I have not posted since the crash of Feburary. First I couldn’t log on then my computer broke.  
Now I have regestered under the same name because my computer ain’t broken no more.  
I’t been a while.  
I got a kitten.  
_Teemings_ published a story that I wrote.  
It’s good to be back.

(now I’ll probably disappear for another 4 months)

So, like, is everybody getting a kitten here, or what?

okay my post count was in the triple digits before the crash. I didn’t actually get a kitten my wife did. She and the other cat get along fine.

Why is **Roadwalker’s** post count at “1” when he’s made two posts? 😕
