No, I'm not going anywhere. That's what I just finished doing. I still posted here during the time I was eschewing most things online-related, not sure why. Maybe I just needed at least one outlet. :)

Still, I was at a point in my life where I just HAD no life. Yet I was conversing with people far away. So about a month ago I shut off my instand messanger program and stopped going to livejournal and myspace and all those things. I just needed to get away for a bit and have a life.

Now I have a job, and the other day I spent most of the day hanging out at a friend's house and all seems to be back into the natural order of things.

Not sure why I'm announcing it here, since it didn't really affect anything going on here... but I just feel the need to get it off my chest. I was in a weird place, and I think this place helped keep me balanced.

Oh, BTW, TheAnimator... I finally found someone who can actually offer me a challenge at Soul Calibur. And if that isn't a major blow to your ego... I'll also add that not only is she older than you, but she's also a girl. A girl who kicked my ass half the time we played. :P I do believe it's my first time I've ever been evenly matched with one of those games.
