Friend dynamics . . .
It's always interesting when you see new sides of people you've known for a long time. It's also interesting when you realize the influence -- positive or otherwise -- certain friends have on the social climate of a group. This was brought home by the recent unhappiness between two good friends and the various fallout from the breakup. Mostly it ( Read more... ) -
(Untitled)
I'm feeling disconnected. On one hand, having my sweetie home is such a nice thing -- something I feel should be savored, which may be part of my problem. Having someone else here all the time is a help, but at the same time it keeps me from accomplishing some of the things that I need/want to do on a daily basis.

MySpace scares me.

I'm thinking that with 3 months' prep time (enough time for mead!) we could go en masse and have a great event -- something ( Read more... ) -
A quiet evening . . .

Apologies, and Happy New Year . . .
Many thanks to all of you who called to check in, and especially to shutter_bit and her sweetie, who sat on the children. We spent 12 hours in the ER and toasted the new year with a bunch of medical personnel. Definitely not the best New Year's Eve we've ever had, and I would have much preferred to be spending it with our friends. So it goes ( Read more... )
