Hello Everyone.
First of all, I want to say that I am sorry that I am on and off so much. Things in my life are not settled for the time being, and soon they will become more hectic as Christmas time comes.
I work in a mall at a Gamestop. I don't mind telling you all this, because I feel that I can trust you all with the information. That being said, I already have a hectic enough schedule during the week when it ISN'T holiday time, but now that that time of the year is rolling around, (and I know that it's two months out, but people become panicked and crazy at the mall...) My life is going to be almost chaotic for a time.
I am also going to be doing training for my new associcates at work, meaning that I will be working longer shifts more often, training both them and myself and prepping for the oncoming rush of business.
Secondly, I wanted to say that my personal life has been disquiet recently. There have been several deaths around me within the families of my friends, all of which I have been closely attached to. So, I've had to try and support them while dealing with the loss myself. I have even been asked to be a palm bearer for one of the funerals, this saturday. So, as you can see, it's been... trying to say the least.
I am working, when I have the off chance, on a post for the thread I am in, but I only ask for a little bit of time.
Until then, I hope you are all doing well.
Thank you for your time.
Leon.

Yea, Leon, don't worry about the stuff here. We'll be rooting for you. Thanks for giving everyone a heads up, but yea definitely good luck with the holiday craziness.
Also, I'm so sorry to hear about the losses. I definitely know how hard that is and I'll keep you in prayers.

Hello everyone,
I wanted to come on and give you all a little bit of a status update.
I have personally recovered from the two deaths in my recent life, and am helping my friends who are be-grieved to move forward little by little. In addition, I am now a step higher in the hierarchy of Gamestop, having been given a promotion today because of the work I have put forward. I will be attempting to get the store ready for the Christmas season, and am looking forward to the "decline" of the after Christmas market time.
I am personally struggling, however, with a resurgence of memories and thoughts from a relationship that ended almost two years ago. I have only ever dated one person, this being my first girlfriend, and things went downhill beginning this time two years ago. So, I have been having a difficult time (for whatever reason, honestly I don't know) working with this and trying not to fall back into a depressive slump.
I aim to remedy this, however, with my return to the site! I am, granted, working more during the week, but I am getting the weekends more or less off to recover and prepare for the oncoming season. So, with this time, I will be able to write more and channel energy into something that I love doing, and that is RPing!
Anyhow, I've rambled enough, and I wanted to just thank you for the support you have shown me, and to let you guys know that I'm back! I will be working tomorrow until five, due to having a training day, but I will be able to do things afterwards!
Thank you for your time!
Leon

-backs a dump-truck into the thread- So who's goin' to sign for all these bananas? xD
In all seriousness though, while I lament the tough times you are going through, I am glad to hear there is a silver lining (in regards to your promotion). Just remember to find the good hidden within the bad, and things will work out for the better. Either way you don't need to apologize for your absence, but we are happy to be a sanctuary. ^_^
In all seriousness though, I have about two hundred pounds of bananas that I can ship COD by the ounce. So, as Viv said, crack a smile before I superglue a nice ripe banana in its place >=D Chin up and eyes forward old bean.

Hello everyone.
A quick update. I am working on a reply to the RP that I am currently in already, and am also working on another post that will be open to everyone. I just wanted to give a small status update due to my quietness as of late. I have been working 40 hours a week and am nearly three months backed up in work that needs to be finished before I can start making any kind of headway.
Anyhow, I have some more time tomorrow to work on these things and I will endever to get them up at the end of the day! Please let me know if you would be interested in joining the new RP as well!

Awe I'm sorry for your behindness, Leon! Good luck with the catch up! I know how overwhelming and stressful that can be with work :/ I'm sure you'll get through it though ^.^
Anyway I'd definitely love to rp with you because I'm pretty sure that we never have and it'd be fun! XD We'll see how my schedule is though because I'm also attempting NaNoWriMo this month and I'm struggling with my other RPs e.e; as much as I hate to admit it.
Thanks for keeping us posted!

I keep saying how I'm going to be posting, but then I go a week or more without actually posting! GAH!
I'm sorry y'all. It's just this pre-holiday season and the set up for it has me constantly out of the house and running about. I don't even want to think about next month at this point... T_T
Anyhow. I will say that I have Today (Wednesday, November 11) off as well as tomorrow. I will be sitting down and finishing the posts that I have been promising forever now. And, the nice thing is... I CAN'T GET CALLED IN THESE NEXT TWO DAYS! Over time baby!
Wait... That's not a good thing... Meh.

Hello everyone.
I hate to do this, post and then not come back on and do anything else, but unfortunately, I've been very busy as of late, as well as having little to no muse to write anything.
I don't think that it would be fair to half-grr a reply for you Vivid, so I want to be on my A-game before I continue. I promise to work on it, but right now, I'm in a transitional phase. I have recently lost my job, as well as having other problems cropping up, I am waiting for a response from another place of employment, and I am trying for the life of me to make ends meet, especially when it comes to my Student Loans. All of this has happened over the last two to three weeks, and it has thrown me off for quite the loop.
I'm sorry haha. I'm nearly (I think) at a point in which everything has settled and been accounted for, worked on, and am nearing the point of which things are back in a semblance of order. I will be trying to get my reply to the RP that I am in within the next two days, as well as finally work on an RP idea that I've had for a while now, just never the time.

Firstly I apologize for not being on here lately. Secondly I apologize for double posting.
This last month has been really stressful and difficult. As most of you know, I have left my previous job and am now working again at a place that is a much kinder and welcoming work environment. That being said, I still am working to try and make ends meet in the financial world. On a more personal level, things have been rather strenuous at best.
Not to go into a lot of detail, but several of my friends have been fighting depression and the like, so trying to help them out of a funk has been rather high on my list of things. In addition, I have been running about my home trying to fix various things that have broken, are in need of replacement, or need to be installed. So, my home life has been rather hectic as well.
In short, I'm kinda tied up at the moment, but not dead. I'm working on a reply for you Vivid, but it might take a little more time, so I hope that when it's up, you enjoy it!
Thanks everyone.

Hello everyone.
I'm sorry for not posting as soon as I had planned on. Things in RL have been much more... testing than I would have liked.
I have been going through a much tougher time that I would have liked, my own depression kicking into more serious swings that normal. I have been to several sessions of consoling, and, for the most part, it has helped. Outside of that, I have been working random hours, and the stress of that plus the lack of funds that I need to pay off my student loans each month has had me stressed out more that I can say.
So, I have found a little time in which to write on here and let people know that I am indeed alive and I am thinking of you guys. I hope that everyone is well and that I can get a chance to some-time soon sit down and RP with several of you.
Cheers.
