Oh yuck!

Oh yuck! I let my paid LJ account expire, because A, there are like three of us left here anymore, and B, I am twenty-dollars-for-the-rest-of-the-month poor.

Now there are fucking ADS on EVERYthing and I only have 15 userpics. Oh, and I can't build polls. Meh. We'll see if I get bugged enough to give the Russians any more money for this platform.

True, there may be only three of you out there, but there is a galaxy of material still floating around in the distant, starry sky of the Internet. I spent the afternoon reading one of my old journals, and laughing out loud; although it's a chronicle of a vibrant and once-present-tense life, I don't remember about 95% of it. Chalk it up to the lack of an eidetic memory, I suppose.

AJ encouraged me years ago to reach out to you, although at the time I wasn't sure what to say. Not because there wasn't anything to say, but because there was nothing I could say that wasn't foolish and trite. In the end, all I can say is that I'm sorry that I hurt you, and I'm sorry for what I did.

I haven't delved deeply enough into your journal to learn about Kevin more than superficially, but suffice it to say that I hope that this finds you--and him--happy. You deserve someone amazing; you were, and I'd wager, still are, a good man.

a decade's perspective

We were both ten years younger; let's hope we're both ten years wiser now. There were many issues in our situation, and I behaved badly. Yeah, I was hurt, but *shrug* that's the risk. I'm better now! Hope you are, too.

Kevin is a peculiar, cranky, intelligent, athletic, and iconoclastic man. I knew him online before you and I met. When the law in Washington state changes this June 30, we will automatically have been married for five years.

He's the right guy, I think. Still fond of you, though, and would snog you if you were here.
