There and back again - a Topic's tale for BG'sCommunity

[Simian]

I guess my post count could be easily doubled and added some few thousands more on top... if we count all the deleted posts.

But anyhow, I might not be making my '5' posts a day for most of December. I'm off to see the world... again.

[Considerate_]

So... over the past week, in the absence of any Internet what so ever, I have:
- Invested in a good encyclopedia collection, and manually been checking up on odd questions and the like, posed by my colleagues... now that I can't just ask Arkanis.

- Bought a Dictionary, without access to one online, how else to make sure my spelling is somewhat eligible.

- Subscribed to the local newspaper, because hey... I need to know what's going on in the world! And why isn't BGTSCC1 in a hard-copy and easily purchasable format?!

- Subscribed to a magazine Science, because I need to read some dribble that isn't news every now and then.

- I had to go downtown, to the physical library, to get a book!!!!

- At the same trip, I bought a phonebook (because how else could I find the numbers for all the places I had to subscribe to above?)

- Keep a checkbook, so I could keep a track on my finansial situation, spending, income etc, now that I couldn't check the Netbank.

- Pay my bills at the POST OFFICE! I didn't know you could do that still :S

- I had to talk with my mum on the phone, instead of just sending the usual e-mail saying "hi, I'm fine, we've done lots of stuff this week and everything's peachy. Please don't call, love you, bu-bye!." That was 2½ hours of my life I'll never get back.

- But worst of all... I had to go... *sniffles* Outside, to do stuff. Anything!



You can't imagine the horror and travesty... I miss you aaaaaaaaaaall! :'(

*Hisses at the mention of the Outernet.* You poor thing, I shall pray that ye may never have to see the abominable and ruthless orb of fire called 'The Sun.' I heard it's very bad for you.

Trying to install Win7. If I disappear for a bit, it's because I failed epicly. Altho' I'll tell the IRC if such happens..


Trying to figure out why it is stuck on the blue screen after "Starting Windows" during installation with a moveable cursor.. Hmm.. Workarounds.. workarounds..

This end-of-the-year RL time is really busy. More than I anticipated to be on vacation. It should return to normal around Jan 6. Until then I (and Nerys) will be scarce IG.

Early Happy New Year wishes to the BG community. Especially to those RPing a Greyfox and the WMT troop.

And I guess I will be back soonish. Spamming the forums, ect.

As break comes to an end I can say I had a great time here on BG. I hope I was able to return a bit of the favor. School starts very soon for me so I'm going to be taking off soon until the next break which isn't for a few months. Anyhow, I've had a blast here and I'll see everyone next break Until then, take care everyone!

Gone for a week. Skiing in the weekend! Woho!

That is, I will probably be available on IRC and the forums now and then, but not in game.

[Valefort]

Gone for a whole week of skiing

[Rasael]

I am jealous.

[Deathgrowl]

I am back. Stop cheering at my absence.

Shuts up unceremoniously
