Ditto on the above posts. Realistically taking a 90 day break after posting almost continuously since Dec 2002 doesn't qualify as letting OCF down. In academic circles, you would be a Poster Emeritus, i.e., someone who has earned full retirement for his efforts, but still has much to contribute just on a different less structured or regular schedule.
Hope this Holiday season goes better for you than this past year sounds.
