Hey Alix,
It's your BlogHer movie buddy. I'm so glad you are finally able to get your life back to where it should be - you definitely deserve it! I had so much fun with you at BlogHer and I'm so sorry to hear that you've had so many years of pain and suffering. Congratulations to you for not giving up and to your physicians for finally finding an answer!
Miss you and please let me know whenever you make your way out to the east bay - I'd love to catch another movie!

'Tis The Night Before Kinder....
I just put my baby to sleep. Tomorrow, my "baby" girl starts Kindergarten. As she was going to bed, she said to me, "Mommy, I am so excited that I am about to cry. Is this what it means to cry because you are happy?". I hugged her and said, "yes darling, those are happy tears." So, to the m...
