and also for those of us who managed to find his little corner of the world to share with him. I've learned a lot of great lessons about life from my interactions with the regulars here at SSI, as well as the previous coffee shops at which we have gathered (D-O-V was where I met y'all).
The exchange of information here, as well as the acceptance of divergent points of view, is quite unlike any other internet community of which I've been a part. I've always been a pretty extreme nerd, and the majority of my meaningful social interactions (outside of my immediate family) come from places like this.
I guess the best way I can put my thoughts and feelings on this community would be thus: the world would be a better place if more people interacted like we do here.
I'm also thankful for my wonderful girls, of which I have four (including the mother!), and I got to spend a couple of days alone with my two year old daughter these past two days. Even while nursing an ear ache my little girl, Jadzia, lit up my world while her mama and sisters attended a family occasion. I'm thankful for the moments we get with those we love, and who love us in return, because in the end that's really all that matters.
