Jeepers. Well, first of all, many kisses to all the people above who said such nice things about me.
Second, I am not now, nor have I ever been, someone named Duck Hook. Ditto Scotticher. :rolleyes:
Third, if you’ll go look in Oldscratch’s other DDG MPSIMS thread (which I am not vain enough to provide a link to; I do have some pride) :rolleyes: you’ll see I did have ISP problems, I didn’t go away mad or do another name change or turn into a sock puppet or anything.
Fourth, I only had the one name change, from Notthemama to Duck Duck Goose, in May, and yes, it was because I was sick of the ongoing slugfest. [wringing hands] Can’t we all just learn to get along together? [/wringing hands]
And finally, I’ve been gone 3 whole months, that’s 90 days, that’s [whoops, math], well, a whole lot of long lonely hours away from the SDMB (and it’s all Charles Ardai’s fault), and I am totally blissed-out to be back, and I love everybody here in the room, and I want to be friends with everybody in the whole wide world.
Gosh.
And I’m not drunk, either.
So.
(and because I have the creepy feeling that the question is about to come up–no, [hijack] and I are not related [sigh], we just seem to be two ships colliding in the night, brought together by an evil Fate and a mutual susceptibility to Nyquil. Welcome to the SDMB, babe–I think.)
