Happy Posted November 19, 2008 Share Posted November 19, 2008 I've been writing this month on my NaNoWriMo project. It has seriously eaten into my board time. Perhaps after the holidays and during the gray, cold days of winter, people will hop back on board. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Colleen Posted November 19, 2008 Author Share Posted November 19, 2008 If you went away, I would miss you. I hope you are well. :cheers2: You're sweet, Sarah. I usually do feel like my absence/presence here isn't particularly noticed ~ but maybe we all feel that way. My deal is that I have an embarassingly good memory. That is to say, I genuinely do remember details people share here, and notice when folks fade out. Kinda like the way I remember birthdays of kids I went to school with 30+ years ago.:tongue_smilie: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My head feels full of useless information at times. :tongue_smilie: I miss you when you go away Colleen.

Danestress Posted November 19, 2008 Share Posted November 19, 2008 but you are a standout, Colleen, so I would definitely notice and miss you if you weren't here. I missed you when you were in Europe. And I missed you, Sarah, when you were on that "can't post for a year until I finish my dissertation" kick.

PariSarah Posted November 19, 2008 Share Posted November 19, 2008 And I missed you, Sarah, when you were on that "can't post for a year until I finish my dissertation" kick. Maybe I'd be farther than page 19, but I would have had to have done it all without backup! A very dangerous move.

See, people like Sarah and Susan have it all backwards. In the midst of raising a family; when their bodies are still functioning relatively well, they're sittin' there writing dissertations. Whereas you and I will wait until, say, 65 and then start pursuing a doctoral degree. Yep. I'm sure of it. :lol: Edited November 20, 2008 by Colleen Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I used to post so much more than I do now, but I'm 5 years into just my master's and *that* seems eternal. The PhD is going to be loooooong! By the way, I remember you, Brenda!
