Why isn't everyone pelting me with JOY, dammit? - Zenkitty

Dang. The passage of time has no respect for my feelings.

True dat.

Not so nice is that I'm about to ruin a Friday morning for a bunch of people because of a series of unfortunate events and an upset foreign government. - shrift

Popping in very quickly with a request (that I will cross-post with Tech): Facebook has disabled my account and given me 30 days to request a review. Does anyone have tips or tricks to get it back? Thanks.

the hardest to learn / was the least complicated

I think RLiz was even younger! And now she has kids!!

She does? (We aren't friends on FB -- not through any kind of animosity; just not staying in touch over time). That's awesome!

"There are few hours in life more agreeable than the hour dedicated to the ceremony known as afternoon tea."

The passage of time freaks me out: Tickybox turns SIXTEEN today.

Nope. I refuse to believe this.

That hit like a ton of bricks, along with Cashmere's Owen turning 17, two days ago.

Or this.

Our wings are not tired.

Oh no!! I have no idea, Maria, but that's crazy.

Both Tickybox and Owen birthdays have me shaking my head despite my youngest being a father. Time, she does fly.

Speaking of birthdays, the lovey Nilly sent me her master list of birthdays and anniversaries and so forth to keep up since she hasn't been able to do so. I meant to put something in Press because it is somewhat out of date, but the Tickybox and Owen birthdays were there, as well as some anniversary dates. I've only sent birthday wishes to active Buffistas, and not the kids. Anyway, I'll put something in Press later.

Wait, what now? I have pictures of him as a wee tiny toddler! The first time I met Cashmere in person, she was quite pregnant with him. That could NOT have been 17 years ago. Good Lord.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

I think RLiz was even younger! And now she has kids!!

Holy shit.

You've got friends to have good times with. When you need to share the trauma of a badly-written book with someone, that's when you go to family.

dcp: I have! I need a Sprocket!

Maria, I have no idea how to fix it, but I wish you luck?

People, people - Ken is 33. Laura, I don't know if I'm still on any lists, but I'll update when it hits Press.

Fandom means never having to say "But where would I wear that?"

Timelies all!

Wow for the passage of time. It always gets me when kids I knew as babies are now adults.
