Thank you for the warm wishes. I apologize. I had a knee jerk reaction when I received the letter and I blurted out my feelings. I am one of those people whose self esteem is centered on their work. That's my way of being validated and it is because of the neglect I experienced as a child.

This past year has been devastating to me. I was wrongfully fired from my job that has led to a long drawn out court battle. Access to my two youngest girls has been limited due to baby mama crap. I started mixing meds with alcohol. My health took another turn for the worse and I've had chemo and surgery. I admit I have become very reclusive.

Well, I don't have any other choice. I have to keep putting one foot in front of the other and see what happens on this journey. I sincerely apologize for the drama. I have shared far too much and I need to keep more things to myself.

I'll be taking a little break from the cellar. I'm ok, no one needs to worry. I will check in from time to time.

Wait one bloody minute there, matey-blokey. What the fuck? Seriously. In what universe does our sympathy and friendship mean you have to go silent?

Damnit lad, that's the polar opposite of what anybody here wants. We worry because we care. And people who care generally don't want the person they care about to fuck off into silentsville and stop sharing the immediacy of their lives.

There. Consider yourself told. Please don't make me get on a plane to come over there and slap you. I can't afford it for one thng.

*hugs* I know you're going through the mill right now honey, but please, please don't isolate yourself from us as a response. Talking helps. None of this is 'drama', it is what is happening in your life.

I don't think you need a break Sarge. Its in times like these that we need to bend someones ear.
