**Still holding door open so HD can just walk out**

Will you turn out the lights when he leaves? I'm going to bed.

Look at me
Look at me
I am changing, tryin' every way I can
I am changing, I'll be better than I am
I'm trying-to find a way to understand
But I need you, I need you-I need a hand

I am changing, seeing everything so clear now
I am changng, I'm gonna start right now, right here
I'm hoping to work it out, and I know that I can
But I need you, I need a hand

All my life I've been a fool
Who said I could do it all alone
How many good friends have I already lost
How many dark nights have I known

Walking down that wrong road, there was nothing I could find
All those years of darkness-can make a person blind
But now I can see

I am changing, tryin every way I can
I am changing, I'll be better than I am
But I need a friend-to help me start all over again,
oh-that would be just fine
I know it's gonna work out this time
'Cause this time I am-This time I am

I am changing, gonna get my life together now
I am changing, yes, I know how
I'm gonna start again, I'm leaving my past behind
I'll change my life-I'll make a vow
And nothing's gonna stop me now...hey

**Pushes HD out the door, unimpressed he knows lyrics to a show tune. Shuts door**

Now this is actually painful.

You might want to delete that before you find you hate yourself in the morning.

What do you mean?

**Shuts out lights and goes upstairs to bed, so I don't have to listen to the dog whine outside the door**

I am sure am glad that Marty and CC did not turn their backs on Effie, and I know that not everyone here will turn their back on me.

It's just embarassing. I actually feel a little embarassed for you.

I understand that in my last long post in the thread I brought up some points and issues that might be very difficult to face and digest and turn into action steps and I guess I can see how at times like those, when our own words fail us, we think a Hallmark card or the lyrics to a song express what we really feel better than we can. But then a few days later, we look back, and we're embarassed by the sentiment.

But hey, at the end of the day, has anybody ever spent as much time thinking about you and writing down their honest gut reactions to you as I have done in this thread?

It sure would be awkward, yet not surprising, if somebody else is occupying the HD screen name in the morning and going on the attack as if never having read any of it.

Night, John Boy!

""It's just embarassing. I actually feel a little embarassed for you.""

Is that a personal attack? I thought you were about to agree with me about not attacking each other personally.

Well, I was hoping anyway.

I have to confess, I don't understand why all this interaction is perpetuated.

It's patently obvious and proven that this person is, shall we say, unhinged.

So what is the point in continuing on with all this interaction? It doesn't change - it just keeps circling back on itself showing the same thing over and over and over . . .

Now, I get it if it's just mental masturbation. But, this isn't even giving anyone new scenarios to investigate.

Ultimately, I just wish that, if it is to keep going ad nauseum as it seems to be, PLEASE add some new dimension.

[FindingNamo]

Posted: 7/29/07 at 1:05am

First of all, what?

Second of all, huh?

Honest to god, if you're actually serious with asking me if that's a personal attack, then that makes you the most overly sensitive delicate flower I have ever encountered. So far, far beyond the kind of thing that people like Rush Limbaugh make such sport of for their "sensitivities."

You oughta know by now that I'm the type of person you don't have to ASK if he's just attacked. You know it.

ETA DG, I took the time tonight because I figured I was so pissed off that he had to look to see if he had ever thanked me for my "kindness" right before attacking me, that I would S-P-E-L-L it all out for him in as clear a way as possible.

I can't say I have high hopes that it'll amount to anything. But I believe that time marches on and life is inherently progressive.

I was just giving my honest reaction. I think you are saying that you don't mean it as an attack, so I won't take it as one.

I was also giving my honest reaction with the song lyrics.

Namo - you obviously have MUCH more patience than I - I gave up LONG ago.

[FindingNamo]

Posted: 7/29/07 at 1:23am

Like I said in the thread, it's like a biorhythm thing. Today I just happened to have the patience.

Although, I have to say, HD, you know you're in trouble when the closest this board comes to a person with Anne Frank's "I still believe people are basically good" philosophy, DG, has run out of patience.

Also, you say you're changing. Like anything else, change reveals itself over time. Do you think the other people who post using that account will be changing too?

[DG]

Posted: 7/29/07 at 1:59am

Namo - this will pretty much seal my fate around these parts (oh, damn,) but I'm pretty much like Anne IF she had lived. Youthful naivte has given way to a much needed wake-up call - it's about time, huh? - and I couldn't possibly have less interest or energy for inanity.

This whole 'board thing' was an experiment for me, and it has obviously gone horribly awry. I'll be waiting to see if it can take the next step into REAL human communication.

Until then, I'll just throw my bull**** around like everyone else, and not really care who or what is involved.

When you good nights have been said

And you are lying in bed

With the covers pulled up tight

And though you count every sheep

You get the feeling that sleep

Is going to stay away tonight.

That's when you hear it coming

That is when you hear the humming of the

Starlight Express, Starlight Express,

Are you real, yes or no?

Starlight Express, answer me yes.

I don't want you to go.

Want you to take me away

But bring me home before daylight

And in the time between

Take me to everywhere

But don't abandon me there

Just want to say I've been.

I believe in you completely

Though I may be dreaming sweetly of the

Starlight Express, answer me yes.

I don't want you to go.

And if you're there

And if you know

Then show me which way

I should go.

Starlight Express, Starlight Express,

Are you real, yes or no?

Starlight Express, answer me yes.

I don't want you to go.

I think someone lost a couple of these.





Lambchop, you alright?



Or are all those nasty hinges falling around you making you even more twitchy and unsettled?

[PalJoey]

Lambchop was 17 inches?

I'M impressed.

I am changing, gonna get my life together now
I am changing, yes, I know how
I'm gonna start again, I'm leaving my past behind
I'll change my life-I'll make a vow
And nothing's gonna stop me now...hey

anyone care to join me in a unison refrain of the above lyric?

Apparently, there is good reason to call the adult male a Ram.
