I'm a shy pseudo-Burner.

Recovering from a major depression is hard.  I feel a lot better, and I have a lot more energy, and I'm ready to do stuff.  But how do I go about getting back into things?  Especially with the Burn community - I was pretty new when I just dropped off the face of the Earth for what, five months?  Now I feel really hesitant to make contact again.  I feel like I failed somehow by not being involved through the beginning of the busiest time of the year. 

Do any of you Burner types know of any leads/AFs who need a somewhat gimpy volunteer (meaning I can't carry heavy loads over distance or walk for a long time on my injured foot)?  I may be on a cane at F/s, but even so I can do assembly/take down, Greeting, manning ice, stuff like that. [info]gyesika, I've emailed Jen I just haven't heard back yet. 

To the Burners on my friends list:  I'm sorry I dropped off the map.  It was me.  Can I come back?

:) Good to know. I know it's just anxiety on my part, but better anxiety expressed than anxiety sat upon and fed.

How are you doing lately?

In partial hermitage myself: between personal crap and the recent explosion of contracts, I've been fairly swamped too. Thankfully, I was apparently built for Ranger work, so finding something to contribute is pretty easy.

I'm glad to hear you've more contacts (hopefully not sucky ones), and I hope the personal situation is going well. Rangers are awesome. :) Maybe next year I'll be in a good place to go through training.

I ought to chase my husbandy-person to your game.

Indeed: you're both quite welcome!
