The play is at one of the local(ish) Community Theaters in the area.
There are SEVERAL small-to-tiny Community groups, and a couple of 'large(er)' groups, I work with the larger ones when I have time.
(Time, yeah, right. What's that?!?!) ;P
OR, I MAKE time if they are doing a show I REALLY wanna be in! :D
Every once in a while, the University's Opera director does a show that needs more folks than he has students, and he opens it up to the public.
I've been in a few of those.
OR, he'll offer me a part.
Which is when I KNOW that he needs/wants me to pull some kind of hard-to-do Techie magic for him. ;P
Anyone else still around?
Still here!
But the thread got moved to my 'inactive' side, and it didn't show the new posts
I presume Pat is still slammed with RL.
(I know the feeling)
How's everyone doing?
Have a great week all!
Apparently, when a thread get moved to your 'Inactive' list, posting in the CHAT thread of that thread does not return it to your active list?
I'm still here. Hoping for a return to a semblance of normalcy soon.
Yes. That includes living vicariously through my toon in THIS thread! :)
Hope everyone is well?
Have to post IC for it to become active once more.
I texted with Pat a few weeks ago, he is super busy at the moment. It's one of those snowball issues where once it's so far gone it's just so far gone that it's hard to get back. I know, I have had the same problem all of November in my games.
I think he will pop back up for air once he gets a break.
Yes. That includes living vicariously through my toon in THIS thread! :)
I'm with you. PbPs are pretty much the only creative outlet I have left these days.
Same.
I figured he was 'just' busy. Like the rest of us. ;P
I'm just glad that he's OK.
I hope that EVERYONE is OK(?!?)
Don't realize how much I like these threads til their inactive. :(
Happy December everyone!
(End of the Calendar year. SO close, yet SO far away,...) ;P
Happy December everyone!
(End of the Calendar year. SO close, yet SO far away,...) ;P
To you as well.
I was texting with a certain Dungeon Monkey who might come out of hiding soon, at least I hope he will!
Holes can be nice.
(especially nice, cozy Hobbit-holes!) ;)
But emerging from them is even better! :D
Hello all.
So, there really isn't a way to say this, except... sorry.
Maybe sorry doesn't cover it.
I haven't been active since the end of the summer.
This isn't the first time I've dropped off the map. As you well know.
I think it is a thing in my brain.
I get swept up in real life. Forces beyond my control consume me, and I get behind. My ADHD gets the better of me and my procrastination gets into a feedback loop and suddenly ... a month goes by. I'm embarrassed, then mortified. I don't want to visit because I am so embarrassed, and it gets worse the longer it goes. Meanwhile, life continues to pull at me relentlessly with its various emergencies, and suddenly it is Fall. Then Halloween. Then Thanksgiving. Then Christmas.
So Merry Hallothanksgivingmas everyone, from your inconstant Dungeon Monkey. I have finally decided to pluck up my courage and return to the boards to see if perhaps I can pick up the pieces and restart the games. Because, believe it or not, I miss them dearly. They are never far from my thoughts.
A quick synopsis of my recent life: I have gone through some good and bad things. I have had some health scares. Nothing too horrible, but things I need to work on. I have lost 50 pounds. I quit social media. I have had a financial scare. another thing that I have been working on, which has cut into my free time. I am about to start a new job. This will hopefully help with the previous issue. I have been working on reorganizing certain things in my life, and this game, and the others I am involved in are a part of that.
So, I am asking who is still here, and who is still willing to continue. I know that you have no reason to trust in my constancy, and I can't guarantee I will be constant. However, I do love creating world for you all to play in, and I think you all like to play in them. It may take a bit to get to where you are going, but we've been this far, and I'd love to see where we can go in 2025 and beyond.

My Dude,
"Sorry" Isn't even needed. Is all good.
Believe me, I've been watching, and it seems like RL has been Combo-Sucker-Punching us all recently.
(SOme more than others it seems!) O_O
Sorry to hear about the problems.
I sincerely hope there were more 'good' than 'bad',
(Congrats on the -50lbs! And hopefully congrats on the new job?!)
Hey, I LOVE playing in your sandboxes, if you can put up with me dropping in and out every other day/week due to my 'issues', I'll happily stay!
Heck, I think we were all just waiting for you to get through whatever life was tossing at you and come back! :)
(It's always worth the wait!) ;)
Welcome back Sir Dungeon Monkey!
Like i Said in Opaline Tide thread, still here good to go :-)
I'm still around. Welcome to the "lost 50 pounds" club.
