'member me?

Dearest Darlingest Loyal Readers:

It is now January 2010, and I have not written you since a full year ago. I know that you worried about my safety, questioned my devotion, and wondered what you'd done to deserve such neglect. I know you told yourself the only reasonable, acceptable, nay--rational explanation was that I'd been a victim of some horrific accident which left me without the use of my typing fingers. And I know immediately after that thought you chastised yourself for wishing me harm; that you said, "No, no, let it not be that. But let it also not be that she has just abandoned us. Let it be something else. Something I can't quite imagine, maybe can't quite understand. Something beyond reprieve, beyond concern, beyond that which needs any explanation at all..."

And so I say, Hello. Happy New Year. I shall write you more awkward tales soon.

Much love,
L.
