Thank you. I've had a lot of support from Topic Cindy and others back channel. I just remember being capable of better posts. But that's life, as it goes.
You do well to flee, townspeople! I will pillage your lands and dwellings! I will burn your crops and make merry sport with your more attractive daughters! Ha ha ha! Mark my words! Ooh! Ale! I smell delicious ale!

Goodbye and Good Riddance 2013: That Was the Year That Was
Every year we watch the Charlie Brown special, do the Snoopy dance, wish everybody a Merry Thanksgivukkahmas, and thank our Secret Santas in the good riddance thread. Which is this one, in case you were wondering. Out you go, 2013!

I'm sorry you had such a rough year. Definitely don't feel self conscious about meds around here (says the girl who just had to take a sick day for brain-related stupidity), and know this is a safe place to talk.

Omg, what a downer! Today, though there was the prettiest cardinal outside my window. It's not fair to paint such a bleak picture of 2013 (although don't ever come back, 2013). Some of my meatspace friends had babies, Buffistas had babies, Matilda continues to be my fashion darling, India is walking and generally being too cute for words, Cindy gave Buffy a good home, and a few b.org cancer scares turned out alright. And Sparacus joined the board!!! I really love all of your personal triumphs and good stories. You (everyone on the board) mean so much to me. If b.org is somebody's soap opera, I felt the need for my character to have a happy wrap-up. ;)

The lost sheep grow teeth, forsake their lambs, and lie with the lions.
Much love to you, Theresa. It's good to see you again.
In other news I got a lovely anon postcard, which I am certain is from someone here! It was very well-timed.

I got an anonymous b.org Valentine's card.
I am still sending out Christmas/New Years/Whatever cards. I hope I get everyone who was part of Shenanigans, but I probably do not have addresses on some of you, so if not, consider yourself carded. I have collected quite a lot of people's address, but not everyone. who was keeping the master list of people who opted in?
I guess if anyone needs an address, I could be a resource also.

I got a lovely and fun gift in my email yesterday from Kat--a Sock Dreams gift card! I had a pretty shitty day yesterday so the timing was perfect! Thank you!!! I'm so lucky to be a part of this group.
