So, last year I kinda fell off the face of the Earth. I was really depressed after a tough break up and my freshman year of college completely fucked over the way my life worked. Things are stable now though, and I can feel that itch every civcraft player knows all too well.

Lately with all the talk about 3.0 I've been thinking on all of the fun I had both in Carson and with you guys here in LL, and I miss those late nights in the mumble chat. I miss giving sermons about potatoes. I miss going on crazy P trips across the U3P. I miss all you guys.

So what's been going on over the last year with all of y'all?

Since I left, I really started working on something I've always been very passionate about: Hardcore/Metal vocals. I bought a pretty nice Microphone setup and have been doing about a video a month since last summer. I hope to start a band soon, I even have a guitarist friend who's toured nationally before, but it seems metal drummers are a rare breed in North Dakota.

Starting this year, I got together with a few of my classmates and my roommate and started a comedy podcast called Three Empty Chairs. We just shoot the shit, and play a game I invented where we each find articles on Wikipedia and Urban Dictionary, and the others have to guess what the articles are about/what the terms mean. Which reminds me, I have two episodes backlogged that are waiting to be edited...

Professionally, I started working at a local radio station about 3 months ago, and starting monday I'm gonna be on 5 hours a day, 5 days a week. And the coolest part is the shifts are pre-recorded, so I only have to be there for like an hour a day. It's the best.

I quit smoking. I rarely smoked more than 3 cigs a day, but I started hating the smell and alway had the little bird in the back of my mind that told me I should really stop before it got out of hand. It had been about a year since I started, and the little bird finally won. I picked up vaping to fill the void and get a bit of the same stress relief without killing myself quite as quickly.

And finally, I just got an apartment and am moving the vast majority of my earthly possessions into it tomorrow morning.

That's enough about me. What have y'all been up to since ol' bane died?
