Hey guys. :)
There are a lot of reasons I haven't been around for so long. I'm working myself up to face them and share them and let you guys know what's been going on. Suffice it to say that, well, I've been on pretty shaky ground for a couple of months. Whether you knew it or realized it or not, you people have been a really huge part of keeping sane. Thank you.
I'm finally feeling up to the challenge of communicating and sharing and getting myself back to my normal pattern of daily life. It's been a long time since I was able to even check the friends page of my journal comfortably, but, well, things are improving. And yes, I really have been that messed up.
Even before I can formulate words to let you all know what's been going on with me, I have to say thank you again. Thank you to
mujun for being in contact in so many little ways and showing me such unfailing support. Thank you to
zukkii for being there for me day in and day out and talking me through so many things. Thank you to
beckerbell for talking about Tenshi ne Narumon and, even though you had no idea, giving me something light and adorable and enjoyable to do with my time. Thank you to
silver_rose88 for letting me use her as a lens for myself and reminding myself that yes, I have coping mechanisms, and that sharing issues and aid is what makes friends so wonderful. Thank you to
crystallekil for the little nonsense chats and being a funny bitch who keeps me amused. Thank you to all of you for the updates and chatter and helping me remember that life goes on.
The bottom line at the moment is that I'm getting back to the point where I can actually function as a human being again. I'm not back to normal, yet, but I think I'm headed there.
I have holiday cards in my possession and I'd love to send them out to all of you. Please remind me where you live or tell me where you've moved to!
