Reeka 08-31-2001 10:57 AM

I finally decided to make a post about this and if it is hubris on my part I apologize. As I think many of you know, I work at a university. The semester has started back and beginning Monday work will start becoming hell on earth. Long days and lots of hours. I do more work from September to mid-December than I do all the remainder of the year. I won't go into all the whys and wherefores of why this is--it simply is. So, I won't be able to do as much posting as I usually do. I am a mod on a very tiny forum and have to check in there at least once a day and that takes time, too. And time is what I will have in short supply.

Those of you I chat with regularly on MSN, I won't be on chat much either. This is just my cyclical schedule with work and from Christmas on I should be back full-steam. I WILL be around and checking in, even if I don't have time to post. If anyone wants to get in touch with me, since I won't be on-line as much, please e-mail me (Reeka@tgeweb.com). I can always check e-mail when I have time and I do respond usually right away.

I love you guys, you are really like family to me. Some of my dearest and closest friends I have found through Ironworks.

Just wanted to let you guys know what was going on with me. Didn't want you guys to think that I didn't love you anymore. Don't forget me please while I am scarce.

*Hugs to everybody*

Ok, while I understand exactly what you're saying, I still want to go on record as saying that I object to this whole situation. I finally get myself back on the boards and chatting, and now my little sis is going to be next to impossible to find? I must admit that it totally sucks. Ok, venting over.

You know that I'll be there for ya when you do have time to talk. Good luck with getting your work done and managing everything else that you have going on. http://www.ironworksforum.com/ubb/no...es/biggrin.gif

BTW, Reeka, I know how the season is, I work at a University too. BUSY as all get out this time of year! http://www.ironworksforum.com/ubb/no...es/biggrin.gif Good luck, I also know how little things can sap time- my mod duties at MH and multiplay games keep me busier than I expected.

well, thats too bad that. just dont let the work get too much for you to handle, and make sure to take a breather every once in awhile, kay? ill try to keep in touch with you, so i guess see ya later! or sooner, or whatever...

------------------
It's simple. Once the Planet is hurt, it gathers Spirit Energy to heal the injury. The amount of energy gathered depends on the size of the injury...What would happen if there was an injury that threatened the very life of the Planet? Think how much energy would be gathered! Ha, ha, ha. And at the center of that injury, wil be me. All that boundless energy will be mine. By merging with the energy of the Planet, I will be come a new life form, a new existence. Melding with the Planet, I will cease to exist as I am now. Only to be reborn as a 'God' to rule over every living soul.
