I counted 26 Birthday greetings in the guestbook, which ain't bad since Toni played it low key on the announcement - sort of the way way Alvin does things.

Happy to hear from you, however briefly, dear Laurie. You are sorely missed.

Aw, gee whiz, Kim... Well, I'm sorry if you don't believe me! I had the best of intentions before, honest, but it's been a whirlwind year, in good ways and bad, and alas, I haven't yet figured out how to clone myself.

My dad nearly died last winter, as some of you may recall (though thank Goddess he pulled through and is still with us, albeit heavily disabled), a much-beloved auntie (my mom's eldest and closest sister) died last summer, leaving a very complicated and time-consuming estate, and a whole lot else has gone on for me, including professional pursuits, romantic adventures, and a sometimes rather turbulent friendship with an "old" flame who will probably still be a creative partner in some of my upcoming musical ventures. Ain't life grand?? Never a dull moment.

Anyway, I haven't actually been lurking-- December 19th means one thing and one thing only to me: ALVIN'S BIRTHDAY!!! I'd been thinking for days about its approach, so came here especially to post a greeting to him. But I miss you all very much, my dear ALMB family, and will make a renewed effort to post here more regularly as I used to.

I've really missed you too, Toni!!! My deepest condolences again about your mother-- I recall I "vibed" to the board within a couple of days of her passing, and posted and sent you an e-mail... I think you mentioned on the board you got it, but weren't in a space to reply right then, as I understand... but I've missed hearing from you too. Let's make sure to keep in touch, OK? This must be a really difficult Christmas for you, dear. How are you doing???

Dear Laurie. Seeing "Empress Gitarra" among Alvin's birthday greetings made me happy. Be well, dear friend and may 2006 be a real good year both for you and Toni. For everyone, of course, but especially you and Toni.

Re: Re: NOT MUCH OF A HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO ALVIN ????

Why, thank you, dearest B, old chum... that's really very sweet of you. May we all have a really good 2006!

What can I say. It's good to be back. And I hope "Empress Gitarra" brought Alvin a smile as well.

Laurie, what you didn't know was that your postcard to me arrived on the day my mom died. In all that sorrow, it brought a smile to know you were well and thinking of me.

Oh, yes... the postcard I sent you from NYC... wasn't it a garish Radio City design?? Usually send Lady Liberty, my longtime-beloved "NYC Goddess"... well, I've always thought of you often, Toni, wherever I am, but "for some reason" I felt moved to write right when I did. And I'm so glad the thing managed to bring you a smile at such a terribly sad time for you. As to whether I've been all right... this past year has certainly brought both good and bad, joy and pain. Ain't that life? A particularly challenging relationship has been with an ex with whom I'm trying to remain friends. Let's just say he's been giving me some wildly mixed signals about that, and then some, and some of his shenanigans have actually been disruptive in my life. Never a dull moment, sigh, and I won't go into all the gory details. However... all things considered, despite some life developments which have brought me great happiness and fulfillment, I've STILL kind of been "through the mill" this year, believe it or not...

More soon, Toni & all!
