*steps up to the mic*
a big *HUGGLOMP* to everyone.
*extra hug for Asis*
Things are going well for me.
In June I will have been at the same computer techie job for 2 years. In this economy I'm very grateful to have a good job with good bosses.
STILL working on "She Thinks" (now titled "Voices and Trees"). This month equals 3 years total work on it, but, yes, it's actually almost finished. I'll be entering it in a contest by the end of this month (and going to the related writer's conference in May to find out who won). I will also be trying to acquire an agent, as I think that's the only way for a nobody to get their foot in the door these days. When I'm done with this book, I'll take a break and write some shorts, then start on the next book (which is actually already started). One day, God willing, I might be able to turn this writing stuff into a career.
Life with gf is incredible/wonderful/gooey. We're at the 2 1/2 year mark and things are grand. I'm a lucky woman.
Flag football: The majority of my team left late last year over some stupid tiff at a tournament. So, this year was one of rebuilding and we finished in 3rd place (lost in semi-finals by one freaking point). We have a tournament coming up at the end of March and we're looking to do well. I received a sportsmanship award at the annual league party, which was a real honor.
My family is doing well and my health is good. So, I'm happy and feeling blessed.

Work: changed jobs last may, I'm now working at the Free University's peronel department's archive. Which I sort of enjoy and which leaves me with a bit of month at the end of my money. Every month.
Personal: Not much spectacular. Still single, but with possibilities. For a day to day play list you can check my live journal. RL is picking up though and I'm still a happy camper. And still reading SiP.

Howdy folks,
I haven't posted anything for longer than ages, and was a little perturbed to find my username seems to have gone the way of the fairies. That said, Hostboard seems to have changed almost beyond recognition, so this maybe isn't suprising.
Um, I've recently jacked in my awful insurance job (with no internet access), and am now spending all the money I've ever owned on a life-affirming trip around Europe. I write this from a coffee shop in Amsterdam, which makes a nice change at 3pm from staring at my desk and reading about traffic accidents.
I've missed the board, as I don't get much of an opportunity to visit nowadays, and am very confused by the new names, and changed names, and the like. How the devil are you all, then? Any Earth-shattering online events I should know about?

*waves* welcome back! I must admit I only vaguely remember you myself, (you are the one that posted that lovely SiP timeline, aren't you?) but it's always good to hear from a straggler who stumbles back in. Oh, and the next time you take a life affirming trip around Europe, take me! OK, so you don't know me, and I just admitted that I barely remember you, but that's besides the point!

I'm still up to no good, in case you were wondering.
Life's been good at times, bad at times, but I'm still kicking as much ass as possible.
I switched stations (back at Ft Hood now) and still going to Iraq... wasn't I supposed to leave like, 8 weeks ago? stupid war planners...
my eyesight in my right eye is going bad.
my knee is still screwed.
and ever since they fixed my car, I get paranoid whenever I hear a noise, because I think something fell off.

So many returning faces...this is such a good thing...keep it coming everyone...
David A! How the hell are you! Eris might not remember you too well, but I do! HA!

No, that's your car, bird...

Down! Down!
Sheesh!
Hi David, I remember you well. Both here and at SIP.
Where to start. I had my last chemo treatment Febuary 2 2002. About a month later I took my mother and her new husband on a trip to Ireland. I stayed on for another month bumming around Europe in my wheelchair or "speedy" as I call her. After returning went through six months of PT to get the use of my legs back (again). Returned to work( My first day back ) to much Hurrrahs and Hey Nelly, Nellys.
During this time I had discovered online gaming and settled on a game called Asheron's Call as my "game" home.
4 Months ago I became involved with Maria, my neighbor, who had just moved in.
I am still doing web work as well as running a server for several friends.

OK, guys, time to get the global STP database running... what do we know about this woman? Asis, your on credit rating report. I'll hack the IRS files. Bran, you're on double duty... first situate yourself in Seattle, and "interview" any prior boyfriends you can get your hands on. You can take that literally if they won't talk. Second, you're on standby until we determine whether or not we'll let this woman date our Vox.
We've got our jobs, let's get to work...
