Yeah, I don't want to overwork myself to the point that I get sick of logging in and contributing to PC becomes a chore. I just want to enjoy it little by little -- but that doesn't excuse the fact that I do need to work relatively hard. It's satisfying though, when things work out and the topics you make, people have taken an interest to.
And yes! My gosh it does! 2012 has flown by, so fast. ):
Aww, perhaps you needed a little break. And yeah, majority of the community is really nice here, so it's always really easy to get back into the spirit.
