Title: I'll be away (kinda)... But for real this time!
Post by: warren_bearclaw on November 04, 2010, 04:38:52 PM
Just so y'all know, I'm going to be on RAF a lot less than I normally have been. I love it here, but 135+ hours in my first 7 weeks is a bit more than I can afford. I got a new job (yeehaw!) and a couple extra school courses (Yay?) on top of all the other stuff in my life. (Like Boy Scouts and helping out around the house.) As sad as it makes me to say it, I'm busy. I'll still be on for at least a little while each day (most likely), but it'll only be at night rather than during the whole day.

EDIT: Oh, and by the way, I'm going camping this weekend, so I'll be out till Sunday.

Good luck with your job and your lessons ^^

That's funny for more than one reason... It's just in the DFW area... no bears. I have been camping with bears before though.

Na.... I'm back, btw. Camping was great. Since I'm an adult now  ;D I get to sit around and do nothing! I helped out with some stuff, but mostly I just kicked back and relaxed.

Oh, man, that whole plateau when you finally hit adult is wonderful, isn't it? ;D

Congrats on the job. Like Gaz said, life happens. RAF'll still be here when you get time for us ^_^

Yeah, I won't complain. I got a car, and just got my driver's license, I've got a new job, and  a laptop, and all my college applications are sent in. I'm digging this.

Just a head's up....

As much as I hate to say it, I really do have to cut down on online time. Like I originally meant when I posted this, I'll be on less often. Not like today, where I have almost literally spent my whole day on RAF. I'll still be in the RP's, though I might eventually wriggle my way out of a couple (not just disappear).

@Steph: Don't worry, I'll still be here (kinda)...

@Teach: I've gotta try... YOU CAN'T STOP ME!

@Mike: Thanks. And don't encourage her.

Ah, well, the end of the world isn't here...or is it? Just, get on. Enough.

I'll still be on every night. I've decided that I will give myself the time I need in the day by not getting on RAF while the sun is up on weekdays. That means I can wake up early or stay up late and post, but not during the day. Currently, sunrise is at 7:30a (CST) and sunset is at 5:30p here in Texas. This doen't apply to weekends, though I will still be cutting down on then as well. Saturdays are nice to have, too. Though... my love of RAF will be a strong contributing factor to my weekend planning. Until the dark comes again... g'day.

Oh, shnap, you'll be on mostly when I'm not. Grr...
But those last two lines seemed... melodramatic. To me.

That's sad. Reading your exchanges with Rad, Tony and Marvin is a whole lot of fun. I hope the workload decreases soon, and congrats on all your new stuff!

Wait, so your time on is dependent on the sunrise and sunset? What are you, a vampire? :P

Besides, that's totally awesome right now when we're only one day past the shortest day of the year. But...but...what will we do in June!?!? *cries*

The rules may change by then.  ;D

Well, since the Christmas Chaos is over, my store's hours will go down to 11:00p on weekends, and 10:00p on weekdays. I guess that doesn't help  too much, but it's something. Eventually, I might be able to ease my way back into daylight hours while online, but I've really got to establish that self-control first. From sunset to sunrise was a pretty good boundary for me, since it was definite. Maybe soonish I'll be able to get on for just one hour a day, or maybe just until I read through all my new replies. It's a bummer, having all these restraints, but I've got to have a little moderation.

Or maybe y'all could just try throwing things at me if I'm on for too long....
