Checking myself back into the asylum

WildBlueSooner · 01-13-2011, 07:49 PM

Just trying out the new smilies. Now that I have that out of the way I just wanted to say I miss you guys (and gals). I haven't been on here much since March of 2010. During that period I was selected for a new job at work, which is considered prestigious, but also difficult. I finished that job last week (it is a rotating position) and am now back to my primary duty.

That is not all I have been up to though. I started a business which I have been running in my spare time. It was a ton of work in the beginning (and still is) but requires less time day to day than it did in the beginning. Luckily for me it is progressing quite well.

As for cigars I had very little time to smoke except on weekends when I didn't have to work. I always tried to make the best of these situations, in fact, I started a little group that gets together on most Fridays for a few smokes and drinks. I am looking forward to getting back to a few days a week (as soon as it warms up). I look forward to going back and seeing what I missed in the forums during my absence. I already saw that the bombing campaigns are as wild as ever (I owe a few beat downs).

I know I come and go sometimes, as life allows, but I am really hoping things will slow down and I can take some time to do one of my favorite things, talk with all the B/SOTL on this forum. To all of my friends on here new and old, I am glad to be back and hope I can stick around a little longer this time
