Absences

Hi!
First off, I'm physically fine. I'm genuinely sorry for just disappearing. I continue to recover from double knee surgery way back in November, and I've been back to work for a while now. Between dealing with work, physical therapy, an already depressed mental state, and a disintegrating personal life, I was overwhelmed with anxiety. The thought of doing anything more than working, sleeping, and mindlessly killing things online filled me with dread, and I just retreated from all but the most vital activities. It's taken literal months to get back to a more positive mental state. Yay, modern medicine!
I want to apologize to the DMs and fellow players whose games I ghosted, and I especially want to apologize to my own players. I hate it when players and DMs vanish into the aether. I'm taking a few more weeks to finish work commitments, then I'll be on a month's vacation in mid-November. I'm hoping to slowly get back into posting on the Plane if my fellow players and DMs will have me back. If anyone's hesitant, I completely understand. Trust is earned, but I'd like to get back to something that brought me some joy.
