this doesn't seem to be much fun for me anymore. i find myself censoring myself everytime i think about writing. it's not me anymore. i've made some great friends here and even met some very, very special people in person -- dan, dana, kathyhowe. i'm grateful for that. i'm happy that i can look back at some of my entries and be proud. i'm just having a hard time "producing." there's a bitter taste in my mouth.
we're thinking about shutting down the site. we'll let you know.
life is especially sweet right now. things are going great with us and our kids. my job ended last year, and now i work handling billing and other things for bill. bill has pared down his practice a lot (cut out tedious, non-profitable time), and the practice is going better than ever. we work side by side here out of the loft, and bill works one day a week at a client's site on a special project. working together is wonderful -- we're having a blast. all on our own time. a dream job for both of us. i've even overheard bill saying the same thing. ;-)
jax is great. he's 8 months clean already and should be back in cleveland soon.
matt and mel are awesome. matt will be dr. lang in another two years, and nothing can hold mel back! she'll be ceo of some big company someday. they are a delight to be around, so happy and well-matched. i adore them.
mark and sarah are planning their september wedding. sarah is finishing up her pastry chef training, and mark loves his job. they LOVE california, dammit. :-(
see? i've resorted to "icons." meh. how low can i go?
i've closed comments on this post. it DOES look pretty funny when you open the blank comments box, given the title of this post. e-mail me, k?
ONE MORE THING:
i got an email from a bloggy friend earlier this morning saying that she totally got what bill was saying on something he had posted this morning, but she thought some people might not "get" it in the way he intended. i looked at it; and i, too, understood what point he was trying to make but agreed that "some" might not. i was in the middle of unpublishing the post at bill's direction (i texted him about it as he wasn't around. he was going to change it a little so that his point was better understood) when a comment came in. here's my response to the comment:
"duh-fucking-duh."
one: it really pisses me off when people react without taking in the context of what they know about you. you have to assume that a) they don't know you, b) they're stupid, or c) both of the above.
two: don't freaking lecture me or bill. it's a mistake. a) he's smarter than you, b) i'm smarter than you, AND c) what the fuck?
do NOT email me.
