don't call it a comeback (unless you want to)

Friends! I have been... absent. Basically since this time last year, apologies. Really absent, in that I have mostly not even been reading LJ for the first time since I arrived here in 2001 (holy shit). I know I have missed important things, and I hope you will catch me up on them, if you want to

I'm glad you're back! I'm going to try to post more too. I love the pictures!

[strippedhalo]

Yay! Thank you!!

[dine]

nice to hear from you again! it looks like a good year, based on the terrific pictures

[strippedhalo]

Thank you, and thank you for the Christmas card!! It was actually nice to go through the photos, because a lot of nice things happened that I had forgotten about. :)

There are some lovely -and in some cases, mystifying-pictures up here. I hope you had a good year!

[strippedhalo]

Thank you! Which ones are mystifying?! (If it's the doll head in the snow, I saw it when I was crossing the street! If it's Wentworth Miller's face rendered in pushpins, that is hanging in one of the hallways of the college where I work - I was incredibly startled and amused when I came across it for the first time.)

Loving the socks in the early months :D 2016 will be a good year... you'll see! :D

Thanks, B! I think it will be a good year, too. :)

Hi Donkeys! I was waiting to see you.

I'm sorry you've had a bad year, though.

If there ever comes a year when I don't make it to see donkeys, I will feel terrible about letting you down!

In the grand scheme of things, it was not a terrible year, especially compared to the year you had. It just felt hard, is all. :)
