Aftermath.

Last night was awesome.

Thank you Sarah B., Chris, Sarah M., Russell, Joe, Marc, Tessy, Anna, Agnes, Ariel, Abby, Bridget, Flissy, Steve, Brooke, Tim, Bart, Brandie, Dixie, and Jayson, who were there in person.

Thank you Mark, Glenn, Mike, and Jason, for the pre-show.

Thank you "Random Mentat," Don, Jeff, Scott, and countless LJ peeps who were there in spirit.

Thank you all for your kind words, your big hugs, your gifts of food, presents, and massages, your listening ears, and your offers of tissues and good counsel and elsewheres to be.

I know that I am a good person who acts honorably and in accord, and I am blessed and honored to have friends who do the same. Thank you for your friendship, and for allowing me to deserve your friendship by being the best me that I can be. I have class and I have self-respect and self-esteem. I will not be defined by limitations.

I don't have to worry that no one has my back. I know that you do.
