Welcome back Sally! (sorry for the late reply, even if I resubscribed, I'm still
busy with real life :( )

I'm fine thanks. I'm currently working on two new projects. In fact, those are
not really new, I ressucitated them when, during a day of hard cleaning and
exploring my papers, I found some notes about languages I had invented a few
years ago (when I was around 15 I think). One of them is a Romance language,
which looks a little like a langue d'oc (I'll send a post about it later this
week I think). The other is quite strange: I found papers full of my writing,
describing a really nice language (in my opinion :) ) with really interesting
features (it was strange to find it with papers so old, my linguistic knowledge
was quite small at that time), but I had absolutely no memory of having ever
worked on that language (and I still don't have!). So it was as if I was
discovering the grammar of a totally unknown language, with the disturbing fact
that it's my writing without a doubt! This was so strange that I decided to
ressucitate the language immediately, and as it seemed to have no name (at least
I couldn't find any on the notes), I decided to call it O, to reflect the state
of my memory about it :)) . I'm still wondering how I cannot remember when I
invented this language the first time...
