Hello!
*coughs nervously*
So I'm back! Kind of.
Got a bit devoured by life for a bit, but I saw the date, was reminded of a bad canon of the past, and went "hey wait wasn't this the same calender date as the first day I posted on the PPC forums?"
And lo, it was.
I'm also deathly afraid of forums. So this'll be fun.
Oh boy, where do I begin. Well, since I vanished off the map, I'm still in the lovely PNW, albeit briefly. But I'm hopefully moving to the UK soon, to the green northernly bit. Although those of you who have known me these past five years know I've been "moving to the UK" for about that long. But hey, this year I really feel it. I have a paying job (sometimes) and I have most of my paperwork in order, except for the citizen registration papers.
Uhhhh... haven't written much. Haven't done much at all but work and panic.
But I do work with 3d printing, now! And I just saw the third hobbit movie today. (I'm surprised less people aren't frothing at the mouth about it on here.) It was. Alright. First twenty minutes were hobbit, last two hours or so were ??Silmarillion?? *makes ????? noises*
Anyway I'm in the #PPC chatroom right now, just kinda lingering with intent. Will be for the next like, hour or so. So... yeah.
Five years. That's more than a quarter of my lifetime. I was a snot nosed squidling when I wandered in here. And now I'm almost a responsible member of adult society.
Holy cow, guys.
Here's to many more!

Welcome back! I'm a bit of a lurker these days too, but hopefully will be around more in 2015 assuming my work becomes less busy.
Have a welcome-back mongoose!

It's been way too long since you've been around. I'm glad life's been going well for you. ^^

Wait, have we met before? I don't remember... Anyway, as someone who's close to their first PPC-versarey, have a triple-deluxe-everlasting-extra-chocolatey cake! Oh, and take this roaring bunny. If the urple bow around its neck becomes too much, feel free to remove it.
So, wow, sounds like a lot of stuff is happening! Moving to England? Woah. And...I don't know, there was a discussion about BOFA a while ago and I haven't seen a discussion about it since.
If it's not too personal, might I ask what sort of 3D printing you're doing? My mom's going back to school for computer science and she's really fascinated by 3D printing stuff.

Good to see you again! Glad you're making the moneys, and that you're getting closer to the Big Move! 3D printing is fancy~!
I actually saw Five Armies in Boston with Araeph and Fractal Dawn earlier this week. I got treated to a long explanation of Everything Wrong by Fractal on the walk back to the subways; my Tolkien knowledge is not up to par in this community. My main problem with the film is that, being based only on the climax and denouement of the novel, it's basically one long, tense fight scene with hardly any breather moments. It wasn't as fun as most of the other . . . anything Tolkien. Yeah. -
