Very boring, indeed. Snooze-worthy, in fact. We all need a breather.
That indeed was a hell of a lot to get through, dcp--so glad to have you here.
sj-the card is adorable, thank you.
Laura--hugs to you, just 'cause. You too, msbelle.

Days shrink and grow cold, sunlight through leaves is my song. Winter is long.

sj... could your girl be more awesome? Evidence suggests not! Love having you all on my mantle!
I cannot see how, but I am biased. Thank you!

Thrive to spite them
Laura- I got the card you sent! I'm sorry I didn't post earlier, it got mixed up in other mail and then I went and wrote something out and wandered off and forgot to hit post.
I put the seeds in a safe place to try them out in the spring.

Man this was a weird year but overall I think it ended up being kind of good for me? We hard-carried Casper through to a successful high school graduation. I dug myself out of a pretty deep depression hole. I got three job offers and accepted two of them. I netted a $43,000 grant for work on my first try. I worked for people who acted like I was a human being. We got a dog; I realized I am so not a dog person; mr. Flea loves the dog so much and is now leaving the house and walking 4 miles a day for her sake.
The big news is I took the job offer in Cape Cod so in three weeks Casper and I are moving there. Mr. Flea and Dillo will probably follow in June. It’s a big change and a lot if work and I alternate between joy and asking myself what the hell I’m thinking. We’ll see!

Congrats, flea! So you basically came to this conclusion?

flea, that's exciting! We'll miss you, but it sounds like a great opportunity!
So you basically came to this conclusion?
I feel like I should say "Hey!", but that clip makes me laugh every time I see it.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration
Congrats, flea! How exciting!

What is even happening?
I don't really want to look back on this year. There was good as well as bad, but I really just want to put it in a box, put the box in the attic, and be done with it.
Thank you, Buffistas, for being a warm, kind place in the wicked, wild web.
Flea, congrats on your big move. I wish you and your family all good things.

Same.
