Hi.
My apologies to those people who've posted in this diary while I wasn't around, and to whom I haven't previously replied. Mostly, it was some months between the time you posted, and when I saw the messages. I don't recall visiting here at all between the time of my last post in this diary and the time I registered under a different username so that I could say "Hi" to wishes.
At that stage I couldn't post as felici, because I'd messed up my access to this account. I changed from one internet provider to another nearly two years ago, but I never got around to changing my email address here. I was constantly on this site and I had an easy password so it didn't cause me any problems. However, after I'd been gone a while I had a security scare and reset everything - using obscure passwords! I wrote the password down, but didn't do anything more at WLF. Then I lost the password list. It didn't matter for other sites where I'd updated my email address but it did here.
So when I had an intense desire to speak to wishes, I had to open a new account. Recently I made a few posts using that account and pm'd for help in re-accessing this one. AllCdnBoy has been very helpful so that's sorted (Thank-you, Sean), and those posts I made are now showing as felici's.
What next? I don't know. I feel rather nervous posting anything here as felici. I had told myself I wouldn't post until I knew what I wanted to say here, but there you go. I don't know and I have posted.
To the people who were my loyal friends here, please forgive me, mostly I haven't tried to get up to date with you yet. At one stage, it was beyond me to post here and I just stayed away altogether. Later, I didn't feel ready to post, and I also couldn't use the name I was known by here. It was all too weird. Oddly, I'd taken in the idea that I couldn't send pms under my new name without noticing how little it would take to change that.
Now, well I've moved on from thinking that typing here again will mean I have to put myself back in the place I was when I left, which I did think and which helped keep me away. Now, I think I'll be healthier if I include this site as a part of what I'm doing - reconcile my time here with my current life I guess?
Anyway, at the moment I don't plan to use this diary in the way I once did, but I'm here, and the account I've been using has been amalgamated with my old one, so I guess people who knew me might see recent posts with my name on it. With that in mind I felt I needed to explain how that happened. Also, for a long time I've wanted to apologize for not replying to the truly kind posts I had here months ago.
