I'm sorry, smonster. I hope the new AD works out (along with all the other things you're doing to get better). And I hope you're feeling up to dancing again, soon.

ETA: re:
a really dysfunctional relationship with gravity.
That describes me perfectly.

You realize that every time I visit you, I'm just going to check to see if you have a concussion, right?
Oh, smonster! I need your addy, as that pretty pretty absinthe bottle from the f2f is empty, and you wanted it, right?
