Still pondering that one.  I'm back and we'll see what happens.

As I said, we shall see.   The jury is still out!

Well, I think it's good that you're back.

I do a lot of volunteer work in the area and I plan on looking for a part time nursing job soon.

Is your new avatar picture made in the same area as the former one?

No, the latest picture is from a mine area in upstate New York.  The Herkimer Diamond Mines.  They are NOT real diamonds, but, the quartz crystals that have come out of the mine are renowned for their clarity and quality.  We were there a week ago and we all found some really nice sparkly crystals.  SHINY!!!!!    :zoinks:    It's open to tourists and professional rock hounds.   You pay a fee and you can keep what you find.

My former name was "ozymandias", I left 5 years ago or so because of an issue with someone who is not here anymore and since she isn't, I prefer to let that story remain in the past.  I just basically got super pissed off and had my account deleted.  I joined soon after I2 was started and left once before, I was persuaded to come back by said person until the big rift.  I had been considering coming back for some time, off and on, it was the return of Lord of the Ales that gave me the incentive to return for the third time.   Especially when ASD community folded.  I thought "What the Hell", I'm not emotionally invested as I was before.

That's all I can think of for now.

I almost thought it was me. :P
You disappeared from more than one forum shortly after me joining. This was the only place you de-registered though IIRC.

Those forums either ended like The Drivel and ASD community, or I left them like AFF and WP.  Spectrumite, I lost interest in.  This is the only forum I have ever had my account deleted by request.
