That is awesome news about Link and best of luck to him! Epic party is most definitely called for and you guys deserve it! ^_^

And OMG, I know I haven't known you long, even though I've seen your work and loved what you're doing on Namesake (which was mostly through Megs), but your attitude is really admirable and there's no doubt you'll be making your projects happen!! And they're going to ROCK. :D I'm sure this is nothing that you don't already know yourself but things always happen in their own time, soooo... in the meantime, looking forward to 2012!! ;)
