The UG@ Mod Curse Strikes Again
For people who've known me long enough or are around to hear it whenever I've said it, October 11th is my birthday. And this past birthday for me was more than a bit shitty. I got in a car accident while driving a loaner car home from the dealership where my current one, my dad's former Hyundai Sonata, is currently undergoing repairs for rusty brake and fuel lines.
I don't want anyone panicking or worrying about me, I'm fine. I got hit in the driver-side door but I still ended up walking away with no harm done to me aside from losing a little skin on my index finger's knuckle. I was able to go to work that evening too, a little shaken up and moved to tears when I saw my boss had bought me a few of the snacks I liked to get for myself there, but still fine.
The bad news with this is, well, my insurance rates are going to go up a ways and frankly this is a wake-up call. Hell, the accident happened roughly 25 years and 12 hours after I was born, and I currently still live at home with my parents, working part-time and with most of my paycheck going straight to student loans. I'm not self-sufficient and I should be working to fix that. I need a better job, or at least a second job so I'm at least making enough to support myself. I need to change this and I need as few distractions from this as possible.
Thus I am taking an indefinite hiatus from the RP, both as a player and a mod. I am not, however, saying goodbye. I'll still be around, I'll still be able to poke my head in during missions provided my schedule allows it, etc. I may even be able to run a mission now and then, but I know this is extremely wishful thinking.
I'm very sorry that this happened, and I'm sorry for the blow this is for the RP. All I can ask is that everyone just try to help Cubey, Tengu, and anyone helping them keep things going. The RP's nearing its end and it'd really suck if the first game I ever modded gave way when I had to take an extended leave.
Stay strong. If I can, I know you guys can too.
Oh, and I'll get the Casshern Sins debrief up tomorrow. Internet's been super wonky on top of everything else (fuck you, AT&T, for taking a week to send someone out here and then make it WORSE) and it's late for me. I'm not going to leave you guys hanging on that.
Steam out.
