Belle came back.

Then flish/fallow reappeared.

Then Kwea and Jenni.

NdRa. Allucard. Maccabeus.

Now Thor.

(and I know I'm missing at least 10 people and will feel dumb and do this [Wall Bash]

when it's pointed out -- sorry!)

Posted by Kwea (Member # 2199) on :

I never completely left, it's just that I never had enough time to post on the public computers I was using.....and Jenni works two jobs, so she never had the time, period...

Now that we have a computer at home, we can post all night long, not sleep, get sick, lose our jobs, and then post all day long (until we are evicted).......just like everyone else here!

Right BoB_Scopez, TomD, etc.???

Or find jobs that don't properly supervise us, and post at work.....

Thor is back? Wow, don't post for a whole 12 hours and you miss everything...

I'm glad to see ya, kwea.

Posted by Mabus (Member # 6320) on :

Glad someone noticed that I was gone. [Wink]

Posted by Elizabeth (Member # 5218) on :

I'm back, but no one noticed I was gone, nor have they noticed I am back!

Hi, Elizabeth. [Smile]

The same thing happens to me, often. It's kind of like hanging out at a huge party.

But welcome back!

Posted by sndrake (Member # 4941) on :

Hi Elizabeth!

It hit me recently you hadn't been around and I noticed when you resurfaced. I've been keeping my posting down a little the last few days due to some work stuff and also because I was getting very close to numero 1000 in post count and didn't have a clue what I was going to write. [Angst]

It'll be up soon - I'm thinking that some of what is in the post coming up very soon will be of interest to you. [Wink]

"So, uh, Steven, you don't know anything about the hierarchy of power structures, do you?"

Posted by ClaudiaTherese (Member # 923) on :

" 'Cause, like, I think people should just be people, you know? And not make everything into politics for no reason. I hate it when they do that."

"There's no point in making a mountain out of a molehill. The important thing is that we try to be nice to each other, and the rest will follow.

Talking about "the big picture" and "greater context" just gets everyone upset, and it doesn't mean anything anyway."

Posted by sndrake (Member # 4941) on :

[Big Grin]

Why, ClaudiaTherese, funny you should mention that. I know lots about the hierarchy of power structures - having been on both the high and low ends in different situations. [Smile]

I'm currently on the low end, by choice. [Wink]

"You know what I mean. Why are people complaining all the time? They should just shut up and stop rocking the boat. If it was important enough, the question would have already been answered.

Besides, I don't see any problem."

Posted by ClaudiaTherese (Member # 923) on :

[Wink]

Me too, dollface. I like resisting the power hierarchy, just for the sake of resisting.

To heck with bread and circuses, to heck with diamond watches -- I gots me my muleheadedness, and that's sweeter indeed.

I do not make mountains out of molehills.

I point out very politely that others are in the process of building molehills into very large mountains - which threaten avalanches on those of us who live below. [Razz]

Just tuggin' on the one with bells on. I have the same reaction as you. [Taunt]

Posted by Alucard... (Member # 4924) on :

Quite entertainingly, random factors have aligned in our favor. Some call it luck, others fate. I simply follow the voice inside this head of mine and things usually work out. Although the tinnutis I have been struggling with might make things a bit cloudy at times...

As far as polarity, I must agree. Those who study such things have claimed that the poles of the Earth have changed at least 2 or 3 times in our history as a planet, and Hatrack seems just as unpredictable!

Posted by rivka (Member # 4859) on :

Ooops! Sorry, Elizabeth! [Blushing]

I actually had noticed you were back -- I knew I would leave someone out accidentally. [Dont Know]

Posted by Elizabeth (Member # 5218) on :

No worries! I sort of slipped out the back door, not for any reason. Actually, school started up, that was it. (duh)
I did a couple of quick lurk-bys in the past few months, but was dragged in for good again by Mister ScoPez's' allusion to a certain thread: the DKW thread. Then, there was the lyrics game thread...the one line description thread...something about food...I was hooked again!

Just shoot me now . . .

Posted by pooka (Member # 5003) on :

flish is back? Do you mean fil/skillery? Because fil and filleted (flish) were different folks. Which is probably why the name change. And skillery is much more than not someone else.

