it's only one o'clock!

But I feel like it's the wee hours of the morning and I'm about to fall out. I've spent a long time trying to figure out how to respond to some of the comments to this part of East of The Sun, and I don't know how to. I feel pretty lousy about that because I like to respond to all of them--I hate going back over old posts and seeing that I forgot to comment, because if a person takes the time to comment, I certainly owe a comment back. Even if it's sometimes just a thank you on those occasions when I'm convinced I don't deserve comments on something. Hard to believe, but yes, It happens from time to time *G*
