I figured this'd be a nice way for all of us to catch up with one another given that the hype machine for S+C has gotten underway. Simply put, either IC or OOC, what have you/your characters been up to?
As a lot of you already know, I moved cross-country in October right before ONIH and settled in Pasadena, California. I really enjoy my job, and stuff is starting to come together out here. I'm learning my way around, I'm adjusting to the West Coast, and I even did "The Drive," which is from SoCal to Vegas, last weekend for a mini-vacation.
With all this stuff going on, I've taken a break from e-fedding. I still enjoyed it when APW went out of business, but I've just had way too much stuff going on. Also, most of my creative juices have been flowing in another direction; as some of you know, my personal life got turned upside down earlier this year, and my private response was to start writing a book. It collected dust for a little while, but in early-November, I picked it up again and have managed to write about 25,000 words. If I can get it to 40,000 or so and refine it a bit, maybe, just maybe, I can get it published somewhere.
I'll be back to RP'ing eventually. I enjoy it way too much to give it up completely at this point, though I'll say the forced break was pretty conveniently-timed from my standpoint. I'll be back for S+C, and probably RM10 as well if Jeff is still planning to run that.
Anyway, enough about me. Your turn!

Well, let's see....
I am nearly finished semester one of a potential four to finish my undergrad at University. If all goes well, by May of 2015 I will have (finally) graduated with an honours bachelor of arts in English with a minor in History. So, basically, nothing that will help me do anything, though something that will help me not have to keep jumping from one retail job to the next. It's been pretty stressful though - I haven't taken a full course load since my first year in University, and that was back in 2006 (I took about 5 years off in the middle after my school went on strike during my second year).
Other then that, not much to report in the real world. Still working the same job (and same crazy hours when I was in school in September-November which usually equated to 12 hour days of work, commuting, lectures and other classes). Hit a bit of a rocky point in a relationship, so we'll see how that goes. Hating the cold and the snow, so that's the usual.
E-fedding wise, I have also taken a break. I was burning myself out, and decided to just step back, so the forced break came at a good time, because then I wouldn't be sitting there wishing I was actively RPing in APW lol. I'll probably throw my name into the ring for S+C and RM, though you never know. They both land during inconvenient times, schedule wise, so I might have to bow out of them. Though I don't know for sure if I'll ever pick it up again full time. It might depend on post education employment.
Congratulations on picking that book back up. I tried to write a book at one point, but realized that my writing style and ideas are better suited for short stories. One day I'll try my hand again, but I think I'd have to really think it through (the last one was ill conceived).

Knuckles if you give any freaky ass details about said Honeymoon, I will hunt you down and junk punch you..You've been warned.
As for me? I went to the Hospital for a Hernia I've had for a long while now. It's basketball size and I've been hesitant to go to the Hospital because when I did go, they said it'd have to be busted for me to get it fixed at the Emergency Room. It was hurting the other day so I said fuck it and went anyway. I learned a good deal about Hernias so it wasn't a complete loss. Didn't get fixed though but I am gonna talk to a surgeon to get that worked out soon.
For Kash? I joined a place called Rampage Wrestling because I wanted something fresh, new. I wanted a new environment because ending up where the majority of APW guys are and it'd feel too much like an APW spin off and I was ready for a new beginning. 3 Shows in and the Efed is closing already due to Staff issues and bullshit going on so I'll be a Free Agent again come this Sunday (Tomorrow) so there is that! Haha
I'm glad folks are doing well, I miss APW so much. Nothing compares to it.

OOC world: Nothing at all really apart from going to see Toseland band again on Wednesday. Had the best night of my life especially during the support act were on stage, James Toseland walked past me and actually spoke to me in my face saying hi and how I was? I swear that he recognises me now. I was like this when he spoke to me.  IC world: Mainly just been RPing in Phoenix Wrestling with Stefan joining the Necessary Evil stable and Stefan's currently in anger management as apart of his probation for a year. Tried GWE but they closed down as soon as that fed was about to begin and Rampage Wrestling looks to be on it's way out now too so I'm going to be RPing in 4CW along with Phoenix Wrestling and World Elite Wrestling with Stefan and Showtime Wrestling Academy with Jake. |

Hey everyone!
I finished up my D.Min (Doctor of Ministry) in the field or Religious Education and Communication. Looking to move soon, but don't know how soon. I'm a staffer over at PURE and I'm RPing over at 4CW with a new character. Life is good!

Same old stuff. Except I do porn on the side now. You're welcome.
7 points to the person that discovers that's not a joke.
I miss you guys.

I miss everyone here as well. I was just crying about it to my girlfriend. She said: "Wait when did APW shut down?" So I instantly thought about all the conversations since APW Shut down that she totally ignored me in...SMH...

I've been enjoying my retirement from show running and e-fedding in general. I've been reading and drawing a lot more, two hobbies I gave little to no time to when APW was in full swing. Also, I had a blast at last week's WWE Monday Night Raw in Seattle. (I even got on TV three times!)
Also, I got a new job. I'm finishing up with McDonald's and moving on to work for a tech firm called Brown Pear Solutions. They specialize in servers and networking and the like. I'm an Administrative Assistant right now, but I'm training in IT work, so I'm pretty fired up.

Been teaching full time since retiring from e-fedding. Not doing too much else of note since I've been busy with work non-stop since October.
