I've always been a lucky bastard. I'm much preferring RL over VL right now.
IRL I'm taking care of a growing family and starting a new career, nothing I even have the option to walk away from in favor of VL. That being said, I like the occasional distraction from working my ass off all day...

It will, I'm confident, he has a high fiber diet.

I took some time off. I've got a lot going on irl, and had to prioritize. I've started a business doing guitar servicing, maintenance, and repairs, and it's off to a decent run so far. I'm still at my job full-time, and spending time with loved ones, too.
I'm still here stinkin' up the joint ... it's just easier to get rid of the odor now. 
Oh, thank goodness! [emoji173]. I was afraid someone had run you off. It seems like every time I have a second to pop in and touch base someone else has left... Congrats on your budding business! Sounds like something you would enjoy very much. Maybe in time you will be able to quit your FT job!

Told myself I wasn't gonna do this but there are a few folks here who I would consider friends so... I'm out after today, for good.
You guys are a great bunch and this is legitimately one of the best forums around, but the time has come for me to go.
Everyone take care.

“Love is the only bow on Life’s dark cloud. It is the morning and the evening star. It shines upon the babe, and sheds its radiance on the quiet tomb. It is the mother of art, inspirer of poet, patriot and philosopher.
It is the air and light of every heart – builder of every home, kindler of every fire on every hearth. It was the first to dream of immortality. It fills the world with melody – for music is the voice of love.
Love is the magician, the enchanter, that changes worthless things to Joy, and makes royal kings and queens of common clay. It is the perfume of that wondrous flower, the heart, and without that sacred passion, that divine swoon, we are less than beasts; but with it, earth is heaven, and we are gods.” - Robert. G. Ingersoll

Not acceptable. Why not have a week or two off and then come back?

New career. Moving out of state and need to go off the grid (not to live in the woods, just getting off all social media and the like). For security and privacy. Found out today I'm for sure getting the position. Gonna miss everyone here though!
