I've been away for such a long time; back in January, my mate of almost a year left me, and then in June, my IMVU daughter, who was like a daughter to me in real life as well, passed away. On top of all of that, my work load and hours have been increasing. Understandably, I haven't felt like visiting places like this for quite a while. Now, I'm back, and am eager to see what's changed in my absence.
