Recent occurances in my life, mainly needing to find a well paying and steady job, as well as focusing on school so I can get done on time, have lead to me needing to put recreation on hold. While my writing may some day become something, ultimately it is only taking away precious time I could be getting myself into a better position to enjoy life fully in a few short years. I'm not sure my absense will be felt, but even still, I feel bad about having to leave you all behind, if only for a few months.

I thank Ishmayl, Brainface, Daggerheart, and now Elven Doritos for making this site what it is today (I would never have taken it this far). I thank Natural 20, Luminous Crayon, and anyone else I'm forgetting for making this community what it is today. Thank you all for giving me some great times; thank you for boosting my creative ego.

I will return, hopefully sooner than later, but I need to focus on what is necessary to my life. I hope you understand, and I thank you for your support.

Do what you need to do. We understand.

Here's hoping you can rejoin us again sooner rather than later, as you will certainly be missed.

Take care, bud. I hope things work out for the best.
Oh, how we danced and we swallowed the night
For it was all ripe for dreaming
Oh, how we danced away all of the lights
We've always been out of our minds

Your absense will be felt, Xev. Good luck with everything, and I hope you will find yourself able to return to us soon!

Goodbye, Xeviat, I... I... *sobs*  I told myself I wasn't going to cry!

But seriously, good luck, and I hope when you come back, that you tell us about this "well paying and steady job" you speak of.  I myself am quite interested in the concept of "pay-ment" for work...

A great website for you and me,
Spinning webs, connecting dots,
Building campaigns, advancing plots.
Look out, here comes the CBG.

Is it cool? Listen bud-
It's got nothing but gamer blood.
Can it live on a thread?
Yes it can, it's never dead.
Hey there! This is the CBG.

CBG, CBG,
Friendly neighborhood CBG.
Wealth and fame, never seen-
Though they sound really keen.
To it,
Life is a great big campaign-
Wherever there's a campaign,
You'll find the CBG![/spoiler]

Later dude, see ya when you come back.  You started a great thing, and it is a shame that you must miss even a moment of it's growth.  Return someday, lest you blink and the greatness of the CBG becomes too brilliant to look upon.

(Yeah, I feel poetic today)
