Dreadfully sorry to be gone so long. My summer was really crazy, and amidst everything, I sort of forgot about this. I'm going to be making a promo blog and working on stuff like that. I'm also going to start hunting for a graphics admin!

Wifi!

I have wifi again guys!

I can do work again, I can be on here again!

I am sincerely sorry for disappearing on you. I was in the middle of a move and could only use the tumblr app (which my phone and service provider HATES so I wasn't on here much). The SuddenLink guys came to my new apartment today and fixed it so all is beautiful now :D
