Well, as some of you may have noticed, I've been MIA for over a week now, with no explanation, and I figure I owe y'all a apology, and [finally!] an explanation for my absence.
Firstoff, there was Turkey Week itself. Between playing Dead Space, Far Cry 2, and re-playing Ace Combat 6, all my free time was sucked up. Toss in several family events, and the rest of my time just went right out the window, just like magic. But it was cool, by Thursday Night, after the family and I returned from a ATV outing out in Agness everything was looking like it'd settle down for a nice, quiet weekend.
Then on Friday mornin' all hell broke loose. Dad ended up taking mom to the hospital early in the morning, around 0700, [7AM for you civilian types] where she got subjected to the horrors of our local hospital. [Seriously, I wouldn't go to these guys to have a sprained wrist treated unless I had to. They've only got a handful of competent nurses and docs, the rest are quacks. Lucky for mom she got most of the competent ones treating her.]
After hours and hours of testing, she ended up getting some surgery! [O.O] Well, needless to say, I was in and out of the hospital all weekend, visiting her. [She came home Monday, and she's perfectly fine, thank God.]
Since she currently can't lift anything weighing more than Five pounds [about two kilos, I think] me and my sis have been doing a lot to help her out. By the time I've got free time, I don't have the mental capacity do get on the forum. And considering how my sleeping patterns have been completly haywire the last couple weeks, my energy levels are at a all-time low.
But now things have settled down around here, and there's a lot off my plate, so I've got the time to come back and fiddle around on the Forum now.
Apologies to anyone who was baffled by my disappearance, and to those who's RP's were put on hold by my absence. I'll be doing my best to catch up over the next few days!
