I hadn't written anything in livejournal for a long time (actually I was only there because a former college roommate landed some cryptic entries there); anyway, although I've never communicated (or been in a ring or anything) with you in bookcrossing, but have seen your name in the forums....

I don't know if you've had me on your friends list for a long time or what, but I'll add you to mine - looks like you found several BCer's who are also on LJ.

Good luck with the vacation down under....
