Not good enough my friend. Not good enough by a long shot. You know who we are. We aren't the kind of people you just dump and run. Period.
We are all adult enough in this little circle of friends (that is what we are you know) to handle real explanations and certainly deserve a bit of warning.
I know that you will read this eventually and you should know that I am pissed. Just as a friend would be.

As am I, Emm... What the hell!
ReplyDeleteBut that will pass I'm sure. Come back when you're ready. You know where to find us.
I might saw off the back of the rocker on his rocking chair though.
DeleteSeems fair.
DeleteWhy?
ReplyDeleteOur friend has jumped overboard and swam to friendly islands before without telling us. I understand your temporary anger, if that's the right word, GT. I think Ms. S and I are perhaps more bewildered. Again, not a word outside of a crude, indirect farewell, which hints at a very quick rising of feelings and emotions and a rapid, no-choice response. Oh hell, I'll ping you off-line.
He's never just cut all ties before though. Therein lies the difference.
DeleteI so much wanted to talk about soup if not deer burgers.
ReplyDeleteTrue enough! I've no idea if anyone commented on my soupiness... Well I know Goliath did because he told me & I went to see. But otherwise there might've been throngs of people from all corners of the Interwebs commenting. & now we'll never know...
DeleteIf everyone is game, and Joey does not come back, I will see about starting a new one.
DeleteCan't say I am surprised
ReplyDeleteDo, GT. Be forewarned, though, the administrator's job does not come without challenge, responsibility and difficulty as we have seen. If you disappoint you will incur the wrath of a very small (at this point) group and you will be found swinging through your favorite trees and duly punished.
ReplyDeleteCheney's water-boarding is nothing compared to the being tickled to death.
If you find yourself slipping away, the demons overwhelm and no answers to all questions just cry out.
When I got the message, I tried to reply and thank him for being such an amazing friend, listening to me and kindly advising me when I was in a much darker place. But my reply never reached him.
ReplyDeleteThat hurt. So definite.
I know what you mean, Kit.
DeleteI'll not be gone for long, but when I come back, I will be me. Hiding behind an online persona isn't precisely the healthiest thing in the world.
ReplyDeleteI apologize for killing the blog. I didn't realize that the entire thing would die....
And no. Tobias isn't the new me. I just wanted to leave one last note.
I'm utterly flummoxed at this point.
DeleteActually, if this is you, you can recover the blog within 90 days and either turn over admin to the new you or have multiple admins.....
DeleteYou are now the admin. This feels better. When I realized that I deleted everyone's stuff, I felt shitty.
DeleteI'll be around, but not for a while.
