I've been away from this site for two years to be exact, if my activity feed on my profile is anything to go by. To be completely honest, I thought I was just done and would never return. I didn't think that out of any ill-will; this site will always hold a special place in my heart. I've really grown up on here as silly as that might sound. I've been here, off and on, for nearly two decades, if I've done my math right. Well, maybe more accurately about fifteen years give or take a year, but "nearly two decades" has a better ring and a more dramatic flair.
I might disappear again, possibly for good next time. I cannot and will not make promises one way or another (it would be silly if I did anyway because I doubt anyone cares that much.) My life is much bigger and busier now than it's ever been, and I think I'm older than a lot of the users here now. I had a feeling in my latest absence that maybe I'd outgrown my old online stomping grounds.
In my absence, I had my daughter. Actually I think I still sporadically used the site after she was born, but not very much. Then, of course, I just gave it up, gradually over time. She's a beautiful, wild, and stubborn two and a half year old. She's almost more than I can handle at times; she definitely keeps me busy. I thank God for her; she is such a blessing.
Anyway, I returned to this site originally just to lurk and to back up some of my works that were exclusive to this site that I didn't want to hypothetically lose if this site ever went down. I may still mostly lurk, but I feel compelled to interact, at least occasionally, once again. Don't call it a comeback. (No, really don't! Haha!)
