Good afternoon, welcome to the semi-regular meeting to discuss new business, held at the House of Garrett, in the offices of FNUR. Let’s get down to business.
First and foremost, everyone go here and marvel.
Second, Flickr & Yahoo hate me, so I had to create a new account. If you receive a contact request from “ragekagekaren”, it’s me. If you don’t receive one, then maybe you should ask nicely.
Thirdmost, I am participating in the Juvenile Diabetes Research Foundation “Walk to Cure Diabetes” next weekend. If you have a moment and some scratch to spare for a damn good cause, please visit my fundraising page.
Fourthlymost, the reason I have been so crappy about updating this blog lately is because I have suffered from a relapse in my clinical depression. I’ve had depression since I was a kid and been on medication in some form or another since I was 17. Over a month ago, Erik and I realized that I was having a relapse, and have been working with my doctor to get me on a new medication. I am currently on two medications – the old anti-depressant and the new anti-depressant. Soon, we will either begin taking me off the old anti-depressant (the doctor wanted me to get stable on the new one and get through the side effects before I go through the withdrawal from the old one) or switching me to a different new one because of the side effects. Anyway, I didn’t write because I felt that anything I had to say was just not true – trying to be funny when I just felt empty inside. But now that I am getting back to normal, I decided to come back and tell everyone what’s up. I’ll do my best to get back to a regular update schedule – both with 24 updates, House of Garrett updates, and another new blog feature that I’ve been tossing around (but it’s still a secret for now…).
See you next time – meeting adjourned.
