but you have been here about 3 times as long as me.
and in the days when you had to go "i want to go on the internet ... is anyone on the phone? no? ok ... lets dial up. fuck, its engaged, retry, retry, retry, yes, connected, but bugger its stalled, disconnect, try again, engaged, retry, retry, yay! lets go to delphi, wait, wait, wait, login, wait, wait, wait, go to NPCFF, wait, wait, wait, click thread, wait, wait, wait,
you get the idea.
it was lots easier to leave when that was the case.
now that i think about it, before i had broadband at home, i used to not check in for weeks on end over uni holidays, because it was such a faff. i'd not be surpised if i went months without posting over the first uni summer holiday. if i did post, it'd have been a couple a week type thing.
now ... tell me i am all wrong and you disappeared for a year during uni or something :P
