So anyway..

How are you?

[John]

Fine, thank you! And you?

I'm doing just fine. I'm chilling on Christmas Break. Maybe a bit too much, I better go light the fire. XD
I'm also entertaining myself by writing grossly exaggerated tales since there has been a request for stories. So how is everyone here doing? Feel at home yet?

I'm late to this, but as you asked.

I'm quite well, thank you.

My entire life changed last year, and I'm settling into the newness of what I've found. It's a fuller life than I've ever known.

I was an art student back in the day (the day being that one which involved saber tooth tigers at the tar pits) and have recently returned to attempting to create things. This, after years of problems with my hand. I've bought a new camera and have begun a project documenting Roadside Americana, older amusements, and vintage signage/buildings with photos. (Anything near mythically tall , or evocative of long ago childhoods or past prosperity is what draws me in. I'm especially fond of any thing that looks a bit ridiculous and serves only the purpose of making one smile. As I'm, pretty much defined the same way.)

...and all that is just another introduction of sorts, and to let Tom (and all of you) know who's sitting at the table beside you. I'm the one smiling and very glad to meet you.

Hope all are still well and stay so.

Thank you very much!

...and may any cloaks either of you wear be fur lined. (It's cold just about all over the world right now.)
