... and I thank you!

Hey there, feeling much much better, still broke but more cheery about the whole thing, and you know, I'm just thinking I wouldn't have gotten through the rough times if it weren't for whole loads of people popping up at just the right moment.

So, thanks to plumsbitch in platforms, kit-cat K, sleazenation, ganesh, zocher, my friends in Chicago, my parents, my students even, and all the lovelies who've cheered me up in many ways during "the bad times..."

Anything you're grateful for? Any one you wanna thank? Hey, Thanksgiving is coming up, so thank them here!

sappy as it sounds, my mom. we havent always gotten along, and I spent a lot of time resenting her for my childhood. but in these past couple of truly difficult years shes really come through for me, in a lot of ways, in a lot of situations. I couldnt be more grateful

Goodness Gracious Meme

Great thread idea.

And too many people that I'm grateful to at the moment, for getting me through some tough times and/or generally being fab. So apologies if I forget you, yeah?

Thanks to:

The Girl, Fallen Angel(and the mighty Miss Jill), da-da-da Flowers, Pacha and Meme, Haus, Ariadne, Kit-Kat, SFD, Cherry Bomb, Pepsi Bill P, Rollo Kim, lovely Brighton friends, my family... and of course everyone who posted on my thread being lovely and caring.

Cheers all. You rock

Cheers to pretty much everyone I know. Either online or in the real world. Life would be impossible without friends.

But especially my dog. She rocks.

My Ma, My Da, My Sis, My Best Girl, and every single member of Barbelith. Sizeable slices of my love cake to y'all.

People I'd like to thank...

My awesomely cool housemate Katie, without whom I would have gone proper nuts long ago.

My dad for giving me a start and opportunities I never thought I'd have.

My boss Gary for helping me at a really critical time in my life, and pushing me in the right direction.

And of course all you guys, for helping in ways you'll probably never know.

Ta.

that

My family for putting up with my fucking shrieking suicidal ravings, and for loving me anyway.

Those of you here who've reached out with warm fuzzies or 'I hear ya's.

Thank you.

Our Lady of The Two Towers

Plums in Platforms for feeding me toast and general above and beyond- type behaviour, Haus for the foreskin tower story, Expressionless for telling me about Boredoms albums, Lilith Myth for hand-holding, Rothkoid and Kit-Cat for sage advice, Ganesh for cocktails, Runx for what was probably a well-deserved slap, SFD for not minding that I never really talked to her and finally the spunk-sucking lizzzards that won't let me rest!

And anyone that has been stellar that my malfunctioning brain has let me forget, obviously...

Tryphena Absent

22:09 / 16.11.02

Harmony because she always makes me feel completely normal!

My friends Dan and Vicki because they loved Pat Val's when I dragged them in there and Emily for betraying me a long time ago and proving to me that if the world was taken over by zombies my survival instinct would kick in but I'd rip their throats out for my friends (and hers).

Oh yeah and the person who arranged hall room allocation so I was in Talybont 11-3-1 because I still live with three of the girls from my floor and they fucking rock!

Oh, I forgot Paleface, never-ending thanks for linking your blog to Barbelith. It saved me from the horrors of the Home Counties.

And those fulsome thanks right back atcha, Mlle la Bombe, for a very fine time dissecting the universe and sharing so many arcane pleasures. & that mighty sleazy nation too with his shrimp and his krill.

We get a bit fraught at the moment with the everyday worries of moving your life 400+ miles away and being so distanced from the comforting and familiar but you certainly eased the pain, you Barbelovelies you...

I'm thankful for Barbelith and all the fun and hope everyone here's given me.

I'm thankful to my local friends who managed to get me out of my essay-induced stress last night for a fun birthday.

I'm happy because as I typed this I realised that the next few months are going to be a lot of fun (even though there's a foot of snow outside right now). Weee!

Im exceedingly thankful for the person in toronto who always seems to call Just Before Christmas and says "Hey, I got someone who needs some art done..interested in a job?"..I think its 3 years in a row now...
Im also thankful for the 'Lith, for all the brain stretching and head shaking its caused. Im thankful for friends that are far away because it makes me miss them more and appreciate All my friends more.
Dammit all im just thankfull for everything, the good, the bad, the fact that I now have the Facts of Life theme song running through my skull.
You take the good, you take the bad, you take 'em both and there you have the facts of life, they cause a lot of strife..If you hear it from your brother better clear it with your mother, better get it right, call her late at night. You got the future in the palm of your hands all you got to do to see it through....(ok..im not longer thankfull for that last one...Littlest Hobbo theme anyone?)
