Sweet Little Bad Girl: Too long

Too long

Real Life has dealt me probably the worst hand yet. All I can say is I'm not happy to have to leave Scotland, my boyfriend and all our friends and the familiar places behind. And I'm really lucky my parents were willing to take me in while I try to restart my life. The last month or so killed a lot of my actual playing time, and then there were a couple weeks wherein my PC was in separate components waiting to be installed in a new case in the US.

It's been hellish. At least Eve looks pretty, and I was able to get my PC together in time for the first Hellcats bomber roam.

Picture time! I'm taking sov map pictures every day to track the changes, so for right now, you get a shot of Shae's homeworld. I was kind of paranoid that it'd turn out to be an inhospitable lump of rock in the new planetary graphics, and I was so incredibly happy to see that it's still a pretty, temperate world with cities.

Welcome back Shae. Sorry to hear you did get the raw deal you were hoping would not eventuate.

We did miss you and your stories though. It was nice to meet you at FF. Keep smiling (and keep posting).

I feel out of the loop so I'm not sure the events that led to this but I hope everything works out!

I think I know how that feels. It sucks today, bigtime... but RL has a way of betting better. Just hang in there! *hugs*

RL sucks... (have been having a bit of it myself, but I'm guessing nothing like you have).

Welcome back, and as others have said, if there is anyway I can offer you a hand let me know...

Welcome back Shae. We miss you and it was a tough break that's for sure. Thanks for the banner by the way; I need to resize it but it looks very posh!!!! Did the HC only Bomber roam work by the way?

I agree to all "RL sucks" comments...at least some other things don't suck too much.

Welcome back Shae, and I hope all goes well :)

Thanks for the support, guys. My current plans are to get back on my feet by starting a design business and taking a few courses that I'll need to get the kind of job I want back in the UK, and keep trying. I'm going to be strongly regulating my gaming time because of it -- don't expect to see me on until evenings, US-time, during the week. In the end, I hope to be able to get home by May or June at the latest.

The bomber roam went alright. Rather quiet and low-key, but since it was our first such roam, we learned a lot from the experience. And we did land a kill but that only happened once we had Sard along playing bait for us; before that, we had a hard time getting anyone who wanted to try for Avid's tackler ship.

Ye, life can be a bitch but it's about million times more real and important than Eve.
Get Yourself together, sort out Your real thing and everything will turn for better.

I don't want too see You online too much :)

Good luck all the way.
