*quick note* (before I head off to play some more DDR Extreme ^_^): People, how many times am I *really* gonna have to say this? I DON'T BOTHER WITH SPELLCHECKING!!! Most of the time my spelling is adequate enough to get the point across, particularly since when I type, I tend to type phonetically (force of habit when typing 70-80+ wpm) I'll start doing it again... eventually, or if anyone wants to volinteer their time, go for it. But quite frankly, I'm doing this out of enjoyment, not some obligation for exoteric professionalism :p

Well folks, I just thought I would like to tell you that I'm gonna be disappearing for a while...

So you say 'it cannot be! Where will you go?' Well, you probably aren't saying such a thing, but I'll explain to you the reason anyhow. It's simple, really. It all is about one word...

Love.

*Snicker*, yeah, I found that funny too, but seriously, it does rely on *two words*...

Love...

Love for ORTA

Okay, that's three words, if you like me to clarify, it's love for Panzer Dragoon ORTA on the XBox.

Allow me go to into even more detail...
Love for Panzer Dragoon Orta on the XBox through a 52 inch HDTV with my XBox displaying through component cables, with a BOSE surround sound system pumping (yeah, I'm making myself jealous too, and I own it ^_^ )

So, for the next... month or so, as I'm plastered in front of the boob tube, drooling like the most proficient geriatric at your local old people farm, er, home, you'll be wondering what will become of you? Have I forsaken you?

In all honesty, yeah I have. But don't fret! This only means I will be going into my RESERVE fics! Oh no, you mean I've been holding out on you? Sure have! ^_^. Saved them just for the occasion I decided to get lazy. Some of these fics are actually starters that won't even be really gone into until spring or so (yup, I actually PLAN when to release fics, to boot!), but they'll give you a sneak peak at what's to come. I even have a couple of completed fics to put up (like my first Ranma fic, 10 chapters), so I'll prolly leave you with more than enough to read, even if it's crap ^^;

Anyhow, well, now you will know why all the regular stuff will be taking a back seat for the time being. I will probably every once in a while write one of them, but in the mean time, Orta shall own my charcol soiled soul with a tender and crushing grip (shut up, 'oxymoron' my sweet-)

Oh, and on a side note. People, when you IM me, like I said, *eventually*! Keep in mind that if you're IMing me at like... 3 AM in the morning (That's US Central time, kiddies), you'll probably be waiting for a while. I also do have this annoying thing that cuts into my personal time called a 'social life' (jeez, I wish people would leave me alone sometimes, like they don't have better things to do than invite me to dinner), and this place that I go to and they tell me to do stuff, and then they give me money for doing it every so often... geez I feel like a prostitute. Not to mention I've been forced to take over the Capoeira class for a month or so while the main guy is off in England (heh, and you thought I was sadistic when I wrote fics)... you can see how my time is a bit limited :p
And so on, and so forth.

Reviewing Tip #471; No one wants to be your ghost writer. Read the story as it's written, and disagree with it on it's own merit, not with what you expect of it. Sad to see people literally destroy their own fics trying to appease people.

Email me or AIM me if you want, I *usually* respond... eventually... (emphesis on *eventually*)
