(no subject)

Hi all! Sorry I've been AWOL all week, but I've been dealing with personal issues, plus some RL stuff. I have gotten a little written on my NaNo, but it's all on paper (except for the very short bit of it that ltlredhairdgirl read). Um, nothing really new or interesting going on. I am going to try to reply to all the emails & comments, but if I miss yours I apologize. I'm also going to try to scroll through my flist, but it's almost a certainty I'll miss some things, so if you've posted something you'd really like for me to see, please let me know.

Special thanks goes to all the people I tagged who did the music meme, especially to all of you who posted YSI links! Yay!

deliciantasy: I love ya & I've missed talking to you & I'm sorry for being a bad friend the past couple weeks.

ltlredhairdgirl: I'm so proud of you! I love your cracked-out mistletoe & the fact you're coming out of your shell! Your letter & pressie is sitting here all ready to go, so I'll hit the post office in the morning.

puterpatty: I'm completely mental sometimes, in case you haven't realized it yet, and your stuff is sitting here waiting for me to get to the post office tomorrow also. Complete with extra copy of The Calcium Kid and a surprise for you. You are the greatest (though now I seem to have fallen into yet another fandom...)

mimiheart: I'm so glad Kyle is okay & that the procedure is over & done with. I'm sorry I wasn't around to talk to you the other night. One of the times you called I was on the phone & couldn't get Tinsley to shut up so I could click over adn i can't call you back b/c I don't have long distance. But I love ya & hope things are still going ok. Give the kids hugs & loves from me.

ordinary_magic, snarkyroxy, irisgirl12000, mimiheart, and whichever other OWL staffers I'm missing in my current state of mind, I'm very very sorry for not being around & I promise that after this weekend I'll pull extra beta duty to make up for it.

scots_in_kilts: I never know which name to use when I mention you in my LJ. I think you have multiple names just to confuse me! I hope school & other stuff is going well for you. And I so wanted to get online the other night after LOST and talk to you *g* but I came home and crashed instead. Maybe I'll catch you sometime this weekend.

EDIT: I forgot to say thank you to everyone who offered me hugs, love, sympathy, and an invitation to cry/rant/ramble about everything. I'm very very grateful that I have such wonderful friends.

Anyone I'm missing, I'm sorry & I still love you too, I'm just still not completely here. Oh, and one last thing... fall school pics (cut b/c, despite the best efforts of mimiheart, I still haven't quite accomplished changing the size of pics):
