Thanks, Burrell! We do have fun and this was a good week.

Hey, long time no see!
I'm glad to see the deadline for this was extended. I've been in such deep cover not-even-lurking mode that I forgot all about the October delurking event.
Why I've dropped out of sight: started a new job last November that takes a leetle bit more of my time than the old one. Moved across the hall in my division where previously I'd been one of the many program associate worker drones and over into the Adult Career and Special Student Services office as the head of the customer service staff and manager of office operations. Lots more duties as a supervisor, and the customer service contact (which I loathe, but do it because it's my job), really wipes me out at the end of the day. I tend to lurk in Fan Fiction and a few of the TV threads, when I do lurk.
I also acquired a roommate last year (my best friend of 28 years), so I spend a lot more time with her, watching TV and going on long weekend walks to stay fit. I'm not on the internet much at all anymore. I hang out on tumblr to some moderate degree and I remember to check LJ/DW about once every two weeks.
Still, I think of you all and try to keep an eye on Beep Me and Press so I keep abreast of all the big things in all ya all's lives. Know that the ~ma is always flowing and I cherish you all as part of my life for the past 11 years. All hail the Buffistas!

We won’t stop until everyone is gay.
Hi Sail! Glad to hear things are going well. I'm always impressed by your walking mileage on fb.

Yes, Sail -- glad life is treating you OK!

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.
Hi, Sail! Good to see your pixels here again!

Our wings are not tired.

I am SailAweigh! (alas I did not get her pretty hair)
Buried in work, which beats not having work, but still overwhelming.
Still about the same in my life. Both sons living at home. Trying to get them more involved in the business to lift some of my burden. We need to give some thought to moving because the house I have been in is supposed to be auctioned off early next year. I still have to finish and sell my house. So many things up in the air.
I'm considering having a big bash here for my 60th, yes I did say 60th birthday in February. It is such a nice time to visit Florida. Don't cha think?

It is an excellent time to visit FL.

I think February would be the perfect time to visit Florida!

I'm about 98.9% ready to do it. The only hesitation is that I don't know where I will be living. But ya know, I'll be living somewhere, and air mattresses can be used for visitors in a pinch. February is usually a great time for pitching a tent. I do need to get the focus back on selling the house and getting another one thing though.
