As you all may have noticed, my constant happy presence on IRC has been significantly decreased as of late - and yes, I know you have all missed me. I recently moved and the network at my new house hates both IRC and AIM, it subjects me to disconnects every 5-10 minutes, which makes IRC basically useless to me.

I have basically exhausted all the troubleshooting options I've been able to find, so my next step is consulting a professional - luckily I know a couple who won't charge me, it's just a matter of getting them to do it sooner rather than later. Hopefully they will be able to remedy my problem. (BTW - if any of you are network professionals, feel free to help me!)

As always I am available via email and I have been receiving and responding to issues solely from my inbox for the past several weeks. So if you have anything that needs my attention please email it to me, and hopefully my always-cheery presence will be back on IRC regularly very soon. Sorry for the inconvenience.
