Holy hell! I picked the absolute worst week in my 4 year fandom life to go on vacation. I just spent the past 6 hours trying to catch up with posts made while I was at Prophecy and in SF, and I'm still not done. And reading all of that in one night has just left me depressed and unable to decide what I should do. Basically, I'm not prepared to do anything just yet, the rest of you are not going to one single journal place, and the threaded conversations we had will be scattered over multiple journals, where Mary responds on IJ, Sue on GJ, and John on JF.
The whole thing just leaves me sad. We were worried about how the end of canon would affect fandom - how about the end of everything else at the same time? Every post I read just added more angst 'n' woe, and I felt it right along with all of you, but in a whole depressing clump.
I missed many important birthdays - was there an alignment of stars to have so many of you born nearly the same time? So happy birthday and you all know who you are!
Two of my dear friends had surgery as well, so I'm sending you both healing thoughts and am quite concerned for both of you.
And several of you are going through some extreme hard times, so best wishes to you that things improve - I know for one of you, the nightmare of the past year is finally at an end, so yay for that.
(Am being vague to avoid outing those who don't want their personal lives discussed outside their own blogs, but my sentiments are sincere.)
I'm trying to catch up as well on comments to stories, earlier posts, and comments I've left. Forgive me if I've missed someone. I still owe![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
kriken some yaoi recs! I should talk about my fun time at Prophecy, which of course is all about the people, but I don't see me doing that right now either. *sigh*
Hmm. And as I add the finishing touches to the post, I notice how I still haven't dealt with recreating my mood icons after my own site was deleted last fall. So you can see how swift my response mechanism to crisis really is.
