the span of a year
Firstly, let me say that I am fully aware they are going to take away my Blog for lack of use. I've been so blog-less lately, but it has just been that crazy. This would also be less of a problem if I could post from home, which I intended to do on Saturday, alas....technical difficulties prevailed.
But, this week, my thoughts are very much turning to last summer for various reasons. First and foremost is that the IPSF Congress is going on RIGHT NOW in Oz, and I am devastated to be missing it, the first since 2002. Reports indicate that fun and merriment transcend all IPSF generations, and that all is on track for yet another amazing Congress. The ONLY silver lining to this cloudy absence is the close-to-daily updates from BH90210, made all the more sweeter in that they are unsolicited, and so very welcome.
Exactly one year ago this weekend I was in Edinburgh to see SfromS and LJ from WPG, those were...interesting times. Both in and around the time up to my little Scottish getaway.
So many memories from last summer, most I embrace with the nostalgic equivalent of a monster hug, and some I would rather put through Black and Decker Party Mate blender. But that of course what makes one's memory bank so diverse in currency.
Are things better now? In many ways yes, if only for the people who I now consider to make the days worthwhile. Some where mere ideas last year, unimaginable that we would complimentary pepper life with goodness so often. Some characters still remain, and some are steadily playing in different arenas. Only time will tell.
JSP's bday Monday. So wish I could be there. TB is on her way in a couple weeks, and with any luck whatsoever, Houston will grace me with his fabulous presence VERY soon (and KEANE IN BERLIN, NOVEMBER!!)
It is doubtful that this post has made up for my absence (esp seeing as how it will likely not post from home....) but it is a half an hour into the new day, and my lovely shower is calling.
