Official 50th trip reports and tidbits

Bittersweet Tidbit – While it was great that throughout the weekend birthday celebrations, friends were everywhere, and there was always someone to do something with, there was so much to miss. Hearing different accounts of the day from all of you makes me feel a little bit of regret that I didn’t join you in some of your exploits, and yet I had plenty of my own.

The carousel meet was a wonderful coming together of people from multiple websites to make something happen. We did the wave, sang Happy Birthday, laughed, and had a good time. But as the ride ended, half the crew exited out one exit, and the rest left on the other side. Slowly the two groups dispersed and evaporated, like they were never together. Yet, as I view other pictures, I catch myself in the background, as part of other people’s memories, definitely bittersweet.

It's odd, as I read all these posts I want to cry. You all seemed to have such a good time I am so sorry I missed it. Know that I was there in spirit with a great many of you.
I was in LibraryVixen's pocket, the amount of times I tried to call her that day.
I was hovering in spirit with NA, honey you look so beautiful in those carousel pictures!
I thought about MickeyLumbo that day, what it would be like to be working that day, remembering the '90 birthday.

Many more of you were on my mind.
Comic-con was, well, con... it wasnt you guys. It wasnt the people that have become my family when I need them. I'm jealous, and it is bittersweet.
But I am glad you had such a good time.
