My brother-in-law Nelson passed away on January 22nd – he would have been 40 years old today. We miss him… Well, a lot of people miss him. I’ve got some photos on flickr (tagged “ZippyK”), and now (thanks, Toni!) there’s a really lovely memorial web site up at nelsonaspilla.com. Nelson really brought a lot of people together, and brought a lot of smiles into people’s lives – these memories of him will continue to do that. Happy Birthday, brother-in-law.

Here I sit (at Metreon), about a week late wishing myself a Happy Birthday. I’ll forgive myself this time. My trusty Venti Decaf Drip No Room is by my side (and In Mah Belly!), keeping me warm. Going to meet Em and Agent Dan (yes, he’s visiting SF) in a few minutes, and had a whole 7 minutes to kill, so I figured I’d take six minutes (I’m typing with my thumbs, people) to thank everyone who called, sent a card, sent an e-mail, sent a text message, and/or wrote on my Facebook wall. Really feeling the love this year! So many ways to keep in touch, and I’m still pretty bad at it. My apologies for not responding sooner, and I promise to get individual replies going soon. I’ve been crazy busy lately, and I’m hoping this long weekend will let me get caught up a bit. One year older, and maybe getting a teeny tiny bit better at keeping in touch…?
