It's great to see you all!
The break has been good for me, to be sure, and I don't think that I'll be really active here--it's really nice to have my default stress-behavior be "go sit by the crick" rather than "go hop on the net" (though I do kinda want to play a mafia game or two this summer in-between my studying plans and stuff... I'm trying to get back to violin practice and kendoing, and my mother has threatened a great deal of housewife bootcamp). Finals weren't terrible. I'm not holding my breath on them, but they weren't too bad.
Stuff's looking up everywhere, and I wouldn't worry about your Progressive thread being closed. Politics is getting a bit dead around here.
Oh, that makes sense. I'm getting a bit worn out by politics, myself... I still keep my ear to the ground, but at this point I'm kind of running out of rage and am turning more hope-wards than anything else. I guess what I'm saying is that I know what my part in this is, and I'm going to do my damndest to get it done--but there's not too much I can do to make the Big Suits In Charge pull their heads out of their collective asses at this point.
congrats on the adorable boyfriend (and post pics)
I probably won't do that, as he's very shy and no pictures of us together exist as of yet (I guess neither of us is really into the photo thing, seeing as we've been dating for three months). But he's tall, has blue eyes and brown hair, and the cheesiest grin I've ever seen. Uh, and he owns a hell of a lot of books. And he's nice to
everyone.
Oh, and I possess a copy of Hatoful Boyfriend.
Absolutely magical.
Yeah, I've been playing Katawa Shoujo a little and really enjoying it, and I heard from my Favorite Gal on the Net Outside of B12 ("Firefly99," or "Fireholly") that HB is basically MGS on pigeon crack... so I had to own a copy >_> <_< I got myself a copy of Bastion, too, cuz it was on sale and they say it's awesome.
