In one week, it'll not only be Christmas, sadly enough, it'll also be the one year anniversary of the loss of Bea. It doesn't feel right to let that date go by without making note of it, though I'm not sure I have much of anything new to say about Bea that I didn't already say in my deviantART journal a year ago or my response to Carrie's original post. The bottom line is, overall, I feel fortunate to have known Bea; he provided me with many hours of entertainment and had a discernible positive impact on my life.
I've done what I can to try to help keep Bea's memory and blog alive. Lately, that's mainly been through posting Bambi's sequel to Bea's story "Swiss Miss Sissy," though it's been made difficult because Bambi hasn't supplied me with any new completed chapters all year. In fact, I haven't heard from Bambi for eight months. I didn't start to see this as a potential cause for alarm until November when I thought it would be a good idea to touch base with Bambi, and he failed to respond to any of the emails I sent.
