I hear you over planned contact being easier than instant random contact as and when sometimes. When I used to penpal with people, I found turn taking worked well and often made it easier to refer to as one person writes, the other replies and so on. Same with email, I guess but with instant messenger, things can be bitty or disorderly. I do still use messengers, though. I tend to go through phases of being into different contact methods, with different people, at different times.
The gathering sounded fun. So Serenity is your housemate? Did you know them before you moved in together or did you friend through becoming random housemates? I live with my bio sister, Helen and we're pretty close.

I used to say that I went through phases with methods too, but this 'phase' has been around for more than 6 years now so I am not sure it is a phase any more :-p
Serenity is my housemate, yes. We were casual friends before they moved in (had met once or twice, never had much conversation) and we've quickly grown to be good friends!
