I checked the top 20 posters today only to find that I had made 40 posts. This is a new level high - I think the previous record was 27 or some such nonsense. In any case, I went from 4819 sometime yesterday to 4865 at the end of today. I haven't seen that in years TBH - this place picks up every summer as a matter of course, but it hasn't been quite this bad for a long time, heh.

(If this gets too bad I'm going to have to stop checking as many places on BZP lol, as I only have a limited amount of time to trawl it. The blogs will go first; sorry. Priority is S&T and GD, which hasn't changed in four years, followed by Lego discussion area in general.)

It didn't help that I was gone for an entire week either (which is probably skewing my perceptions). Basically my family took a trip to go visit some relatives and go fishing. It was nice to be disconnected from the mad Internet chaos for a week, but I'm used to it by now.

I may be planning another couple of hiatuses in the future to wrap up the Categorical Greg Reference and other projects because checking BZP is starting to cut into the time I had for that, and I'm starting to get annoyed. Also, if Bionicle comes back and I can't keep up with S&T, it will become essential hardware. (Even more worrisome, the OGC topic is fast threatening to become another OGD...blargh. It's an ever-evolving problem, and my methods for dealing with it are quite slow. Too slow.)

In any event, though, I'll always be back. I've long since accepted the fact that I'm stuck here, and I'm not going anywhere for long.
