To boldly go where no Kali has gone before...

Okay, that's not true. I'm sure there's has been many a Kali who has gone to CODENAME: SOUTHERN SWING STATE before, just not this one.

Eeeeeeep! Thanks for the site; I was totally mesmerized, and the Wonder Woman gifs just made it better, actually. YOU ARE NOT ALONE, etc. etc. And also, thank you so much for good wishes! *superhugs*

How are y'all doing, btw? (See, I'm practicing the lingo...)

I do look forward to the super-niceness... everyone has certainly been that so far. I just worry, because I am a worrywart.

I shall try to be appropriately awesome!
