You are all so kind and your messages are truly appreciated. Truly. I take them all to heart. And trust me when I say that none of you have ever hurt me or offended me . . .well, some have but I have big balls. I need you to understand that I'm an old whore of the web. I've been surfing since its beginning and now I'm at a point where it just bores the hell out of me. Wanna know what I did today? . . .I made banana bread and read over half a book . . .daily acts I used to do before I became obsessed with the Web, and I spent some time with my man . . .we talked as we have done over the last month. I started this un-connection in the late fall and I've LIVE more outside of the Net. I realized that a
minute on the Net (I'm not judging anyone) is in reality ten minutes spent. I've got things to do. Yes . . .things to do and each minute is needed.
Flake . . .I never meant to hurt you and when I unfriend EVERYBODY of Facebook . . .I hurt others because I just did it and didn't explain before hand. I never thought I meant so much. I didn't think I'd be missed, but, I was and I had to do a lot of explaining. Hurting another is something I don't ever want to do.
. . .and DJ, we will always do the Oscars. I thought about you as we watched the Golden Globes last night. . .maybe we need to do a yearly thread for that too. I love the acting award shows. Such style. DJ, if you watched did you see Kate Hudson's dress? Banging!
I will miss your hilarious and timely comments. Please drop us one every now and then when the moment is ripe.Hey guys. This is a note to let you all know that I won't be around much. Ah . . .call me a retired Beta Tester. I will always check in but I won't post as much and it really is, 'Not You, It's Me.' I have unfriend everyone from my Facebook account and I'm using the Net differently . . .a lot differently.
But, I will still post pretty art and photos and my thoughts on books.
I am making a 'conscious uncoupling' from the web --I still eat meat and DJ, we have a standing Oscar Night date.
I've been active on the Net since the beginning and I'm tired . . .it's just mean. It isn't mean here but I still have to deal with the News Reports here. And, that's cool . . .t'ain't nothin' I can do about that and I don't hold anyone at fault. It is the world now. Media shapes most minds.
I'm going to use the web differently now. That is all, My Dear Hearts.
Trust me . . .if you are ailing and you are my friend . . .I will know and I will Talk To You.

Yeah, I know. I've been Out ofOrd- town since December 28, but I'm back in working order now. I hope everyone had a great "slide" into 2015!
Hey, I spent my Christmas Eve with my head in the toilet - and it wasn't from alcohol. Sooooooooooo not fun being given an extra-special super-duper bug right before the Fat Man's visit. Christmas Day was better but I was off my chow for about three days afterwards. Bleh.I see what you almost did there......
You missed The Happy New Yak thread. Wasn't one of my best efforts, but I was still hungove...I mean tired from the holidays....

However, New Year's Eve was a blast - literally! Fireworks and sparklers and lots of good food.
This is why i've been only dabbling around myself lately... the world is a wound that never quite heals and well, if walking in the other direction eases the pain for awhile then there's really no other choice.
my love to you, my friend <3
Sorry to hear you were sick, but glad you rebounded in time for New Year's!!
Your Avatar makes me dizzy.......

No pressure.
And all the best for a well-deserved and thoughtful "time-out" from electronica. I totally get it. I've gone months away from this website as well as other parts of the Internet and have benefited from my time away.
All good thoughts, vibes, and prayers coming to you from north of the state line.
Heck yes I watched! I made a comment in random thoughts about the night. Kate seems to be THE ONE that stole the night with her outfit. I will watch those shows till the day I die. I was waiting for a Memoriam, did they not do one or did I miss it?

I hear you, Mack. I spend way too much time online (almost all of it right here). It's one in a list of my bad habits. "Do all things in moderation" is wisdom.

You're one of the kindest and most loving people I've ever met online. I'll miss you terribly. Be safe and happy, MM.
