn.
Guess it wasn't time to remove the training wheels yet.

Seriously - hope you recover - that's gotta hurt.

Still married to the crazy wife, but to be fair, she's not exactly alone in the crazy department.

Also, as fair as selling cars is concerned, I must have been doing something right, because I was promoted to sales manager about two years ago. You know the guy that sits behind the desk, and the salesman says something like, "I'm going to have to check with my manager...". That's me now. wink

Re: I've missed this place

I see that not much has changed around here... Including the list of top posters.

What's wrong, you guys haven't trained the n00bs to be neurotic yet?

Re: I've missed this place

Noobs are of a lower quality these days. Poke 'em, prod 'em, and they just go running to mama.
Not to mention many of those posters who would drive people into keyboard bashing fits have disgracefully found their exit.
