I'm still grumpy that I missed Saturday night's #digciz hangout, even though I missed it for quality music- and marriage-related reasons.

I'm still marveling at the welcome I've received over the course of this year - hospitality, yes, but well beyond that, the constant communication that I'm valuable here.

That isn't something that I've been. used to, in my life. I've said that many times before.

@ShorterPearson No need to be grumpy. Come join the conversation over in Vialogues https://vialogues.com/vialogues/play/38166/ #DigCiz

@dogtrax I know, and I'm super grateful you've made that available. But I haven't been able to get the hang of throwing in annotation on a conversation. It doesn't even come close to match being able to be IN the conversation.

Again, don't take that for a lack of gratitude...but I don't want to annotate @Tdorey, I want to talk to @Tdorey.

And others, yes.

(But @Tdorey.)

@ShorterPearson

Such kind words Chuck - the feeling is mutual. I feel so honoured and you have definitely made my week.

Maybe we should plan to connect for a chat (I've heard the interwebs have tools to make those kinds of things possible ;))

@dogtrax

@Tdorey @dogtrax ...hey, y'know, they do!

wonder if any of our other friends in this tiny corner of Mastodon would want to join in...

I'm thinking of no one in particular

@lauraritchie

@ShorterPearson @dogtrax @Tdorey Heck yeah! I am no good at seeing these chats via other sites, 'cause I am just no there. Maybe I should be, but this week I have not had the strength.

I would love to speak to you people.

love to.

@ShorterPearson @dogtrax @Tdorey @lauraritchie me too, me too! 😀
@clhendricksbc @lauraritchie @Tdorey @dogtrax @ShorterPearson Me too. I really love that I heard Tanya's voice.

@katebowles @ShorterPearson @dogtrax @Tdorey @clhendricksbc I liked hearing your voice Kate.

'hospitality is absolutely peculiar'

So very well put. I love it.
