I've been missing you a *lot* lately. Maybe I'll visit more often now. But I tend to get lazy about these things. All I know is, FB has nowhere near your conversational skills, your ability to focus on one thing at a time, or your quiet demeanor.

I found out this morning that Jeff Haynie passed away last night. I've known Jeff since my MOC days, which seems like a really long time now. I need to do the math and figure out how long that really is. We also worked together for almost twelve years ( Read more... )

It feels like forever since I logged into LJ. I haven't been very talkative lately, and the rare FB comments and links seem to be all I can muster. I haven't done much blog reading lately, either. However, I do think about you guys often. I hope all of you are doing OK!

I don't think the new med (Pristiq) is doing that much good for me. It's only been two weeks, so I'm holding out for a month. Then I see my doc again.
