Bev! It's lovely to see your pixels....

Congrats on finishing the rough draft, Empress. Sleep well.

Woo hoo, billytea and wallybee!

Hi Raq. It seems like we made it through the day.

---

She said yes.

Assuming this means what such things generally mean: OMG!! Congrats!

---

Belated happy birthdays to Trudy and Raptorgirl!

Congratulations to billytea and the Wallybee!

vw, I hope things seem better in the morning, after things have had time to settle.

---

Whooooooot billytea. So damned happy for you both.

Ouch, Kristin. I hope you feel better soon.

Tep, the tat is lovely!

Also, slightly inappropriate pictures of my big cat and someone you all might recognize

Bwah! And rocking hair, lisah!

Did I welcome SCube? Welcome. I have been skimmy while out but am glad you are here and am amused by your tag.

I am home. Kittenish is going to need to stay in the cattery at the hospital until her thyroid tests come back, likely Wednesday. But I am going to go and visit her tomorrow. I hope that their playroom is open tomorrow so I can go and hang out in there with her for an hour or eleventy billion.

Puppycat is still twitchy and needy but remarkably goldfish brained so I expect she'll calm down soon. But she really does seem a little discombobulated without Kittenish here. She's chattering at the wall right now. And there's not even a spider in sight. Freak.

Trip to San Diego was good. Might have healed some family crap with my parents hopefully. My neicelet is back and I am still over the moon about that. And I am going to be a very good auntie by sending her postcards, not letters, so her parents can easily see what I am saying without appearing not to trust me or her or whatever. Go me, eh?

Met a cute boy at the airport. Chattered before the flight and after waiting for our luggage. And did I ask for his number or get his name? No. Because I am a dolt. Did I mention he was cute? And nameless and phone numberless. Because I am a dolt.

Best wishes to Kittenish, Cass, and I'm so relieved you're back in touch with your niecelet.

Oh, Bev. Thank you so much. I am so much more relieved than I can even say that the niecelet is back from Vermont and that I can be in touch with her again. She knew that at least some of my mail was blocked and was furious, apparently. And I am so taking all the ~ma I can for Kittenish. I just need her to feel better and come home soon.

How are you doing, sweetie? You have been in my thoughts a lot. It's horrible to be having such conflict with my family when we should be grateful we are just all here and can be with each other.

continued kitty-ma for Cass and Kittenish

Thank you. She just has to get better.

Me sleepy. Half unpacked, paid much attention to the Puppycat, had a hair of the dog glass of wine (Whoa, me and the ex and wife really leads to the late nights with more wine than we should drink. But it's fab conversation.), gronky at flights that get me home after midnight but it was better than leaving at 7 a.m...

I missed me Bitches!

eta: Anne, this seems a not good hour for you to be awake. Okay?

---

Oh, congratulations, billytea! This is magnificent news.

And Teppy, your tattoo is lovely. Excellent choice.

---

I don't know why I'm up. It's not insomnia, I don't think. I just woke up early, and don't feel tired at all. I have a feeling that I'll be paying for it later, though.

Thanks for the update on Kittenish and niecelet, by the way. I'm glad you're back in communication with her.

---

Hi Anne! It's been awhile since I've seen you--how are you doing?

---

Congrats billytea! And Happy Birthday P-C!

---

I'm doing okay. Work's a bit busy, and I'm still getting settled into my new (old) city a year after the move. My social life has been a little bit slow to get off the ground, but then again, I've been enjoying the quiet a bit too much to do anything about it.

---

I like enjoying the quiet.

I am about to crash into sleep but having a quiet home for the past couple of hours has been nice so I haven't worried about staying up a little too late tonight.

Thanks for the update on Kittenish and niecelet, by the way. I'm glad you're back in communication with her.

I am so thrilled about my neicelet that I just don't have the words to explain it. I was so worried about her. I still am in ways but she seems so much better now.

It's sad but I really started feeling much less depressed after I saw her and talked to her a bit.

Also I got taquitos before I caught my plane home. Mmmm, taquitos. They were heavenly crunchy deliciousness.

Now to sleep with me. It's not insomnia, it is just trying to unwind after getting home. And now Cass sleeps.
