So, this is all (once again) cesperanza's fault. It all started with a posting she made in which...well, I'll let you read it for yourself if you're interested, but what came to me while reading it was we need better archiving.

I may require IV amphetamines (and RL is still not cooperating as fully as it might), but eventually I intend to get a little less behind than I currently am. (God, I hope so. It's driving me crazy, everything I haven't read. Or said... )

My sweet! So nice to see your shiny face. I'm sorry RL is being such a drag on your fandom time. Bad life! No cookie!

However, I don't think fandom stuffies should be viewed as obligations, so please don't feel any on my account. I'm just glad you are a-ok. And I'm happy to hear you will participate in my little plan!
