Boo!

Aaak! Last time I posted here was August 5th, well over three months ago. Back then,

The economy hadn’t gone to h-e-double toothpicks in a handbasket.
The anti-gay marriage and anti-gay foster adoption initiative battles hadn’t heated up to the roiling boil that totally cooked those of us in the affected states (and beyond).
The U.S. of A. hadn’t elected its first Black intellectual president in a victory that made people weep with gratitude and relief world-wide.
The anti-anti-gay backlash hadn’t lashed back, following the resounding anti-gay vote in that historic, spirit-lifting election.

Obviously, I myself have been entangled in all of the above, and let an egregious amount of time slide since my most recent periodic check-in here. Being parboiled by the Yes on 8 campaign sucked all the spirit out of me (new vocabulary word: “minority stress”!), and all’s I had left, after trying to defeat the rollback of CA same-sex civil rights, I gave to my family (1) and thereafter to my work (2) and my own blog (3).

What’s been collecting over here at LesbianFamily.org inbox lo these months? Well, glad you asked! Some 86 bits of spam that escaped the spam-ulator, and dozens upon dozens of requests to be listed in the LF rolls, dating back to… could it really be late June? Yegods I think so.

This here shout out (with blueberry-enhanced visual accompaniment, for no particular reason but it seemed to be an effective attention-getter) is to say that over the course of the next coupla weeks I intend to list up those of you who long ago sent in requests to have your blog listed. If anyone has changed status — birthed or brought your kid home? stopped TTC? changed URLs on your blog? WENT STRAIGHT, HEAVEN FORFEND?! — do tell, and I’ll readjust your initial request accordingly.

Meanwhile, thanks for still checking in here.
