DeepGirl is here, just not on as often as I'd like. If I can just get another desk job, I can hopefully remedy that.

Hello MSG:

I have noticed the same thing. It may be just a phase. Have you seen RMMC lately. I was sharing a lot of posts with her and now I haven't seen any from her for some time.

If you are out there RMMC, Traveler says "Hello".

PS: MSG, I like your slogan in your signature. I actually practice annoying people with politeness. Makes me feel all warm inside.

I guess I'd be one of the "many more".
I also got 2 jobs now, one as a comic book artist and one as a level designer for a computer game - I'm living my dream, but it robs me of most of my spare time. I'm still around though, always will be.

I'm so into Firefly, my butt glows in the dark. And in the dark is where I am, lurking.

i'm back, got a home again, and broadband, so am sort of doing a bit of a phased return (really want to find my digi-cam and get into taking part in the picture threads, but i think it's still somewhere in my old bedroom, so, may take time)

Hey Agatsu,when I saw that list I immediately wondered about you.I was reminded of you while watching the movie Dodge Ball the other day,when David Hasselhof appeared for a cameo with his atrocious German. Good to see you're still around.
Personally there's been so much weirdness in my life that I really haven't posted at all in the past three months or so.I signed up for that Browncoat post dispatch(basically folks writing each other actual letters!).It must have been a crazy moment of extreme wishful thinking on my part,because I received post cards from five Browncoats and haven't responded two a single one.(My apologies to Embers,Capture,Exotick,Terri and Kristy if you happen upon this post!)I do plan to mend my ways though.Anyway,I would love to see what kind of animation you're into!Nice to see someone succeeding in their chosen field.Later.

Yeah, every once and a while someone resurrects an old thread and I see posts from people I don't really know that have since disappeared. It's kind of sad actually and a little scary that Browncoatiness could wear off...that's not a pleasant thought.

I have learned that people start to spend time in other areas of the community. They can be found discussing Buffy or politics. I know that some people left us, but I feel it in my bones that they are Browncoats to the end.

Hi Traveler. *waves* I've been gone as my Mom's ill. I'm rarely online as I've got dial-up and so I don't want to tie up my phone line too much.

Hey Guys.It's me again!Who am I you ask.Just Browncoat #13569.Good to hear from folks that haven't been around in a while.

Inevitablebetrayel,I've not seen you around.Although that's not saying much since I'm not exactly Mr.Post-it either.Must say I was impressed by your number,4376.You're like one of the founders,a veritable pillar of the community.(Not being sarcastic.)I hope for your sake that there's an end in sight to the being burned out bit.At least you have fellow Browncoats to talk with.Great username by the way!

Caite,I've read your posts here and there.Good to see your name again!Looks like you've been around for a while too #8143.I look forward to reading more of your posts in the future!

RMMC,I've been wondering where you've been.It was fun following your exploits at Pensic.I'm very sorry to hear about your mother.I do hope that she is improving.My Mom got sick last year and I went to take care of her too.It wasn't always very easy and unfortunately things didn't turn out well but at least I had three months with her where we got to hang out and share meals and good times.I am now at the old homestead cleaning out about twenty years worth of stuff,taking apart what my parents built together,in order to sell their house.Not nearly as much fun as it's made out to be!

I think it was Kaylee who said that everyone has a story to tell.I sure wish there was an quick way to get to know everyone's story.Maybe that would be too easy.Oh well,I for one mean to do a little less loitering,(I don't so much like the term lurking,it has nefarious overtones)and more posting!

I'm flattered and insulted at the same time.
But mostly flattered.
Hitler and Hasselhoff - the two people whose stench us Germans just can't seem to shake off.

I'm not into animation, though. I wanted to do it, but decided that illustrations and comic books are more up my alley. And the level designer job just sort of happened because of this guy I met at my best friend's barbecue. I just majorly lucked out, I guess.
As a side note, one of my Firefly DVD boxes and a copy of Serenity are making their rounds in the office, and - who'da thunk it - they love it.
So I'm still on the mission, even though I had made myself scarce here. Browncoats 4 life!

I'm so into Firefly, my butt glows in the dark. And in the dark is where I am, lurking.

I'm actually going to be attending that charity Serenity screening in Dallas this Friday and I'll see how many others I can bring along with me. Hope you guys are well, I will catch up as I can! Work and stuff has been keeping me busy, but things appear to be slowing down.

Mom won't be getting better and I'm checking out the family leave policy where I work. Dad's been gone over 20 years, but Mom remarried a few years back so it's not just my brother and I handling things.

Sorry to hear you've been through this as well. *hugs* It just sucks.

As you can see I'm not a happy camper which is also why I've stayed away a bit. I don't want to depress other folks.

Hello RMMC:

You bake. I don't cook at all. I live alone and I just lost the enthusiasm to cook just for myself.

The best part of Christmas was my mother baking cookies. She had a couple of good recipes that were just fantastic. She doesn't bake anymore. I would bug here about it, but she deserves to take a break after years of caring for me and my sister. But I do miss thoughs cookies.

In the latest imponderable is whether people like celebrating their birthdays. I have to admit birthdays were very special when I was a child. Licking the bowl after my mother got done pouring the cake batter into the baking pans for my birthday cake. Gotta love that.

So post when you have the time. I will be on the lookout for them.

Take Care;
Traveler

Hi! Been known to bake. It was easier when I had a reliable oven (read: gas rather than electric) but the one I have now in my current apartment is anything but consistant. I can bake something at 350 one week and it's burnt, then try the next week at the same temp and it's only half done. Go fig.

Same here, but I've recently gotten very tired of frozen whatevers, take out and pre-packaged salads that I've been eating for the past year or so. I just made a nice pot of stew that I'll eat for several days and freeze what's left.

I much prefer cooking for more folks and kind enjoy the whole camping at Pensic I do as I make a few big meals and freeze them to take along for the encampment to eat.

I miss my old roommate. We had a nice agreement. I cooked and she cleaned. (I loathe cleaning and she never learned how to cook until after she moved away from home and only learned very rudimentary skills.)

Yeah, mom always made wonderful butter cookies and rum balls. I guess I'm gonna have to try my hand at it. Dunno if I'll try it this year, though.

Oh, yeah, doing that was always fun, even when I got the 'don't eat that--there's raw eggs in it' lecture after.
