Still February

Feel free to ignore this post if it makes you uncomfortable.  It makes me uncomfortable.

Some of my fellow bloglodytes remember why I started this blog.  It was an outlet, and a dumping ground for feelings that didn't have anywhere else to go.  It was also, and I hope has been, a place to heal, grow and become less whiny.  To try and shift my focus and energies onto something more productive than being sad.  But it's nearly March, and I'm finding it difficult.  I know some of you guys now, in a pixilated, ethernetty sort of way,  so it doesn't feel like I'm just dumping my negativity into the nowhere anymore; it feels like I'm dumping it on people, and I'm sorry about that, but it's got to get out, or I'll explode and the mess in my office will be even bigger.  So I'm trying to keep writing, trying to get everything ready for Thirdling's BD party, and just generally trying to keep my chin up, but I suspect I will not be my usual barrel of laughs this month.

Let's blame my overuse of commas on present circumstances, shall we?
Over and out.

So sorry you're feeling sad. I wasn't there at the beginning of your blog but I count you as a friend now and supporting friends when they feel crap is what it's about!

I might be pixelated but I'm here if you need me. (My email address is on my blog.)

I have a couple of semicolons spare if that helps at all.

Thanks, prickles. I know you are a friend. To be fair, no one was here at the beginning of my blog. I was writing to the air, which was better than nothing.

Anyways, I know this will pass, but some days are just harder than others. I'm convinced it would all be a little bit easier if the weather would cooperate, though. A bit of spring goes a long way.
Until then; I will borrow some of Sylvia's semicolons; just to punctuate things a bit...

A bit of sunshine always helps; if only we could put in an order for some.

I've taken all of your commas and rearranged them into a party hat for you to wear.

Unfortunately, in order for you to take up my offer, you'll have to

a) shrink
b) fly to the UK or become intangible
c) risk being earmarked as a thrill seeker

but hey — what else is there to do in March?

See my blog for further thoughts on what has been a particularly grizzly February...

Prickles, recent picture posted from an acquaintance in Oz leads me to believe they are hogging it all.

Whirl, 'shrink' is unlikely if I'm to keep up my reputation as a donut decimator. Thrill-seeker; well, not my style. I take intangible for 500, please. Care to join me?

Well that's just plain mean of them!
