If I missed an offer note, you have my deepest,
sincerest, and most groveling apologies.  I
thought I had responded to each and every one,
whether the offer was accepted or not.  Even going
through my email archive now, the only messages I
find from you during the offer period reference
one RX sketch set and two Naruto sketches, plus an
inquiry about Itsuki, and I responded to all of
those.  :(

I hope you know me well enough to know that I
would never intentionally leave somebody hanging,
no matter what the situation.  No matter what is
going on in my personal life, there is
always time and consideration left over for
friends.  I certainly wish you had mentioned
Shidou again when you sent payment for Ayato --
then I'd have known that a message had gone
astray.  Nonetheless, many-many apologies for even
inadvertently causing you frustration.  :(

This has been such an incredibly lousy month, all
around.  :(
