And I still have admin rights!!

Hey gang, how's it goin'? I'm back! I'm sure you missed me. I could tell by all of the pining and mourning on the site while I was away (did you notice I was gone at all???).

As some of you know, I decided it was time for a sabbatical when it was obvious that a) I had nothing nice to say about anything and b) I just couldn't handle dealing with Swag. Neither of these things seemed logical to me, so I figured some time off and a reboot was in order. I pretty much went off my XBox as well, which I had previously not thought was possible.

So I know you're all dying to know what I have been doing (wait, come back!).

During this time, I have been unemployed. Mostly by the circumstances, but partly by choice. I spent a lot of the summer hanging with my girlfriend and my son in the Laurentians.

I'm wearing a kilt, if any of you notice ...

Unfortunately he left to go back to NJ and school, so I decided to take on the project of restoring my house with vigour (insanity?). It's around a hundred years old and was not really care for at all during the last 40. This project was WAAAYYYY more complex than I had thought. This is a good thing because if I had known, I would never have done it. Pictures are worth a thousand words, so here you go.

The walls were filled with sawdust


Recently I've gotten back to my XBox some and have had several good zombie sessions with Blackwalt and Graybush (even Coxxorz occasionally … under duress). Also, Q-Bert unilaterally decided it was time I got off my keister and got back to work. He found someone he could coerce into giving me a job and then hounded me until I took it. What are friends for …

Imagine my surprise when I discovered I still had my admin rights on the site. This gave me a wonderful idea for dealing with my Swag problem. I would simply strip him of ALL his rights. it should be quiet and peaceful around here again. I decided to fill his content spots with zombie stuff. Mmm, zombies.

Ah, it's good to be back …
