Never thought I’d be back here

I was a user of this site way way back. Could have done the import thing, but I’m a completely different person at 41 than I was at 25. So that gets left behind.

I find myself with that returning desire to write and figured I’d see how these 30 days go here. Its mostly to clear my head and let things out.

Things have just been way too difficult since it turned 2020. I’m sure its like this for a lot of others.

This will be simple and I still don’t know tags or any of these other things. Oh well. Ill wing it. Ill make something longer next time. Its late and typing on a tablet isn’t easy and there’s probably way more errors than ill admit.

Ill give an introduction next time (even if no one reads it. Haha)

Welcome back. Other than the reference to your age, I could have written these same words, having just signed up again yesterday. Looking forward to reading whatever you wish to share.

@novawriter Thanks and me too. Look forward to hearing your stories.

Same! Totally the same! I sometimes toy with bringing back the old profile (I don’t even have that email address or anything so IDK if it’s possible anyway).  I came back to OD because OD was an old friend in a sense and I was going through some stuff and needed an outlet and I definitely wasn’t the same as back in the day. Welcome back.

@apexbloom Thanks glad to be so far. Good place to just vent.

Welcome back. Been here since 2000, minus the 4 years the site was on hiatus….

Things have definitely been borked in most people’s reality since the pandemic.

Hope to read more from you! Definitely need more people writing and using out the world here.

@thecriticsdarling Yeah I knew it had come back after hiatus but had my reservations about it. I also was a lot busier then too. Yeah. Lots of bad things went down during those times.
