I didn't mean to kill the delurking thread! I swear!
Buffy: A Guide, but no water or food. So it leads me to the sacred place and then a week later it leads you to my bleached bones? Giles: Buffy, really. It takes more than a week to bleach bones.

How are you me? You need to stop that. Only I can be me. ~Kara
Nice to see the delurkers and the regulars. I'm not in any thread anymore, wish I could hang out in Bitches, at least, but I keep up in press and beep me when I can.
Aidan is now mad into Zelda: Ocarina of Time and Zelda:Majora's Mask, and still drawing so much we can't keep him in paper. Kara is back into Pokemon, loves youtube with all the passion of her overly-emotional heart, also draws all the time, makes very odd doll clothes, mostly out of rags, tape, and facial tissues, has been diagnosed with ADHD and anxiety; has threatened to kill herself a couple of times, but swears she was just using hyperbole. Everyone's keeping an eye on her, of course. Greg was diagnosed with Graves' Disease (thyroid thing) but he seems to have it under control now, except that he's exhausted all the time. DP, the small press I started in 2007 with all the hope in my giddy, creative heart, is in the process of being shut down this month, and I'm a lot less giddy and/or creative. We lost the house, but live in a very nice little apartment, right next door to a great park, and the apt. costs much less to heat and light.
My health is gone, and I've used up my mid-day hour of being upright catching up on this thread and posting this, but I'll have another hour, maybe two, when the kids get home. I don't do web design, editing, or anything else anymore. I can't walk much anymore, and I'm having some scary memory lapses we're monitoring. I can't think clearly most days. So sorry to be depressing and random.
Here's hoping 2012 is much, much better for everyone, even those of you with only good news to share. I'll try to pop in again. I miss you guys.

Deena! So lovely to see you here.
Connie mentioned you were unwell and I was thinking of you. Sending you all the health-ma I can for your family.
I hope the universe sends you good news of your own.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration
Deena! I'm sorry for all the bad stuff you are dealing with, but so glad to see you.
