Hi everyone! I don't know how to start this or what to say, but I think my life is much more in order than it has been for the last couple of years, so I am going to do my very best to start frequenting this forum again.
For those of you who don't know me, I was really active pretty early on in the site. Then life got weird. I lost a job, husband lost a job, husband had some major health issues, I went back to school for a Master's degree, I wrote a novel (part of said degree), and video games and even the Internet took a back seat to everything going on.
But news! Those of you that I have as Steam friends may have seen that I've actually been playing a game here and there. Although it's only been Skylanders, I've had a bit of time on the PS4 as well. And heck, I even turned my 3DS on the other day. It's like a light at the end of a weird, twisty tunnel with bad cell reception.
Although I practically disappeared from the site, Ronalopolis (my husband) and I have thought of you often throughout the last couple of years. This is the one of only two forums I've ever really felt a part of, and this is the first place online he ever really felt he belonged. There's something special here! (If there wasn't, I wouldn't be writing this right now.)
Ronalopolis has finally gotten better control of his health. (Partially thanks to an insulin pump, partially thanks to some new meds, and partially thanks to some really great neural doctors.) AND we've both gotten new jobs, even though I don't get to start mine until next week.
Point is, it's going to be a while before I'm up on everything that you all have talked about the last couple of years. And I'm sure I have loads of new people to get to know. (Hi! ::waves:
But I'm ready to be back in this awesome community and chat up Harvest Moon, Shin Megami Tensei, and all the other awesome games I've played or need to know about to add to that ridiculous backlog I have.
