I'm back. Apparently I was hauled down to the fourth floor for the last month or so, but it seemed like considerably shorter than that on my end. [There is another pause before he continues again. This is

Aim?

[imthefavorite]

Yes, it's me. I'm fine, are you alright? I

[imthefavorite]

Yeah, I'm fine. Maybe a little residual cabin fever, but nothing that won't pass.

A spaceship? Wh- Did you hit your head while you were there?

I'll have to tell you what I know about myself, some time. I think it'll make more sense.

And here I just thought you enjoyed my company. Shame.

[imthefavorite]

I am itching to get to the range again, but I could also go for a cup.
