Felicitations, Kate! And what a lucky little bundle, to be arriving into such a family!
Early: So is it still her room when it's empty? Does the room, the thing, have purpose? Or do we -- what's the word? Simon: I really can't help you. Early: The plan is to take your sister. Get the reward, which is substantial. 'Imbue.' That's the word.

Goodbye and Good Riddance 2014: so long, farewell, auf wiedersehen, good bye...
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.
Buh bye, 2014.

See? I gave everybody here an opportunity to tell me what a bad person I am and nobody did, because I fuckin' rule.

Why did Darth Vader cross the road? To get to the Dark Side!
Congrats Kate!

"Faded like the lilac, he thought."
Aww, yay, Kate!

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration
Yay Kate!

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.
Congratulations, Kate!

Our wings are not tired.
Awesome news, Kate! Way to contribute to Buffista World Domination! Rose will adore having a baby sibling.

Compassionately intolerant
Congrats, Kate!
So, I woke up with a cold this morning but was still able to gut it out and complete my year-end cleaning ritual.
Well, for all values of 'complete' that include the no-dirty dishes, laundry or rubbish left in the house rule being stretched to the last two loads of laundry being in the machines...and the dishwasher not being totally finished.
I did, however, wash Cagney and myself, stuff the fridge with good food and push everything that needs sorting/mending/ending into one room.
The next four days will be a leisurely stroll through filing, donating and organizing. I'm stoked!
2014 was a very good year for me. I had no major illnesses, Cagney was healthy, I took great strides toward healing my relationship with money, I loved my work and my friends and significantly shifted my attitude and perspective toward greater happiness than I've ever known.
My deepest wish is for all of you to find 2015 your happiest and healthiest year yet. Much love!

It's been a good year for me, overall. The highlight, of course, was a long-anticipated trip to Ireland with my good friend Katie. It was wonderful and I'm glad we chose to drive everywhere; despite getting lost a couple times, we saw lovely things we'd never have found riding a train. I'd go back to Ireland in a heartbeat, and someday I will! Alas, not long after returning from that trip, I slipped into a rather serious depression. After a few months I realized how bad it was getting and found a new therapist and a new doctor, and after some adventures with new meds, I've finally found an antidepressant that works for me. I'm still climbing out of it, and still dealing with some of the things I let slide during it, but I almost feel back to normal now. Normal for me, anyway. I'm looking forward to a new year in which I might actually keep some of those old resolutions for a change. Except the one about jogging. That's probably never gonna happen.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.
LUCKY FUTURE KATE BABY!
