Anonymous asked: I asked a question about two weeks ago. I did not see you answer it for a while, so I assumed you just lost it, and that was okay. But just today 1/22/12 you answered my question. It was a great answer too! Thanks! I now have a much greater appreciation for what you do. I didn't realize just how many questions you must have. Thank you for everything you do for everyone. You are awesome.

Awesome, thank you so much! At any given time I have around 200 messages in my inbox. I answer a lot on days like today and get that number down, but then I get busy for a couple days (I’ve been with Brad since Friday afternoon making food and touring a tea factory and playing disc golf with his friends) and that number jumps right back up. Being back in school isn’t really helping this either. There are some questions in my inbox that are older and I feel bad about waiting so long to answer them, so what I try to do if I answer a new one from the top, is answer one from the bottom as well. I feel that anyone who confides in me — a relative internet stranger — deserves an answer and I really do try my hardest to provide satisfactory ones. So thank you, I really appreciate what you said. <3

(Also, I think sometimes I do lose questions/don’t receive them… but I’m glad I didn’t lose yours!)
