gracias and FYI

for anyone who worried i might have thrown myself off a cliff or something since last saturday, fear not. i didn't. i haven't updated in a week partly because i didn't really have anything to say, and partly because i wanted the valentine's day entry to stand at centre stage for a while. plus, i felt following it up too quickly with something silly or frivolous would be inauthentic and ring false. so, i left it alone for almost seven days.

to that end, i just wanted to say thank you to the folks who emailed me or called me privately to comment on that feb. 14th entry. it really meant a lot. ditto to my amazing pair of de-facto aunties who commented here. thank you, as always, for reading and getting it.

now. moving on...

i spent a sizable chunk of today shopping at IKEA with b-dub and dan2. it was, in a word, hilarious.

the details of that jaunt will be posted here tomorrow.
