*waves Hello!*
Antimony:
Hi there folks.
Gosh, it's been yeeeeears!
I lurked as a guest for the last few days and read some very enjoyable threads. I can't wait to start replying. I'll try to control myself and not necro-rez any two year old threads, hehehe.
Mego was nice enough to set me up so I could post and say "Hello!" to everyone.
HELLO EVERYONE!
I feel like I've already caught up since I've been reading for the last few days.
I see Janey is married and has a lovely daughter.
Big Ed has three grandchildren now.
Bloom has an S.O.
Mego has a cute niece.
Charles still writes incredibly long posts which are enjoyable to read.
And Old Bald Angus is still old and bald and Angus.
It's great to read everyone again.
As for me...
I was doing some private tutoring and homeschooling for some friends.
Then I went back to college to add another teaching certification in Mathematics.
Some school administrator friends of mine convinced me to start teaching middle school math even though I didn't have my complete certification yet.
That lasted two years. They wanted me to teach pre-Algebra to kids that couldn't add, subtract, multiply, or divide.
A World History position opened at the high school, so I grabbed it.
We're reviewing for the final exams which are next week.
I spent the year lecturing about pre-historic pre-humans, Mesopotamia, Egypt, Ancient Greece, Rome, Byzantium, the Middle Ages, the Crusades, the Renaissance, the French Revolution, and Napoleon.
I'm looking forward to revising my notes over the summer and adding even more multi-media, which gives me excuses to show scenes from historical movies in class and discuss their accuracies and inaccuracies.
weeeeee!
Oh, and I just started playing Age of Conan and I really dig it. The dialog from the quests is so fun (and chock fulla vivid profanity) that I don't just click through it.
And I play Two Worlds, which is just GORGEOUS.
So that's what's up with me.
How the heck are you guys?!?!?
Big Ed:
Holy Crap, look what the cat drug in!!! :o
I've often wondered what happened to all the old gang, it's nice to see one of the good ones show back up.
Welcome kiddo, it's good to have you back.
Edit: I actually have 4 grandkids, three official and one brother from another mother type thing.
Charles B Naumann:
Good to hear from you again!
We are doing well, my oldest son starts high-school this fall... Seems like just yesterday I was reading Dr. Suess to him at bedtime.

Bloom:
Wow, it's been a long time. Good to see you again!
As you said, I've got an SO, and maybe I've grown up a bit in the last few years. I can still get up on my high horse with the best of 'em, and be a bit of a pompous ass at times, but I'm getting better at not doing it as frequently. ;)
Btw, how many years has it been since Sunsword's forums? It has to have been a lot more than just a couple, right? And who else are we missing, apart from everyone's favorite scandinavian boy wonder (Echnin - who I think is a member of these boards, but doesn't post)?
Anyway, looking forward to seeing you around, Anti. ;D
Janey:
WB Antimony. Glad to hear you're doing so well. :)
