So here they are (in alphabetical order so as not to disturb the force):

Andrew � is Jess� big brother. He defies introduction just because he�s my favorite. If you know him, you�ll understand. You can find him here.

B� my stepbrother. He�s a year younger than me. He�s a lot like I used to be and it frustrates me. He�s not around a lot and when he is he doesn�t really say much. I�m concerned for him and I really do want to help him out. I just don�t really know how to do that.

Channy � is my ex-roommate and one of my closest friends. She is Sunshine�s younger sister and Patrick�s fianc�e. She�s small and quiet and fierce. She stands up for what she believes in. She�s one of the few unassuming people I know, taking people at face value. You can find her here.

Erin � is the stepsister who�s a year older than me. She�s incredibly smart and incredibly sweet, and I�m not just saying that because she might read this. She�s pretty reserved and contemplative. I�ve learned a lot from her. She�s a great friend.You can find her here.

Gayle � is the stepmother who is so the opposite of evil. She�s incredibly sweet and thoughtful and caring; so much so that sometimes I worry I�m taking advantage of her kindness. She�s great for my dad and an all around good person.

J � V�s husband and my brother-in-law. He�s a really great guy, even if he is a bit on the dorky side. He�d do just about anything for his family. He�s American, smokes a pipe, likes hunting, and is extremely conservative, but I don�t hold that against him (too much)

Jess � is so complicated. Our relationship is really beyond words; we�ve known each other so long. 10 years. She likes to think of herself as an enigma, but its more than that. She�s just as confused as the rest of us. She�s contemplative and crazy fun too. You can find her here.

(the) Jujee � aka mom, though I find this name to be far more appropriate most days.

Kay � is the newest member of my family, my baby niece by way of V and J. Sweetest little thing on two legs

Paige � is a fellow diarylander who found me first. She was one of the first to respond to my crazy blogging. She�s extremely entertaining even though she doesn�t update very much anymore. You can find her here.

Patrick � is Channy�s fianc� and long time boyfriend. He a little long winded and a little bore-ific sometimes, but he�s really good to Channy and she loves him. He�s a good guy, even if he is a little hard to take sometimes.

Ry�n � another one of my high school buddies. He�s the skirt-chasing free spirit of the group. He�s always cracking jokes and making me laugh. Ry�n loves video games almost as much as he loves girls. He�s an energetic happy-go-lucky guy and one of my best friends.

Sai � is my first and only nephew so far. He never stops making me smile. I can�t wait to see what he�s like when he grows up. He�s brilliant (and I�m not the least bit biased)!

Shaun � is my not-so anonymous superhero. He�s another of my online friends who owes me a tour of his country someday. He makes me smile everyday and is just an all around great guy. We�ve got a lot in common, which is why he�s my cartoon buddy. You can find him here.

Skim � my younger stepsister. She�s brutally honest and a little self centered (but who isn't at that age). She doesn�t take crap from people and almost always gets what she wants from life. I love that she�s so strong.

Sunshine � She is Channy�s sister and part of my "adopted" family. I used to live in her basement and that�s pretty much how we became good friends. She�s one of the most entertaining people I know. She�s like the big sister I never had� no wait� like my funnier, better looking, slightly older twin.

V � She�s my only biological sibling. V is my older sister and one of the most complex people I know. We never used to get along, but now that we�re adults we�re starting to understand each other better. She�s married to J and has a son (Sai) and a daughter (Kay). She�s a Christian and inspires me to be better than I am.

Zian � When we met in grade seven, he hit me over the head with his binder. We were destined to be friends. He�s deep and profound and incredibly impulsive. That�s what I love best about him. He�s got a quirky sense of humor and a great imagination.
