I have been absent for a very long time...looks like my last discussion was from 2+ years ago. I had been going to school and working a day job...just laid off from this job a week ago....kinda sucks in a way, but I know I am better off.
Now the question I asked myself upon my return here to mylot is this: how many of my friends are still here???
If you are still here, please let me know either here or via the PM system. In the meantime, I'll be sorting out all my old IM accounts...ugh...that's gonna take days, if not weeks!!

Sorry that you got laid off. I don't think I know you (although I feel like I have been around for about 2-3 years, off and on again). There seem to be alot of people on here that come and go, but a few "regulars" who have like 10,000+ posts. Anyway, welcome back! Enjoy your stay!

I've sort of been out of commission for a few years myself. Over the years, I have been periodically lurking around, but maybe only responded to maybe one or two discussions. It does seem that my friends list did shrink a lot, because when someone cancels or gets cancelled, they also tend to vanish off that list.

Yay!! I have missed your posts and insights on mine. Thank you for stopping by Joe :D
Maybe I'll get back into the gist of real posting and give you reason to pop in more often.

Yep, it seems that way, a lot of people come in here and then they are gone. Next thing you know they are back again. I have been here at least a year, (I know cause I got paid once upon a time) and I have seen several names that are here a lot then they are gone and some that just change their name trying to fool us into saying something that maybe we shouldn't.
Anyway glad to see you back and I must be one of your friends cause I got notified that you had posted this discussion, so you must be one of my better ones, cause some of them I don't have notifiers set to on cause they are like me and speak jibberish.
Anyway welcome back and good posting.

We are the same! I was not able to check this account for a while. And I only get some notifications that my friends are starting discussions. So maybe my answer is Yes. Some are loyal to mylot. For I find this site sort of release. Being able to express your thoughts and free your mind. And wonder what other’s might be thinking. Being able to be excited if your discussion has it’s rating or not. Well, welcome back to mylot!!!

Just you logging in was a thrill for me! We both really need to get back into our profiles here. Like you, so much has changed in my life. But we should make time to exercise our brains here. Or at least I need the exercise. I miss the mental micro-nutrient rich supplementation.
