So only eternity minus 8 years left! Wait... eternity minus eight years is... eternity.

Congrats, Lauri and Lush.

Belated congratulations to Lauri, Lush and Eönwë!
And I just noticed - I've been dead for a year and five days now. Feels much longer...

As I believe I mentioned in my DeathDay post last year, January 6th is the Solemnity of the Epiphany on the calendar of my religion--albeit in my jurisdiction and others we moved it to Sunday this year as most--and it also happens to be the solemn anniversary of a personal epiphany--the day I joined the Barrow-downs in 2005, at the tender age of not-quite-18.

Given that, only just 2 days ago, I was at the biggest Barrow-downer gathering of all time, and had what I can genuinely call the best, and craziest, holiday of my life--not to mention the only real New Year's Party I would ever say I attended--given all that, I am considering my DeathDay a rather significant event in my life... and as the fallout from Bostonmoot (but more on that in the appropriate thread) begins to slowly get sorted and filed, I think it's only going to become more apparent how much of an impact this site has made on my life.

So I thank you all once again, on this annual celebration, for the wonderful presence you have all been--and are--in my life.

Happy Deathday Formy!! I miss you all so much already and will agree with you on just how much of an impact this site has made on me. I think, if we all leave a gathering like that with tearful or sorrowful goodbyes, we have all been touched by this site and by the amazing people who are a part of it.

And so I would like to say again, Happy Deathday Formendacil! It was a pleasure and an honor to have spent all of last week leading up to your Deathday with you!!

Happy Deathday Pitchwife! You definitely seem like you've been here longer than just a year!

And Happy Deathday Formy! May you stay for many more years to come!

I've been dead three years now. I'm pretty spry for a corpse.
