Thanks guys...

[Basher]

I'm actually quite the sap so I will leave this short and sweet.

I want to genuinely thank, from the bottom of my heart, those that were there for Julia and me these last 9 days, which have felt like an eternity.

For the ones here and abroad that provided "extra" assistance, you know who you are and I will never ever forget how much you came through for me.

For those that I was only able to reach via open ramblings on the Intertronz and other unreliable technologies, I say thank you, too.

And one last note. To those that picked up the phone and called me directly - after I most obviously intentionally posted my personal number for all to see - I say thanks for getting Julia and me. We were so lucky to have you in our lives, and now all of that luck belongs to me.

A lot of fucked up shit happened to all of us in November, some more than most.

Now, I hope I don't freak you out too much, but after starting November with escalating serious personal issues that did NOT have anything to do with my love, I posted the following to Facebook:

Hey November - f@#k off and leave as quickly as possible, locks will be changed at midnight November 30th. Dear December, can't wait to spend some time with you.

Facebook Status Update

Well, I was is such a happy and content place when the calendar flipped to December, that I forgot to change the locks, and that's because the house was open to everyone. I thank those that were able to attend, but I will be changing the locks today.

On Monday I will be going to work in the morning, and in typical Basher fashion, I will be leaving early so I can enjoy a leisurely lunch before my flight to Los Angeles. I will be staying with family for a while, returning in time to do some laundry before other family convene in Las Vegas.

Don't worry though, they have wifi on the beach, in the casinos and in my New York City hotel. Can't wait to get my hugs from the rest of you.

Love and Happiness,

Brian

While I only really get to observe and engage with it from a distance, your outlook and strength are truly an inspiration to me. From my vantage point it appears your continued thirst for life is the most fitting and meaningful testament that you could give to the one you love. So really, thank you for that.
