Well then, I go back to the seminary tomorrow morning, so as usual I'll be refraining from posting here to focus on my studies. You all know the routine by now. I'll see you again in December!

Well, I doubt that anyone would notice my absence, but I'm clearing out for the moment. I don't think I can stand chewing over the old conversations until the middle of November, since the Giant's hors de combat. And, I'm leaving the U.S. for at least 3 months come November, heading for Kazakhstan, where I won't have much Internet access, and what I have will be used for business.

So, this is probably my last post for 5 to 6 months, and if I end up having business in Kiev, it might be 8 to 9 months before I return. See you in a while, folks -- enjoy, and have a great talk on here!

Wouldn't normally have posted, but I just had to say that your avatar is fantastic.

Enjoy your travels.

Welp, my computers are both having issues with the whole "turning on" thing.

So... Yeah.

See ya on the flip side, probably.

...Apparently I spoke too soon after I finally got on a friend's computer to post that, or something.

Hopefully anyway, this thing is bizarre and I'm still not sure why it wouldn't turn on for 3 days in a row, so don't be surprised if I vanish.

Salvete Playgrounders!

Well, my semester at the seminary isn't done yet, but it might as well be because I'm so close to the end. Also, I'm bored out of my mind right now, so I needed a change of pace. It's good to see you all again!

Wait... What? You're in Kazakhstan?

You know... I've always known it was a real place, but for some reason, deep inside my brain there's a part of me that keeps thinking there's no way Kazakhstan is a place. The same goes with Azerbaijan.

Well, best of luck with being in Kazakhstan.

Yes, it's a real place . I've been here six or seven times now, I believe. I can't say that it's the most scenic area of the world I've ever been to; the Internet certainly isn't great; and you're well advised to use a water filter for drinking water.

But, it's not so bad as a place to visit, as long as you avoid the summer (which is lethally hot). Of course, I may be biased since my wife's relatives live here, so there's some hospitality on offer when we're in the vicinity.

...duuuuuuude. My activity level goes down and Knaight bails?! Damnation!

You take care, brother. I recall conversations we've had across the years fondly, even though we've not had any recently. Go in peace man.

It's not as if I post much anymore so posting here is hardly necessary, but the drama queen in me demands it.
I've made a lot of friends on GitP, but that was years ago, none of you keep in touch anymore, and I don't want to be constantly reminded of friendships I no longer have.

I'll be back when and if I feel up to it.

I love you guys. Please keep in touch.

I hope you'll come back one day.
