Hi people… due to a number of reasons, I’m going to be pretty much incommunicado by online methods for the next couple months plus. I need to get my priorities straight, which includes not allowing my surfing addiction to steal away my valuable time. I need time to focus on the important things, like school, and to make myself into a person that I can feel good about. As such, no more email, AIM, or SDMB for me for awhile.

If you care, don’t worry; I’m still around for about 24 hours, and I’ll try to drop in once again after I’ve pulled the plug. Thanks everyone, you’re the best. I hope I’m happy enough with my life to return soon.

Greg

I thought prioritizing was dropping everything and focusing on the SDMB 24 hrs a day. Well, best of luck to ya anyways.
