Hi, I'm back in the other land!

Seven years… yes, it took me seven years to get to a convention and it will take me more than seven millennia to remove a single memory of Milwaukee 2006. As I met one by one of you my fellow Clusterheads and wonderful supporters, there was affirmation of how real this feeling of belonging and family is. We spoke on this board for years about our deepest hurt, our commonality, our sadness and our joys but never in my life has there been this absolute place that I just belonged. With you there need not be the masks worn in public and with the rest of society, no hiding, no pretence… eventually my pot found its lid and I came home. We all act at times like normal people, with our normal idiocies, idiosyncrasies and ideologies but the fact remains that our abnormal abnormalities make us the most interesting, unorthodox and committed people with total single mindedness when it comes to our cause and condition. For years I read your posts and came to know you through your expressions written on a white background. After meeting you in person, the background became a kaleidoscope of colourful voices that will ring forever true in its beauty and familiarity. I thank you all for adding your voices to my existence and know that, even though I am at the other side of the world, it will take you years to get my high pitched voice out of your heads… so don’t even try, I’m here to stay! High Five to ya’all! Just absolutely LUVE you crazy CHer's!

A big high-five back, Jas.. Meeting you was a highlight for me, and I truly appreciate the effort it took for you to attend the conventions. I'm glad you are home safe, and glad to see you back here. Hugs, Patti

Damn Jasmyn, I didn't even go and I feel like I need to give you a big hug for that post! Keep that one around for those days when everyone's being pissy around here and wants to question why the hell this place exists. That's a gem and says it all! Scott

Best weekend ever, Jazz, and I'll see you next year in Richmond - right????!!! Also understand that Patti is sleeping round the clock after clubbing in NY??? Got any stories to share?? Love ya Sandy

It is up to YOU to educate yourself and then help your doctor plan your treatment. If you just sit down in front of your doctor and say "make me better" you are setting yourself up for a great deal of pain.

Glad to hear you're safely home. Hopefully it won't be long before you're able to come back and visit again. Wishing we'd had time for more than hello and g'bye but with sooo many people and sooooo little time, it does make it hard. Note to self - "Learn how to stay up late - it's when the most fun happens!". Hugs Carol

Thanks you guys! Over tired, can't go to bed and need to catch up and see you guys. You are my real addiction. Chemical guy I would have loved to meet all of you that could not make it, maybe another year. Oh Jean, you have more energy than even I can muster but Girl I'm sure we will meet again to sit around and talk and remember I need fishing lessons. Hey Ricky, takes me ages to go through all the pic threads but the ones I've seen, we had great fun hey? Mel, you bugger, why are some of them not on any more? Charlie, my man from Nauw Yoirsey, you bet your boots in concrete but you I'll have to meet again so you can talk like Al Capone to me. Rori, I'm sorry I didn't see you to say goodbye but kiss that lovely pouting boy of yours from me, oooh! Scott, great stuff that you liked it, wish you were there, the next time I come down make a plan man. Hi Andrea, bring your broom next time, we need to do some serious damage during a full moon Girl! We just started having fun and then it was over . Sandy you know what we were told, what happens at Milcon stays in Milwaukee, well this should apply to me and the USA from now on. Hope to be your roomie soon again, my friend. Yeehaa! Jackie Rocks! You say "Hi" to our Blake, he still owes me some moonshine . BTW Jackie, Jonny is dead scared of me, he can't detain or process me even if he had such an outlandish idea, I'm from Africa and I bite.