Posted by rivka (Member # 4859) on :

flish = fallow

Posted by fallow (Member # 6268) on :

pooka,

good to see you.

filleted->flish->fallow (me)

Thanks Pooka, that was sweet.

No, I'm just me, and I'm not anybody else. If you looked at some of my early posts, you would realize that I'm not forum-savvy at all.

I'm not Punxsutawney Phil either, although ShadowMaker might be.

Posted by Noemon (Member # 1115) on :

Actually, I'm pretty sure I started a "where's Elizabeth" thread awhile back, and I was definitely glad to see you return. Remember, what gets posted is just the tip of the iceburg in terms of what people are thinking.

Posted by PSI Teleport (Member # 5545) on :

Elizabeth, I knew you were gone/back, but I was so new when you left that I didn't feel like it was my place to say anything about it, and I figured I didn't know what I was talking about anyway. Or maybe I left before you did, I can't really remember.

Posted by UofUlawguy (Member # 5492) on :

I'm finally back.

Okay, so maybe the weekend only FELT that long.

Posted by pooka (Member # 5003) on :

[ROFL]

Still, though, it's not like all these folks are aligned, is it?

Posted by rivka (Member # 4859) on :

Sure they are, pooka. They're all pointing back toward Hatrack. As they should be. [Big Grin]

Posted by Elizabeth (Member # 5218) on :

Thanks, Noemon and PSI T. That really means a lot. I didn't really mean that post to sound like a pity party invitation, it was more of a smarty-pants comment, but those never quite come through. I have actually been TRYING to do writing when I get on the computer, or job search stuff, but I get sucked into this Procrastinator's Dream.
But it means a lot, thanks.

Posted by Ryuko (Member # 5125) on :

You should do what I did, Elizabeth, and throw your network cable away away!! My productivity went up at least a hundred percent. But I miss Hatrack... [Frown]

Posted by rivka (Member # 4859) on :

Ryuko visited! [Smile]

Posted by eslaine (Member # 5433) on :

Hatrack misses Ryuko.

Posted by aspectre (Member # 2222) on :

Anybody know what happened to enjeeo?

Posted by Belle (Member # 2314) on :

How sweet!

I can't believe I got mentioned in the post. [Smile]

I never left, nor did I say I was leaving for good (at least that time [Razz]

) I just needed some time to reassert some priorities.

[Smile]

I love hatrack. [Smile]

Posted by Elizabeth (Member # 5218) on :

You are right, Ryuko, yet here I am. After today's work day, however, I have new impetus to get my resume out there NOW.

Posted by Richard Berg (Member # 133) on :

Now JohnKeats is back, too. Me - I'm no regular, but sources show me delurked off the port bow.

I don't recommend drinking Absolut neat. It's not a pretty sight.

Belle came back.

Oh my God! Belle left?

When I think of Hatrack in the middle of the day (which I do no matter how much medication I take) for no reason at all...I think BELLE. I need to stop posting and do some reading.

No one notices when I leave but dear sweet Vana.

Love that girl.

edited because I just read Belle's post a few posts up from mine. Clarification is good.

And now Kayla is back! [Big Grin]

Posted by Noemon (Member # 1115) on :

Isn't it cool? I hope she stays!

Posted by rivka (Member # 4859) on :

Very! [Big Grin]

And agreed!

Posted by Hobbes (Member # 433) on :

If the polority reverses, doesn't that mean that all of us who stayed now have to leave? [Frown]

Hobbes

Posted by eslaine (Member # 5433) on :

Silly Tiger!

Posted by Hobbes (Member # 433) on :

Trix are for kids!

Hobbes [Smile]

Posted by rivka (Member # 4859) on :

No, Hobbes! It's the aura affect. [Big Grin]

We're close enough that our polarity simply changed along with Hatrack as a whole.

Posted by Hobbes (Member # 433) on :

That's lucky, especially for the rest of you. Because if I leave, I'm taking Annie with me. [Cool]

Hobbes

Posted by rivka (Member # 4859) on :

[No No]

Neither of you is permitted to go!

Posted by Raia (Member # 4700) on :

Hear, hear. What rivka said! [No No]

Posted by ClaudiaTherese (Member # 923) on :

And AndrewR is posting again.

Woo-hoo!

Posted by Kwea (Member # 2199) on :

Don't worry, I'm pretty sure Hatrack is bi.......

Bi-polar, I mean...
