So...

[Jared]

...what did you guys do while we were gone? :)

[PhoenixDown]

I drank beer and went to work when not drinking beer.

[smartypants]

Started university! Changed my major in the first week of being there! Worked, and was very sad that this was gone!

[Minimus]

I was hella worried when i saw u guys got hacked again, Athro remember the olds days when that Stalker guy was around!? That shiz was nuts.

Anwayz I've been at college, takes Psych, Philosophy, Eng, Math. Get out everyday before 12pm. Straight home to do homework, then straight out to go skate. Good stuff. Check my sig! My math teacher handed me the article, turns out a photographer was at the skatepark when I was there and took pics of me for a local newspaper discussing what the locals are up to and how the skatepark is a good place for the peoples to chill. Fun stuff. Aside from all the hype, just chilling enjoying life.

[huh]

I started my new job and I found an apartment to move into. Should be an interesting next few weeks, hah.

[Asphodelle13]

Worked a lot. Will be starting a new job soon. Now its my bday..Wheeeeee! :P

[Lone_Raider]

Happy Birthday! Mine happened on the 20th of September while the forums were down. I'm the big 23 now!

[Asphodelle13]

I'm the big 23 now!

Yep. Me too!

[Jared]

Happy birthday guys!

[Cashew]

I GOT A LIFE!

... actually, no, I didn't. But I did go back to school. And I've currently got a show up at my uni's art gallery, and that's taken up a lot of my time.

[Wolf]

I went out once or twice... spent most of the money I earned (through blood sweat and tears) on liquor and drugs.

[LynzyLou*]

I started school, met a few new people, lost a few people (a lot of people went back to school out of town)....nothing too exciting. My life is boring, what can i say...:P

[ittakessome]

what did i do?
-i missed you guys terribly.
-i started a new job at the mall near my house. (i sell calenders.)
-my mom put our house (that we've lived in for about 8 years) up for sale. (yea i live with mommy still. :))
-i celebrated my 2 year anniversary with my boyfriend.

[vampbarbie]

Worked a lot. Went out a bit. Shopped too much. Kept checking here going 'What's happening?!" Watched way too much Firefly and am getting very excited about Serenity.

[Kuky]

I moved to seattle. See how drastic I get when I don't get my forums fix? hehe. Started work, moved in to my apartment and stuff. Will take pictures once things settle a little.

[Sweet-ish]

What did I do? I participated in a non-stop sexual marathon :mrgreen:...in my head. :doubt:

Okay, in all seriousness, here's what (basically) occurred:

-- Checked back here everyday to see what was up.
-- I signed up for my 16th year in curling (that weird sport where one guy screams at two other guys to sweep in front of a shaped hunk of granite that someone else threw down the ice. Yes, it almost looks as funny as it sounds :p).
-- In addition, the NHL has returned and the hockey (pre)season has started, so I've been paying attention to that. :mrgreen: What a surprise, eh?
-- I renewed my driver's licence. No big deal.
-- Cursed repeatedly at the high cost of gas.
-- And the days until the NHL regular season starts...and my birthday fell into the single digits (nine days for both, as of today).

By the way, happy birthday (belated or on time) to those of you who had a birthday during the latest apocalypse. http://members.shaw.ca/fergorama/smilies/dmd_wave.gif

[Nonny]

Mostly? Writing, World of Warcraft, and sex. :P

[Deidre]

I have my first exam in Classical Greek on Friday and I study 150% fulltime, plus I'm on the student body council, the department board of directors and the student archaeologist organisation, and I'm belly dancing and trying to maintain a social life, so... I was kind of busy.

Oh... and I did this (http://pics.livejournal.com/eydimork/gallery/0000sb3g).

[Rainne]

Started school again. Joined Campus Ministry and the dance team. Weird

Got a job interview. Today actually. I'm nervous as hell.
Had lots of sex. Got my nipples pierced. Drank alot.

That's basically it.

[Tootsie Pop]

Lot and lots of homework. Working to graduate.

[Jared]

Well, when I wasn't trying to get this place going, I relaunched my blog (http://www.jaredwsmith.com).

[The Sage]

apart from helping jared on the site, trying to get my server to install php5 which has been the biggest friggin nightmare i've ever had!!

[Nurseman]

I mostly got pissed off.


........and stayed that way.


......?


Hey! I just noticed we got no smileys. Crap!

[Roguish Grin]

Hey! I just noticed we got no smileys. Crap!

Whoa damn! you're right..... :cry:

*notices that there's no smiley.....really cries*

oh, wait, there is.....whoops.....can we get the smiley menu back, though? pwetty peas?

[Brass Monkey]

I moved back to LA.
Been interviewing at several jobs.
Got my iPod Nano (4 gig black).

Otherwise, it's been pretty quiet.

[Jared]

I put the smilies up on the side of the main posting screen, though I need to work on that for the quick reply box. In the meantime, if you want to click smilies, use the "Go Advanced" option until I figure out how to put the smile box in the quick reply box.

Tried pixie dust?

[Brass Monkey]

Tried pixie dust?
Tried it? Heck, he's been snorting the stuff for the past 3 days. Why do you think he's been so wired and got the forums back up as fast as he did?

[BlondTgr]

I've had school...basically. Lots of guy problems, so maybe I'll actually post for advice again! ugh. I freaked out about the major possibility of "the big one" (earthquake) hitting Seattle in the very near future(my whole family lives there)...uhh yeah. Good timing, Kuky! haha. Oh, well, we can't control it. And...let's see....my money started disappearing! fun!

I'm gonna have to check into rehab after all this is over...

[Lone Wolf]

I studied organic chemistry.
I went running.
Some more organic chemistry.
Some more running.
Studying organic chemistry, I thought about the meaning of life, about death, about fame (there are those pictures of famous chemists on my textbook and I started wondering about what they think (or would think); like if they've accomplished something by ending up in my textbook or that maybe they don't give a shit because they're dead... and and and...).


Now I'm trying to study less.

:cool3:

Which is kinda easy if you start playing around with World of Warcraft.
I think it's the game with the biggest addiction potential since "Catholic schoolgirls strip poker".

:agree:

I feel like such a dumbass, but where is the "main posting screen" and where is the "Go Advanced" thingy?




........Did I just say "thingy"? I spend WAY too much time with my 9 y/o niece.

[Jared]

The Go Advanced button is next to "Post Quick Reply" in the Quick Reply box. My bad; was in a rush :)
