OOC: The infamous New Year’s Post…

I try my best to keep RP and RL separate however I would like to share how RP has impacted my RL in 2011 and thank a few amazing people for being there for me.

First of all, @SookofBonTemps — You’re amazing, RL and RP. You’ve been there for me and the Viking (and many other characters) for over a year now and I’m so thankful to have you in my life on a daily-basis. From the very first group we joined and found each other in until this our.. what? 4th group now? We’ve learned a lot about RP and ourselves through this. I can’t even express how excited I was when I met your human in June and I can’t wait to meet them again in hopefully February or March.  I’m so glad to have you in my life, to listen to me whine on bad days and to share in my excitement on good days. I truly am thankful for Twitter-RP and having met you, it’s changed my life in so many ways knowing you and I hope that we always have this friendship now, 2012 and many years after that.

Next, @DemonXDiantha — Umm.. I think I love your PM. My PM wants to run away with you and having lots of Demon-Viking babies.. #yeahOKmaybeNOT but still, you bring a smile to my face so many days of the week and I feel so fortunate to have you in my life. I really look forward to meeting your PM this summer and basking in the sun with you and @NoellaMcKenzie. Your PM is amazing and I know she can accomplish the goals she has set, I’m always here for you and I’m so thankful for all the times you’ve been there for me.  -slobbery kisses-

@FaithTheWolf — I adore you in RL and RP. I always have fun playing in RP with you and your human has been such a blessing in my life. I can’t imagine what 2011 would have been like without having you around, you keep me laughing and I love how your characters keep everyone entertained.  Thanks for listening when I needed someone and for being there for me always. I’m always here for you as well. -Viking glomps-

@TemptingGabby — I’ve really enjoyed getting to know you even better this year and our text chats. I’m sorry that a lot of it was over tragedy in our lives but I’m thankful that we had each other to share the burden with.  I’m always here for you and I love your human and your character. -lots of hugs-

@DeadSexyBill — I’m so glad that you’ve been in my life, RP and RL. You’re an amazing RPer and I always have so much fun playing with your characters, I look forward to our upcoming SLs. I hope to get to know you even better in 2012!

@FangdPerfection — I know we had ups and downs in 2011 but I’m so glad that our PMs are still friends after it all.  You’re a great RPer, one of the best writer’s I know for sure. I truly hope that your PM finds happiness in 2012— thanks for always being there and for sticking by when things got tough.  I love you Pamela. -Viking Hugs-

Thanks to all the new friends I made in 2011.  Cheers to all the friends to be made in 2012!
