luv 2 follow up a "I'm back!" post with a "I'm gone!" post but...
 

I'm back! (and realized I forgot to post in the away thread and just told staff instead: reason below the "read more)
 
When I got to Europe, I got so lucky for so many reasons. The most important was that my assigned-by-the-company roommate turned out to become the absolute best friend I've ever had. He moved out and got on a plane to South Africa today, and I needed to be very present this last week. December has been a roller coaster of emotion to say the least.
 
Life moves fast, and if you don't stop and look around once in a while, you might miss it. Appreciate the good things you have now, because they won't always be there.

Nice!

Holy... So I thought following @JardyB10 would be a good idea. 100 notifications in 10 minutes later, I have to just take my hat off and applaud his ability to post whore be an interactive member of the community.😅 And also unfollow, cause I'm having a breakdown over here!

After a long week of trips back and forth to labor and delivery due to some little red flags, happy to say that my baby girl was finally born this morning! 👨‍🍼

Shoutout to the updaters for their quick work!👍

I was just going to have a nice short quick reply to @nurx podcast after I finished up for the day. 1h40m later I accidentally wrote a damn MS in his comments section. "Oh well, shit happens when you part naked." -The Board Game Clue on Skates

Big Numbers Article will be delayed until I actually have the time for it (as in, not this week). I'd rather not prioritize my next forum crusade over my finals and projects 🙃

Like this post if you want your name included in a VHL Christmas song 🎅🎄

I hope I'm not spoiling the surprise, but I'm going to guest on @JardyB10's HECKING PODCAST this week! I could ramble on for hours about anything and everything and nothing, but does anyone have any questions for me and us?

After a great deal of wondering whether I'm good enough, I got my first grad school acceptance today! Here's to many more.

After many, many, many real life years, you can finally see my name on the forums in dark mode. No more pinch zooming in to see which commissioner is tagged, or guessing based on the length of the name. It’s truly a historic day in this great forum league of ours.

Fraud is a deliberate act (or failure to act) with the intention of obtaining an unauthorized benefit, either for oneself or for the institution, by using deception or false suggestions or suppression of truth or other unethical means, which are believed and relied upon by others. 
 
Welcome to the VHL.

It's a World Cup year 👀

Triv is done. Rest easy, best people. Now it's time for my customary season long break to recreate at the optimal time and create another solid but wholly unspectacular player.
