			It has been two weeks since I threw my hands up in the air and decided to leave this place.  I have been so busy with my new kid and new job that I havent even found the time to lurk.  It is amazing the amount of time one can waste online. I did a lot of thinking and realized that I really didnt want to leave here on a bad note. MR you have really been a good friend to me over the past year and maybe one day a lot later from now I will get on to say hi. I still feel the way I said I felt but I wish I said it without all of the spitting and name calling. This place has changed but it isnt for me to decide if it is for the worse or not. This is the 2nd big meltdown I had on this forum and I really dont have anything to say for myself other than I am sorry. *shrug* Mods are getting too fat anyways...good to exercise them a bit once in a while.  At the time I was sort of hoping I did get banned so I wouldnt have to come back to apologize after I calmed down.  Now that the smoke is all clear I am happy that I can come back and get a little closure. This place is great and you guys are great but it really is my time to boogie out of here. God bless you all...especially the atheists.  ------------- Emylee ate her first bite of real food today. My 9 year old daughter told me that she hated me for the first time. My son is real sick. My wife and I started dog shopping for a new dog. My two year old still like Dora. I am still drinking the horse piss. Life goes on. I am using this as a chance to get back into the real world a little more. Thank you all for the laughs and tears. I will miss you guys. Last edited by Alexander Turcic; 03-16-2011 at 04:12 AM. |

			Don't know what happened as I've only just discovered the P&R place but sad to see you go H_T. Hope you'll drop by now and again to regale us with tales of normalism!

			I was sad to see you leave the first time, and I am again sad to see you  leave again. Keep healthy, keep your family close, and remember that the "Welcome" mat is always there for you. Hoping that life is a wonderful journey for you and yours. Cheers Nohmi |

			Thank you, happy_terd, for coming back and saying goodbye in a calmer mood. I've seen your meltdown in the P&R. Enjoy your real life - that's the one that counts!

 I saw you had posted and got excited now I see it was just a big tease. Thanks for stopping in though, now if you would just do it on a daily basis that'd be even better. KK is right, the P&R forum is a train wreck (and I only got there once in a while), the problem is that too much of it got carried over to other forums and it shouldn't have. Maybe the P&R forum should have all anonymous posts!! Here's hoping you don't stay gone too long, if so then, if I make to California before it falls into the ocean, we'll get together for a beer and we can talk bad about all the people that have views we don't agree with  One of the best dogs we ever had came from the pound!! | |

			HT I couldn't believe you had left. I'll miss you and your great sense of humour. Wishing you the very best in the future with your lovely family. Hope to see you back here sometime in the near future. Take care friend. Warmest wishes Mag. |
