OOC as all holy hell, again!
((Okay, so officially, I should be back now. I know I disappeared randomly, without warning, for a month. No, I'm not quitting or dropping or any such thing. No, I was having no computer problems. But yes, I was having major familial Issues, that made it pretty much impossible to do much of anything except curl up and try to ignore the universe. Yeah, I do not do stress well, and Daddy had decided to become a bit of (or more than a bit of) a dick, parents were having daily (multi-daily, some days) screaming matches, they were talking divorce, dad was freaking pulling religion on me saying I had to live with him instead of mom because I had to be "under his roof," I was making arrangements to move out of my house and just live with friends until I could live on my own, a freaking friend of the family who lives out of state--and who is in his thirties, so he's not just being immature or anything--actually felt he needed to extend the offer that I could live up there with him if I had to move out, since he was afraid my father would actually try to abduct me if I stayed in the area...
Well, yeah. A lot of crap. Crap crap crap. But it seems to have been temporary insanity or something, and my parents are back to getting along now, and we've even started laughing and shit as a family again... I'm still afraid there's gonna be a blowout sometime, but they aren't fighting daily anymore, and if something does happen, I actually am going to pick up and go somewhere else... which would actually mean not disappearing again, since Have Laptop; Will Travel is my motto.
So. Hi, guys, I'm back again. And I'm not ever going to disappear like that again. *knocks on wood* Trouble being, de Carabas. Has been disappeared. For a month. At a point in the plot where, uh, that's not a good option any way we look at it. He's the only one of my pup's I'm going to have trouble bringing back in, and when I say trouble, in this case, I mean trouble. Can you guys help me figure out a good reason for his absence? I'm at a loss.
Also, Ali-mun, thanks for the nudges. Though I'm just now feeling up to doing something about it, it's good to know I've been missed. *smile*))
