I've not been around at all, really. So I'm sort of reading about things for the first time. It is a challenge, but so far I'm following pretty well. :)
Congratulations on all the recent success. As for the anticlimactic nature of these achievments, I guess that's what rocking chairs and front porches were intended to eliminate. Perhaps my grandparents front porch is replaced by coffee shops and cocktail parties in different people's lives. But much like the aftershocks of another 'climax', I'm sure you'll have opportunity to enjoy smaller thrills as an echo of your latest accomplishments.
Man, I sound pompous. I gotta get used to this lj commenting thing again. ;)

Congrats!

So it is new, and both really exciting and sort of totally anticlimatic.
