Holy cats....

I haven't been around much lately--there has been busy-ness abounding, and I haven't even paid much attention to reading here. And I apologize for that, because, in catching up this morning, I've found that I've missed a LOT

Life happens and we would be poor friends to you if we weren't okay with that.

*hugs*

May you come up for air soon.

[anahata56]

Thank you, Honey.

People here are just so good to us that I feel like a shit when I'm not there for them the way they're always here for us...

[fiannaharpar]

I totally understand and agree.

[captain_phil]

you are all too dangerous to be allowed that close to the work server

me? dangerous?

[anahata56]

Oh hell yah.

"Social networking", doncha know. The very ROOT of all viruses and hacking.

Our IT security guys are so paranoid that they'd have us virtually double-bagging whenever we legitimately go on the internet.

I always love it when they provide us a link to check something out and it turns out the link sends us to a blocked site.

Always a good time.

Oh yes! I can see where viruses and hacking can appear suddenly from someone's pictures from a drunken weekend in Cincinnati.

Or pictures from anywhere else, I just used that because that was the last vast quantity of pictures I posted.

I'm not saying it's sane--I personally think they've flipped their nuts, honestly. But nope--no LJ, no webmail, no way to possibly contact anyone from the outside world....

It's sad.

I don't judge my friends by the quality or frequency of their computer output.

Matter of fact, lately I've been indulging in hand-written letters. Those are much nicer.

I just hate coming back after being away for awhile only to find that I've missed something really important--especially when I find that someone was unhappy or in trouble and needing what little support I'm actually able to give via this medium.

It feels like selfishness when I come here for help and get it, and then too overwhelmed by life to be able to give it back when someone else needs it.

Real World Responsibilities come before virtual pass-times. But the occasional "I'm still alive, just drowned in Reality" posts are appreciated (that's why I was trying to keep them up on my page as well, during the 1.5 month lack-o-connectivity).
Work keeps a roof over one's head, food on one's table, and connectivity to one's computer.

I've been posting something every couple of days, just to let folks know we're still out here, and no, we're not mad at anyone, and yes, we still love all of you.

But I feel like I haven't written anything of substance in WEEKS.

That's what happens when all you can manage after a day of work is yet another Law and Order marathon!

If anyone has had a lot on their plates lately it's you and your husband! Friends will be around when you have a chance.

*hugs you warmly*
