You know (recall your youth, my friend), it was some eight years ago that we first "met." And I am not on Facebook, so I cannot keep up there. As it happens, I did start a supplementary journal to <i>Lasseter's Lost Reef</i>, but I have not abandoned the first. I simply tend to post on the first far less, as my "vision" for that one is narrower. To give a simplified explanation of my idiosyncrasy, <i>Lasseter's Lost Reef Βʹ</i> is where I put the stuff that's easier to write or to copy (such as comments I have posted elsewhere on the Internet) with whatever additional brief commentary.<br /><br />In any case, as lives have gone through such radical transitions over these years, I do find it poignant and somewhat nostalgic to visit your page and leave the odd comment from time to time. You are gracious in responding to my comments. I believe I shall test that graciousness further with a brief remark on "code-switching" in your most recent post, which just popped up in my news reader.Virgil T.

I had mentioned her death very briefly in another post, but as it was a brief mention, it was easy to miss.<br /><br />As for you, looking at your Google+ page, it seems that you have started a new blog and perhaps abandoned your old one. I was hoping you were okay.Annalisahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08247872560777950844noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5359486675757920898.post-13075473057304329762016-08-20T22:53:14.629-06:002016-08-20T22:53:14.629-06:00I cannot be sure how late I am in saying this: alt...I cannot be sure how late I am in saying this: although this post is dated from several months ago, it has only just shown up in my news reader this week as your most recent. In any case, I am very sorry about the death of your beloved cat, Annalisa. My condolences to you and your husband for your loss.Virgil T.
