Yeah… I am here…
So, it’s me. I am alive. Whether or not I am well is a debate for those around me.
I am trying to put into words what has gone on with my site, my domain, my e-mail, and everything else connected to this… but I can’t find words that don’t contain more than 4 letters. But I will tell you - it sounds a lot like, “Muster Truck”…
… see what I am saying?
I will tell you that I cried. Out of sheer frustration and feeling like I am the stupidest computer user in the world. And it occured to me that I am going to have to pay someone to manage this site because I am not smart enough, don’t have enough time, and don’t have the wrought iron gut to go through it all again.
I will say this - to the people who tried to steal my domain and hold it ransom - you suck. And I hope you fall in a sink hole the size of Texas and are surrounded by fire ants.
So I am back - if you are still here, God Bless You. But the thing is - I am going on vacation now. I need it. I am going someplace warm with a pool … where they bring me cocktails by the pool… and food on fancy plates. And where someone will drive me around and take me other places where they serve cocktails and food… and then to other places with more cocktails.
Thank you for sticking with me this far. I’ve just gotten back in my e-mail to get all of your kind words. You’re all awesome.
And if you can wait - I will see you next week. Relaxed, and probably just a teeny bit hungover.

August 14th, 2009 at 12:36 pm
THANK GOD. I was afraid I was going to have to make it through major changes at work without your stories to make me laugh- if I don’t laugh at something I’ll cry from stress and apathy. Have a lovely vacation and I hope the effers that stole your domain burn in hell.
August 14th, 2009 at 4:52 pm
Still here. Having an extra lemon drop on your behalf. Wish I could send one your way.
August 14th, 2009 at 6:13 pm
Mmmm. Food. Cocktails. Vacation.
I’m there!
August 14th, 2009 at 7:20 pm
I’m glad you are alive, I’ve missed you.
Enjoy the vacation, can’t wait to read you when you’ll be back!
August 14th, 2009 at 11:44 pm
well…I’m not much of an afficionado on lemon drops, but I make a damn good sangria…and really….a truly amazing egg nog (something I think doesn’t really need a season…)…so if you’re ever in my neighborhood, I would be happy to make your break a lovely inebriated one!!
August 15th, 2009 at 10:55 am
Of course I’m still around. What would I do without my FW fix - or her alter ego that hangs out at a certain place.
August 15th, 2009 at 8:28 pm
have a drink, get some sun and relax… we’ll be here when you get back.
August 15th, 2009 at 9:05 pm
glad your back, enjoy your vacation.
missed you.
August 15th, 2009 at 9:33 pm
Welcome back, enjoy the vacation, and I can’t wait to hear the whole, sordid tale.
August 16th, 2009 at 2:05 am
So glad you are “okay”. I check every day to see if you are back (no pressure). You’ve been missed, sorry people suck…I’ll keep my fingers crossed for that sink hole.
August 16th, 2009 at 8:46 am
I will never understand why some people are the way they are. Well, all people, really, but mostly I mean the f*ckers like the ones who put you through the wringer. Enjoy an extra cosmo for me.
August 16th, 2009 at 11:38 am
Hope you have a fabulous vacation and can’t wait to read more of your stories — and just know that the people who tried to hijack your domain will find karma coming around to bite them on the butt at some point!
August 16th, 2009 at 1:45 pm
Welcome back! Nil Carborundum Illegitimum! Enjoy your chill time and come back refreshed and ready to slay some dragons (aka Mother-of the Bride).
August 16th, 2009 at 6:03 pm
So glad you are back! Have a great vacation, relax, and drink a lot of lemon drops!
August 16th, 2009 at 11:11 pm

August 17th, 2009 at 2:54 pm
So glad you’re back.
August 18th, 2009 at 11:46 am
Goodness, sounds like a vacation and lots of sun and LDM are just what the doctor ordered.
Boo and hiss and threatening karma for those who have tried to harm you!
We’ll all send healing and soothing thoughts and anticipate lots of nice new stories on your return to Crazy Town.
August 18th, 2009 at 10:27 pm
Glad to know you are okay. Have a relaxing, restful vacation, drink a lemon drop for all of us, and we will see you next week!
August 21st, 2009 at 1:20 pm
Thank Goodness you’re back! We’ve missed you!
August 28th, 2009 at 12:01 pm
I’ve been away, and just got back here myself. I hope you have a great vacation and come back rested and ready to give ‘em whatever. Remember, “that which doesn’t kill me makes me stronger”. You must be reallyreally strong by now.
We’ll save your place. Just come back stronger. Just come back.
August 29th, 2009 at 6:49 am
Wow, have you been missed! I hope that you can come back recharged (’tanned, rested and ready’? to steal a quote).
You were one of my most favorite morning stops before and I recommended reading your blog to a friend who tricks.
September 4th, 2009 at 11:52 am
You still have readers! I’m sorry you had to go through that, but I hope you enjoy your vacation!
