alright.  I died.  But I'm coming back to life.  I do taxes for a living and this year was particularly bad.  For three months straight I worked 12-14 hr days, no days off.  When it was over I took a break from everything.  I am going to bring this chapter of the story to a close and begin a new one hopefully by the weekend.  I'm training my body to be back up at 4am so that usually gives me an hr a day to write. 

I need to know a couple things.

1.) who is still here (orcpunx I know you are)?  I'll be private messaging you with changes to your characters as we "level up" to begin our new chapter.  
2.) does anyone want to post anything before I do a wrap up/chapter close?

Again I apologize for my extended absence.  I foolishly thought I could write during tax season.  Im lucky I had time to eat and sleep.  Also updated my character sheet in the "characters" section.
