Wow guys... a couple days I put up a journal that was a bit of a rant and lament of my recent inactivity and just generally dismal mood. I asked for support, and was pleased to find out that you folks really delivered!

I just want to take some time to express my appreciation of this wonderful outpouring of advice and well-wishes. I'm so happy just to know that you're all here for me, I love you all and am so grateful to have you here, you know who you are ^^ While I do have some mental and emotional recovery to go through, I feel a great deal better just having heard from all of you over the last few days. I just want you to know how much that means to me.

As a token of my appreciation, when you get the chance, look in my Scraps folder; I'm uploading some old content that I drew waaaay back in 2007 and only recently dug up and scanned, something I've never posted anywhere before and has only been seen before by my brother and maybe one or two close friends back in the day. It's pretty rough, I know it's not much, but I suppose it's more than I've BEEN uploading these last few months, eh? ^_^

Enjoy, and again, thank you all very very much.

Cheers,
