Quick hello

[gieves]

So this is a quick post just to say, hello LJ friends! I've been offline for almost a month here, so I'm feeling waaaay out of touch. Therefore, and because I am too jetlagged/tired/lazy to actually make my way back through a month's worth of updates (y'all are prolific!!) I'm going to make the usual request: if anything of import or interest has occurred to you in the past month that you think I should know about, please point it out!

I may make some inroads on my Friends list backlog, but am dubious.

In the meantime, Merry Christmas, Happy Boxing Day, Happy Hanukkah, and a Happy Happy New Year to you all!!
