I feel like half of this game is doing some amateur history sleuthing, which is totally okay with me; I'm the kind of guy who reads non-fiction history books for fun. :D I did picture Shay having a wood stove. 

And sorry about the wait, but there we be! Work's been crazy, I've been up since 4 in the morning, and getting back into the swing of things. Oh man, I couldn't imagine how shitty it is to fire somebody! I've been on the receiving end twice... I would hate to be the person doing it, mostly because I know it can seriously hurt their livelihoods. I am enjoying working again, and I am so grateful there's actually people to work with! It's not just me and one other person doing like 9 sites. o_o But yeah! It's great having a routine again! I don't have the free time to roleplay like I used to, but that's okay!
