Up until now, my life has been more-or-less equally devoted to two things: music and coaching gymnastics. I was fortunate enough to have time for both.
This past weekend, however, I got a promotion; I am now head coach at my gym. This is my dream job; however, it leaves me very little time to devote to music, and when you get down to it, music is a mere hobby for me, while coaching is the career I've wanted since I was in elementary school.
So I'm pretty much backing out of the OCR community. I may still pop in from time to time to say hi or to perhaps to take a few potshots at relyance or gario on PP&R, and I'm hoping I'll still be able to make it to MAGfest, but I believe my days of extensive involvement with this community are over for the forseeable future.
It's been a pleasure this community has introduced me to many very close friends, and I've had some truly amazing experiences. Rather than simply pulling a gray lightning and vanishing entirely, I thought I owed it to you all to say how much this community has meant to me and how much I love it here.
Peace.
