		<description>Glad tidings to you and yours, &lt;b&gt;Chumpy&lt;/b&gt;.  Lumpy bits indeed.  I appreciate your purely selfish note, too.  This recent, messy round of the LGBTQ rights battle has definitely left a good many lumps on me, particularly the prose &amp; picture-generating parts.  

I got to a point, circa eight weeks before the election, where I felt like I couldn&#039;t conscience myself doing anything other than try to preserve the protections so recently granted our family.  In the eight weeks following the loss, I have had a hard time feeling motivated to do much more than lick my wounds, and remember that the same family that&#039;s now in legal limbo is blessed by good health, and it&#039;s as filled with love as it was back when it was in legal purgatory, or what have you.

Thanks again for your selfish note.  It works in my own self-interest, too (how enlightened!).</description>

		<description>Happy New Year LD. Here&#039;s hoping 2009 has as much wonder and wonderfulness without all the lumpy bits that have been so hard to swallow. 2008 has been a difficult year.

On a purely selfish note, I hope that you will be inspired and enabled to post prose and pictures with renewed intensity.</description>

		<description>We live in interesting times, don&#039;t we?  Where will be a year from tonight?  

Whatever the answer, I trust the LD Family ship to bob along upright and sturdy. 

The very best to you and yours.</description>

		<description>Perfect!

Thank you to you, &lt;b&gt;caitlin&lt;/b&gt;, and may the same blessings sprinkle all over you and those you love.  Peace, justice, and communion!  And maybe a little less excitement, too.</description>
