I built a lovely life with Tony, but even though we did good, it didn't quite fit. Here's to new happiness in our futures and a deep abiding love.

*a hug, with the basking warmth of Antipodean summer*

Sorry to hear that it didn't fit, in the end. I wish you both well, for happinesses to come.

*hugs*

Me too, though splitting up is definitely for the best. As for an antipodean summer, I've been spending time lately with a NZ ex-pat, someone you used to know, who's been telling me all about it. You seem to come from one of the most wonderfully odd countries on earth. I'm terribly jealous.

We are an odd country, and our diaspora seems to reach throughout the world.

Speaking of oddness, I just encountered this project from the Media Design School up in Auckland:

That is absolutely fabulous. Thank you for sharing!

Re: heh

[drcuriosity]

Most welcome :-)

I think it says a bit about how relaxed we are as a country that something like that can be done, and showcased, as a school project.

I'm sorry to hear that. I hope you're both doing okay, all things considered.

[porphyre.livejournal.com]

It's been hard, and heart-breaking, but it seems to be for the best, so at least there's that. We're still going to be dear friends, but as a couple, we're just not working out. He was here this weekend so that we could grieve together.

Still and again, hugs to you both.

[porphyre.livejournal.com]

Thank you, Dee darling. I hope you're well, too, and that we see you this year.

[umbriel.livejournal.com]

I'm doing okay. I'd love to come and visit Vancouver some time soon, should time and funds allow.

[porphyre.livejournal.com]

We need to rustle up a conference again, don't we?

[a-dream-tiger.livejournal.com]

if you do rustle up a conference in Vancouver or Seattle, or some other way to have Dee present, then I would be there in a heartbeat. It would be good to see you again, my friend.

Sweetie. I'll drink to those things, and to a year of renewal and strength for you.

[porphyre.livejournal.com]

As break-up's go, it took a bit longer than usual, but we seem to be doing it right, hey? Love to you, too.

[shirtlifterbear.livejournal.com]

This is me, hugging you!

*hug*

[porphyre.livejournal.com]

D'aww. Thanks!

[silveredmane.livejournal.com]

I love you, Jhayne.

More hugs.

[porphyre.livejournal.com]

Love you, too, S. You're in my thoughts. I hope you have a very satisfying Channukah.

[amberspiderlily.livejournal.com]

and more hugs

[porphyre.livejournal.com]

Best wicked step-mother ever.

[gustavolacerda.livejournal.com]

Lots of hugs!

[porphyre.livejournal.com]

Thanks, friend. I'm glad we all got to spend time together before you left. How's NYC?

[gustavolacerda.livejournal.com]

Me too.

NYC is pretty cool. Lots of good people here. I'm looking forward to having more time, once quals are out of the way.

If you read my latest, you may see that my life in recent weeks has been more dramatic than usual... it's painful, but it's good. I feel alive.

When are you coming to NYC? You're always welcome in my guestroom.

[jocelynn.livejournal.com]

Sorry to hear. :( Sharing your grief, as right now I'm going through a break-up after 4 years together.

[tnkgrl.livejournal.com]

Just -hugs-

[zanfur.livejournal.com]

*hugs* I hope you still visit Seattle on occasion...I still have an extra room, although it's in a much nicer house now. :-)

[maida-mac.livejournal.com]

I'm late to the game, as always. I'm sorry to hear this, but glad that made the choices that worked best for you.

Like Robin, we have a spare room, if you want to come visit. I'd hate to not see you again until Norwescon.

I'm verrrryy late

[winterlion.livejournal.com]

nonetheless, wishing you a glorious spring dawning.
