my sympathies are with you.
while this thread was mainly made to see how people are going to be celebrating the day, i think its ok to talk about not being able to celebrate as well. if you include me, you, and buddy, we are batting 0/3.
i always started threads. sometimes to get people to talk. sometimes more as a blog. and sometimes even song lyrics cuz i thought they were just cool. and i always had a roll call thread just to see who was around.
tbf, i have not been around much recently, and when i came back, i was mostly stuck on the current events folder. but now im here majority of the time.
