Who do you miss and why? (Your top three)
Oh, I'm not dead. Not yet anyway. We will see what happens by the time graduate school finishes in December. I've never had stats research and it's a nightmare that's been the death of at least a dozen *formerly* coppery-red hair strands already.
Anyway, my absence here though unintentional, has been because of many things. I needed a series of dental surgeries last fall and early in Jan. We had some family and friends pass last fall too, and my laptop did as well. The brighter side is that the laptop has been replaced, and I no longer need to dial up, so I will probably be in and out more often as time allows - and that's the key. It is true that in January I got engaged, and if all goes well, the wedding will be in June of '07. I have also been job hunting, with one offer already on the table for fall, as well as working on starting my own small business. But, I am also taking graduate classes for my master's degree in elementary education, helping my folks to remodel our house, as well as trying to train a three year old filly.
So life got to be unexpectedly very busy Sassy. :\ I'm still here though- of all the different TF websites out there that I've seen, I like the TFA the best and have ever since I found it. It'd be very difficult to leave the folks here. I miss several people too - it's been ages since I spoke with Jonin, Garand or Jim, and Windy was a real hoot. There are still laughs from time to time about Addl and his police photo (speeding picture) and afro-ed muppets between my fiance' and myself. The Archive is a great place on the whole, with loads of fun people and lots to see and do. At the moment, I just don't have time to do the things I used to be able to do in the past so easily, but I don't intend to disappear altogether. I'm still planning on playing in the rpg and reading the forums.
Oh and... what Sixswitch said.

Actually, it ain't morse code... though I think I did it wrong. Might have been like this:

This is my signature. My wasted space. My little corner. You can't have it. It's mine. I can write whatever I want. And I have!

Frustrate? Nah. I didn't mind at all... in fact, I'm slightly disappointed that you knew what it was. Killjoy.
Alright, okay. Gods. I think it's time to get this train wreck back on topic.
From here, I also miss Windy. Windy was cool.
On another note, I can't help but wonder what's happened to people when they drift away from the board...

deloreansetup. That guy was funny as hell. I loved the rant he went off on at Addl, for opening a MISB G1 Blitzwing. Genius.
Windy of course.
And Sixy. I miss her unique form of blondness and her Peter Andre fancying.
Ah, them was the days.

I found God. Then I lost him. He'll probably turn up down the back of the sofa someday.

Mirage, Addl, Sixy, Jetfire, Compy etc. Most of the people who I chatted to back when I joined have dissapeared.
Getaway the houdini of the transformers universe nobody can defeat him......except Rodimus Prime, Cyclonus, Starscream, Deathbringer, Thunderwing, Dreadwing........

I don't think I've ever paid enough attention (or made enough 'noise') outside of the AWF forum to say I actually miss anyone.
If I'm gonna go with three I know, then it's Windy (Auntie Slag?), Mirage and... nope. Drawing a blank. The list ends at two.
