I simply want to apologize for my attitude lately. The accumulation of events of the past weeks and more has seemed to give me a bad attitude. I am hot under the collar. At this point, I can't trust my instincts. And I do not understand why really. Nor is TC the place to rumminate on it. I don't really want to post this because I don't want to draw attention to myself. Nor can I be sure this is the right thing to do. I DO NOT want any sort of pat on the back here. I just want to apologize for my attitude and say that I am going to refrain from posting my opinions on TC for awhile until I feel like I am back to normal. I don't know a better way to say that to everybody than this. There are much more important things going on here. I don't want to be a part of the problem on TC, or anywhere. I am usually a firm lighter of candles rather than a curser of darkness. |

You need more bitter drinks. What happens is the build up of 'sweet' causes a temporary lull in the "nice and easy" glands and culminates in an onslaught of "bother." I seen it on the Beverly Hillbillies once. Anyway - bittersweet drinks, like The Test Pilot, cause you to release less "bother" and bring harmony to your inner parts. Or "inards" as Dr. Granny called 'em. |

Thank Goodness! (Not specifically for the apology, mind you, but for the fact that you are changing your mind about leaving. I was getting really sad at the thought of you departing for greener pastures. I value your opinions and contributions. Please stay on awhile. And drink a Missionary's Downfall, per Pablus.) Sabu |

I paraphrase Dr. Granny: "That's the one thing I like about this job... it drives me to drink." |

Whatever you are experiencing that has you feeling this way will pass. You are wise to realise you have not been yourself. And brave to be so upfront with us. I hope this doesn't read like a pat on the back that you didn't want. |

Swank, I have no idea what you are talking about, so I can't comment... But I just followed a link and went over to the Swank Pad, and it is a really neat thing you done there. It's good that you did that! |

Frankly, I'm just glad I'm not the only one who, for whatever reason, goes through "major crabby spells." :) And I mean that in the nicest possible way. XO tikivixen p.s. This is NOT a pat on the back. Think of it as more like, uh, an ice pack for your neck and a cocktail on me. |

Whoa, Swanky! Just took a short visit to your site. Checked out the Spiegle link and American Homes. Nice, nice, nice. One of the neatest sites I've been to for a long while. I'm definitely going back, it's right up my alley. As far as being crabby, I'm glad it's not just me. |

We love you! Plus, your exotica mix cd that I bought is what I use to chill out to when work is eating me alive and I'm super crabby. |

I'm glad you are staying...it wouldn't be the same here without you, Swanky! p.s. I am going to pat pat you on the back because it does take strength to apologize regardless of who was right or wrong. |
