Hi, fellow Moonlightaholics.
I know... it was hard, and sad, and I drank a whole bottle of wine and cried on my long-suffering husband. It wasn't fair. We were robbed of all the stories we might have gotten. We were robbed of Mick and Beth, and maybe Coraline again. We never got to find out what that list of names would get Talbot to do. (By the way... am I the only one who just hated Talbot? Who the heck did he think he was, anyway?? But I digress.)
I know.
It should have been so much more. In a fair world, it would have been. But it was what it was. 
This crazy year, when we are stuck in our homes and we are hearing so many tragic stories and we are wondering if we'll lose a loved one, I am tending to look on the bright side of losing Moonlight a dozen years ago. (Don't ask me why. I have no idea. I just write what comes into my head, and this is what came into my head tonight.) We got a pretty neatly tied-up package (bless you, writers!), with lots of tantalizing bits of unanswered questions to make us want to figure out what the answers might be. We got a whole boatload of inspiration that led us to write, and learn how to edit videos, and figure out exactly what those song lyrics were, and make beautiful banners. We made friends all over the world, and some of us lucky ones got to meet some of those friends.
We reached out, way out, of our comfort zone. And we learned that, even if you don't win, the effort is worth making. I'm not sorry about one bit of that magical, crazy, obsessed time. I wouldn't change one moment. I feel blessed to have fallen in love with Moonlight, and I feel blessed to this day to have you, my friends, to talk to and share with and remember with. Remember that Bif Naked song? "We are the lucky ones, dear." My dears, I do feel lucky. I feel grateful for the whole thrill ride. I am content to be here, even in lockdown, with all of you. I'm glad you still come to this forum, even if you never say a word. I'm a happy little Moonlightaholic tonight.
Happy 12th Sonata-versary, everybody. I'm glad we're on this roller coaster together. I couldn't ask for a better team.
when I watch it now I notice how Moonlight is showing it’s age. Kinda how when we watch old shows on TVLand. 
But I still love it. And I love how this site is still around for us. My Alex sites are just about gone, and who knows when we will see him again, but H50 and SOTB got me thru my Alex fix, and I finally got my long desired pic of us together one awesome night at SOTB. Don’t want to lose him, but what can we do? Thank you for this site Alle. 
I did like the end of God Friended Me.
I am back to re-reading a lot of these wonderful Moonlight stories again (while quarantined). It's been a long time and I'm 12 years older so I don't remember them so well anymore. 
So it's like reading a new story for me.
