As it is.

This was taken down after someone who I love dearly and knows me better than most accused me of gloating. I'm not sure that he was correct, and have decided that time has allowed for a chance to re-appraise.

All of these cryptic and darkly-foreboding posts of late must have been vaguely fulfilling for those readers of C&C with more masochist tendencies...

It seems that I may be coming through that period of late whereby the darkness and the dread, the pain and the confusion threatened to overwhelm me - where all hope and joy was being sucked into a great mass of turmoil - a Dementor's Kiss indeed - and where all I wished was for that fade to black...

And so it comes to pass that the House of B undergoes a revolution, a bloodless coup, and becomes the House of Girl. Oh, would that it were bloodless - but the bleeding has to go unseen for the sake of the B-lets.

Hope, Equilibrium, Peace - those ever-elusive things...

And yet, and yet...

I am suddenly able to write, suddenly able to glimpse, briefly, as the mists lift momentarily, a fragment of the future, the soft glow over the horizon...

Home.

May the future be all that is rosy and light, and the present be as painless as is possible. For all of you.

Thinking of you.

Periods of darkness... unseen bleeding... revoloution, and a Dementor's kiss; It's all very angsty, AB.

The masochists may have found it fulfilling, but us lurking saddists are starting to think you have been inhabited by Avril and Alanis, and wondering whether to use garlic or Barry Manilow records to exorcise you.

Hooray for glimpses of soft glows and absence of the kiss of dementors.

So sad to hear of the unseen bleeding.

A hug.

The whole city of London has decided to stop being quite so angry and snarly for a day and instead sends it's happy vibes and hugs to AB. It is possible this is the first sign of the apocalypse though - we're checking Nostradamus.

If you do go all private, add me, baby!
