Yes, I have returned after a long time away. Well, sorta long. I've been lurking and playing for a while, but I haven't been posting. I think it was somewhat the new points system, somewhat the influx of funnier people than I, and somewhat things new and shiny.

But, the lure of JTRH was too much. I am back, for a while at least.

Status update on my life: Going crazy over a math takehome exam currently (no outside help allowed)
Going to go to Germany over the summer (posting will again be limited)
Going to take a while to get back into the swing of things here.
Going to use a bunch of emoticons now

Because I like that last one for some weird reason.

Going to possibly enter the story contest...if I have time around exams and whatnot.

Going to stop typing and have ye elder members welcome me back.

Hey! Welcome back! I know exactly how it feels to come back from a long hiatus. I guess it's true what they say, once a DROD junkie, always a DROD junkie. How long have you been gone for, exactly?

I already welcomed you back! Don't get greedy!

I'm just surprised Erik didn't announce the Return of Zex in the latest News post.

Game on,

I think I've been gone for...a year? That seems about right...maybe a bit more.

And I think Erik (almost misspelled it! Been so long...) did sorta welcome me back with the link to said thread.

But, for now, I have exhausted myself thinking about probability spaces and convolutions and homomorphic functions on G-invariant measures. Blech.

It's Zex! He's back! Woohoo for the lack of a Zex-sized hole!

Now I can finally ask him who the heck Teesa is.

Zex, I've been wondering for a while now: who the heck is Teesa?

Maybe Teesa took away the Tim-sized hole.

W00T for Zex!

I was wondering when you would finally show up.

When I last saw you, I was but a 'wee goblin. Nice to have you back, though. It t'was about time for you to rejoin the cult.

Teesa is a good friend from high school, who gave that quote one night when we were doing...something. I forget what, but it probably involved theater in some regard. Her real name is Teresa, but everybody ignores the r.

Nay rowrow, Teesa did not take away the Tim-sized hole. That would be my parents.

Thanks for the welcome-backs, guys. It's good to feel like I'm back again.
