Actually, Don was either wrong or fibbing (which is far more likely given his chosen profession) when he said that line. Nostalgia translated is the 'ache to return home.'

After a long hiatus, that's what I've done the last few days; going back and reading in the archives the efforts of myself and many talented others who helped make my time in the Parodyverse so enjoyable. This place was a great source or creativity and camaraderie for me throughout the years. It's hard to think of a hobby that I had more passion for.

Of course, passion isn't always a good thing. I said and did a lot of stupid, childish things to people who did not deserve them. I behaved embarrassingly. Even now, years later, perusing the old posts and spotting threads where I was especially twattish, those self-inflicted 'old wounds' still sting.

To those people I maligned during my time here, I apologize. To everyone, I hope your lives are going well, and at least as entertaining as the ones we created here in this amazing world of art.
