As the start of my fall semester fast approaches, I'm forced to confront the reality that it's going to be very rough. I may only be taking twelve credits, but somewhere between half and all of them are pretty much guaranteed to be nasty. On top of that, I'm auditing another four-credit course that's going to eat up a lot of out-of-class time and trying to piece together the disparate parts of a graduate school application(s). This means putting together a portfolio, studying for the GRE, squeezing letters of recommendation out of people, and trying to figure out what I have to do with my statement of intent to make it glow with the sparkly light of heaven.
In short, I'm not going to be on all that much. My semester will require me to regulate my out-of-class time a lot more than ever before, which means cracking down on things that tend to eat up said time. Expect not to see me on IRC. except in the late evening of American time, if at all. If you see me on at any other time, bug me about it.
I am not leaving, quitting, retiring, or any of that. I will do that when the game stops being interesting and stops containing people I care about, and I don't see any sign of either happening anytime soon. I will still be Doing Things and answering questions, albeit with most of my characters idle (Those few that know about that one other thing....yeah, that won't be idling, but it's fairly low-maintenance). I will not be available for raids.
Thank you for your patience. I know many of you are in the same situation.
