It has been quite some time since I've seen all of you last, had to take a prolonged break to get a few things in my life situated.
I'm hoping to get back into playing this consistently enough to meet all the new players, as well as catch up with old friends.
For those of you who care for a small taste, one of the things I had to work on was my new (to me) car and I'll throw some IMGUR links at the bottom of this for those of you who care to take a peek.
Updating my addons as I type this, as well as my client, so I should be on within the hour for a bit before heading to bed.
