Not even a mention! Who else was always around to keep you on your toes? I think you'll find that cf will be a lot different for you now. I went through the same thing a year or two ago... it's nice to come back and fuck around, but it hardly becomes an addiction. If you're extremely bored (like I was this past summer) then it's nice to have something to take up your time... but it's rather easy to drop (notice that suddenly you didn't have a falcon harassing you every day?).
