And yes, it is true that you have not really been ignoring me.
But there was thing in your post I forgot that's really important, so if you allow me the indulgence of just one more post....
You said "You'll thank me someday"....
And you know what...you are right, there is something that I am thankful for...
You have given me a most tremendous gift and that gift has been mine for the last month.
It is the gift of peace. I have pretty much been able to have some normal conversations and the last month has been relatively devoid of pissing matches.
It has been very peaceful here, and I have been able to talk issues and just focus on them.
Thank you, Opinionated, for the gift of peace that you gave me.
Now may peace be upon you and may it be your gift as well.
Okay, now I'm finished. You can ignore or respond as you see fit...but it's a given that you will be reading.
