Welcome back, WhyNot! I don’t post much, but I lurk and have lurked for ages, and your presence on this board was one reason I stuck around (and joined, eventually). I thought you might have gone to one of the other boards. I’m glad you’re back here and that everyone is doing well! ---

I’m glad you’re back. I was worried that something here had chased you away, so I’m happy it wasn’t that. I’m sorry things have been rocky for you, but it’s nice to know they’re better now. Kindergarten? Wow! ---

Welcome back! I’m sure you don’t remember interacting with me ever (on the boards, unlike in real life, I’s pretty quiet), but I did a search for you the other day, wondering why I hadn’t heard your voice. ---

**js** , I just wrote you a big long gushy PM about just how crazily in love I am, full of further details about how awesome Awesome Guy is…and my computer crashed. You’re thus spared the goofy ramblings of a girl in love. You’re welcome. 😉 ---
