Thanks for guiding me back here, and bringing so many old friends out of hiding too! Such great memories! Oh how I wish it was under better circumstances.
Snoopy has always been one of those special people that I've always felt so close to. Even if we'd go without contact for years at a time, she was always there when I'd inevitably show up with a flurry of insanity, only to disappear just as suddenly a few weeks or months later. Through all of that I've always felt that her strength and kindness was something that I could count on.
Judi, I wish I could be there for you the way you've been there for me over the past 12 years. You were an inspiration when I was a love stuck young man coming here to plan a honeymoon, and when that came crashing down 4 years later, and through financial stress and family stress and health problems and whatnot you always did the one thing I can never thank you enough for, you were honest with me. Even if it's not what I wanted to hear, you'd give me a cyber slap-in-the-face and a virtual hug and let me know you cared.
You're one heck of a special lady, and know that I'm wishing for the best for you and your family.
