I honestly and sincerely want to thank everyone that has continued to support me by watching, commenting, and noting me thus far. Because of my recent submissions (and perhaps a little holiday help) i have been so graciously blessed to confidently say i can visit my family out of state for christmas and use the rest of what i've earned so far to actually make a difference in my loans. Even beyond the idea of money, your support is also so positively overwhelming i can hardly describe it or begin to thank you all one by one.

I really, truly try to do my best to respond to comments but i get a bit overwhelmed at times. I just hope most of you see this entry and know that, from the bottom of my heart, i really want to thank you all so much.

This has been the greatest holiday and (early) birthday present i've ever received: A wonderful community filled with amazingly talented and generous people.
