Partly Back - Well Sort Of

I am partly back at this point. I have been trying to log in every few days and dedicate a little time to editing. Currently I am working to get back up to speed with some quality control projects, but I have also been dabbling in the Editor requested Reinstatements and New permission lists. I hope to be able to put more and more time back into things as my schedule starts to work its self out.

And finally some good news:

Wanted: Serenity, please, and plenty of it!

Welcome back Mak! I missed you.

DMOZ Birthday

Wow time flies! Today marks my 4th ODP birthday, so HAPPY BIRTHDAY to me!

Hard to believe 4 years ago today, some nutty Meta editor (whom will remain nameless at least to non-editors, to protect their own reputation ) goofed and pushed that accept button on my third (or so) editor application by mistake, instead of rejecting it. Hey everyone makes a mistake every now and then, right? Oh well I am glad they took that risk and let me try and break some things. Its been a fun roller coaster ride so far. Looking forward to the next four years.

I have been so swamped in real life I haven’t logged in to edit for quite a while now. I think I made a couple of edits a couple of weeks ago. I didn’t even realize my birthday was today, until an old friend turned ex-editor sent me a nice email a little while ago. I happened to be on line at the time and it spurred me to do some work.

What I did tonight:

• Reinstated a few editors who were requesting it.
• Cleared a few Reds from Indiana.
• Updated several URL’s adding some new one’s to save some of those reds.
• Caught up on email and the forums.

Later I might pop over to RZ and see what I have been missing as well. If I owe you a response its time to bump me again, as I think I got to everything I was lacking on. I hope to get more time online soon. I am also suffering many ISP related issues. My provider can’t seem to maintain a steady broadband signal to my area. My signal and connection is intermittent at best and often goes out in the middle of browsing.

Until next time!

Mostly Away

Just a brief update on my status for the summer.  I have been mostly away the last couple of weeks and likely will continue to be mostly away for some time to come.  Real life has taken some twists and turns making less free time available to dedicate to hobby projects etc.  Also intermittent ISP problems have created even more problems with getting on line.

I am still around and will do my best to dedicate as much time as I can.  It will be very sporadic for a while though, at least until I can stabalize my internet connection and get some symbalance of a schedule in place.  If I owe you an email response, bump me in a week or so.  I haven’t been ignoring you, just been busy and forgetful.
