Verizon increased my download speed by .4 mps and decreased my upload speed. :wacko:

I've gone off on a journey to be a moderator at another forum, but this place will forever remain home for me~

Yeah, since A&B are now in YWT. I pay more attention to Facebook and twitter now, since my blog isnt up-to-date.

* Anistorm copies her twitter bio to her blog bio.
