Ad introduction to posters:

Greg and Angel , hands down the most effusive posters on this blog. Greg is a musician who does amazing cartoon voice impressions, and Angel is a photographer who makes the best cookies in world. Exceptionally talented, nauseatingly cute, refreshingly moral young couple.

Kate and Kelly are long time bloggers and tech girls who are the reason I started this blog to begin with. Kate is a journalist living in Germany and Kelly is a mad web designer soon to be living in a significantly swanker apt in Toronto.

Veronica is a fellow member of the Church of Diverse Interest as a hostess extraordinaire, photographer, writer, outdoor enthusiast, runner and is presently learning to play harp.

Anneke is a singer songwriter with one smashing CD out, currently embroiled in Adventures in Retail. Cute like button, massive zombie fear. Also huge Joss Wheddon fan, as we all shall be. (And also with you)

Pete (who I think has posted once) is a likewise long time blogger, although his blog is more interesting to the international stage. Excellent friend, undisputed alpha geek, ordained in California, newly wed, catless. One howly dog though.

Kim, who likewise I think posted once, is a brazenly beautiful web and life designer who I haven't seen in too long. Happy belated birthday Kim!!!

Did I miss anyone? Between you, you have six cats that I know of. Seven if you count me. Eight if you consider that although Darwin is a beagle, he's a rather small dog and the same size as a cat I saw at the humane society. Just an urge to introduce you – some of you have been to the same parties but not all have had a chance to chat. Each of you are valued by your sense of decency, your character, your willingness to try and/or that your default position in life is loving kindness. You’re all beautiful and I love you.

Bloggy stuff? Got me an interview. Renovations start tomorrow AM, with the sad and ghetto porch plus draft at door first to go. Last night may be the last night I shove my sweater under the door to save on heat. I am giddy with the possibility.
