dead_kitty, I missed you. Next time, then?

lowhumcrush, I missed you too. A lot. So very much. Don’t hurt me!

seracy, thank you for the totally sweet and amazing phone call!!!! We need to talk soon.

mahoganybrowne, sorry — it just got too late and we had a long drive ahead of us. i need to try and book a feature at the Nuyo soon — it’s been a couple of years at least. we’ll get together soon, promise.

i’m feeling a tad better. Yesterday met with therapist and we made a small meds adjustment. Seemed to help, although i’m getting tired of adjusting all the time — still, as this progresses i suppose it can’t be helped.

Sorry, indeed, to scare folks. More later, ok? Gimme a day or two to think.

Onward.

T

home safe. details later.
