Those of you who have experienced it know exactly what I mean. My life is a mess right now, I need to take care of some stuff, and I can't spend all the time I'd like on EfU. Add to that the fact that I just lost my main character, and that my new concept didn't quite pan out as I expected, and you have the makings of a pretty monumental burnout.

My hope is to be able to take a break from EfU, to clear my head, fix things IRL and then come back with a fresh mind, filled with new ideas. I think two weeks will be enough time, though I may extend that as I see fit. If I leave permanently, I'll let everyone know, but I wouldn't worry much. That isn't my intention, and it won't happen unless I absolutely cannot come up with a concept I truly care/feel good about. We'll see, we'll see.

See you all in two weeks. I'll drop by IRC now and then to check on everyone, and to have the usual pointless chat. Much love, take care, be good, all that.

I know the feeling. I'm something of an all-or-nothing person, myself, so I feel bad if I can't fulfill satisfactorily all the obligations I've taken to myself. It always ends up in having taken too big a bite of everything. Then I wonder what the hell I've been spending my time on.

Don't even check the forums or chat, Kia, or you'll get dragged back in. That's a necessary pre-emptive measure for taking a break!

Your friendly neighborhood shrink, Anthee

<3<3<3 Enjoy your time off, K-Dawg.

Catcha, Kiaring.

You kicked me. I'm not talking to you, Kiaring.

The trick to life, the universe and everything is indifference. If you don't care, you can't feel bad! 8)

Um, yeah...so enjoy your break or permanent break Kiaring, I hope you have fun

Man, now I feel bad. :(

Thanks for reminding me Kiaring! I think most of us have experienced this one time or another. Good luck with that, see you on the flipside.

Decided to cut my leave of absence short, as I'm already getting that irreprehensible bug to return, and have had a few decent character ideas. You might see me in game soon enough!

Good to be around.

get back to work

Kiaring Decided to cut my leave of absence short.

I just noticed you were back. Let me hyst make sure I've got this straight...

Morgan's death, marking the beginning of the hiatus, happened about 36 hours before I left home for a two week vacation.

I'm still four days off from returning and you're back, having been gone a grand total of 7 days with my calculations. :roll:

Anyways, welcome home. :)

Glad you're back. :)
