Some of you will consider it a relief, and will openly voice that. Some of you will doubt it, and say that within a week I'll be back. A lot of you said the same of Ryan. Where is he now?
My best to Susan - she got what she wanted. She got attention. I hope those who have seen her mental health history will know what to do with her ravings. If not, you'll find out soon enough.
Jacqueline, I appreciate everything you've done. You were never the villain, and you never will be, and I'm sorry it all got taken out on you by everyone else.
My special thanks to Pudding, daveake, and those who denigrated me in the past. You kept me level-headed, and I'm learning. Also gave me great practice at arguments, and helped me realize a lot about myself that I now aim to correct in my time away. I've burned a lot of bridges in my time, and I regret now that I burned them. In a different situation, were I not so crazy, we all might have been friends.
My other thanks goes to Ryan, who has done more for me than I can ever repay and will still be reading those words (I never said he didn't read it), and to those who supported my dreams (in futility, as it turned out). Maybe one of these days, I will actually produce something of Jim's. But until that day comes, don't hold your breath. It will come, that I know.
Last of all, quoting the title of a recent George Clooney film, I have this to say to those who choose to stay: Good night, and good luck.
Thank you.
