    Hey Chimmy.
    I've been teaching English, which has been a blast. At least after I learned how to do my job with no help from anyone. I do enjoy getting thrown into the deep end.
    I'm married now to a Chinese woman. I'll post her picture when I get a good one on my laptop.
    And I'm in the process of becoming a freelance writer after not writing for way too long due to teaching, dating, weddings, traveling and other fun things.
    How are you doing?

    I am doing quite well, thank you. :)

    I am glad that life has been so good to you. It will be nice to see you on the threads once more.

    Thanks. I'm glad you're doing good as well.
    I can't promise I'll be on a lot, but I'll try to show up at least once every two days. Although if I procrastinate I'll be here almost constantly.

    Dom! I've been wondering if you'd ever return here, figured married life must have shifted your priorities a wee bit. :D

    I knew you were doing ok, thanks to the occasional mention by your mom.

    Good to see you again.

    Welcome back, Dom! (even though I wasn't here when you were here before:p) It's nice to meet you.

    This is the first time I've ever used the train station to say I wouldn't be here! I'll probably be off and on through Thursday, but after that I leave for Hawaii and won't be back until the 12th. I'll talk to you all when I get back! :D:D

    I wonder if I'll go through WF withdrawals on my honeymoon...

    Haha it's okay. Have fun!

    Remember our signal. One lit candle in the window means the coast is clear.

    Thanks. I'm glad you're doing well (I hear stuff from the same source). And yeah priorities did shift, but now they've shifted again. So I'm trying writing for profit and fun, rather than just fun. It also helps that I'm in China, so getting paid peanuts in American and Canadian dollars, become cashews when transfered to China.

    Thanks, nice to meet you to.
    Enjoy Hawaii, and watch out for sharks.

    Things are going well, except the weather sucks, and Chinese houses are drafty. Its great to hear from you again.

    Great to hear from you too. I've been talking to your mum about you recently. It is so lovely to see both of you back. Feels like home again with everyone returning :) Glad to hear things are going well my friend

    Hmmmm...if you feel such withdrawals, I'd suggest you keep them to yourself...ruminations about a website during a honeymoon is not a great way to start marriage...! LOL

    Have a wonderful time.

    I'm going to be taking some time away from the forums. (Hopefully not too long)
    I appreciate all the kindness you've all shown me and all the new friends I've made.

    Catch you all on the flipside. (of whenever)

    Hi all. Have been pretty busy recently with RL but my time's a little freer now so I intend getting back to doing reviews.

    Wrey will be in Florida next week for some R&R in the Tampa/Clearwater area. I very much doubt that I will be away from the forum completely as my addiction is keen and the fix is sweet. ;)

    We're staying with some friends who have just now sent me an email with a complete itinerary of events to include amusement parks, shopping, and dining. Our fabulousness will be legendary even amongst the fabulous. ;)

    Odd as it might sound, I am looking forward to a week of speaking English and letting my Broca's Area, Wernicke's Area, and Angular Gyrus shift into neutral for a while. :)
