That does seem like a turning point. :oops:

But I went out to Rochester, yesterday, to catch a performance by Tempest, so I wasn't on Facebook all day, either.

The lull here contrasts with a rare uptick in activity today on the PhoenixBored.

Hmmmm?

The most recent post I see on the PhoenixBored is from last August.

And there's nothing new in the GC except the birthday auto-announcements.

Probably the first thing I've added to my Bored archive in several years, too....

Yahoo has "recycled my account". Their words. Due to inactivity. Is this worth signing up with them again for?

Nobody is posting anything there, anymore, except for today's rare exception of beast uploading some file.

But maybe you and I like ghost towns. :wink:

There weren't posting lulls like this even when the Bored was having server meltdown issues a while back....

I've just been overly busy, getting an elderly family friend into long term care, and also trying to bone up to apply for a higher position, doing mostly what I do now, but in more depth, and not just over the phone. The manager of our area really wants me to do well on the test, so she has been giving me files that are already complete, so I can follow the process.

As soon as they lift the hiring freeze, they will post the position, and I'll need all the white glares..
