hiding all away...

i have been away a long time. i didn't plan it, it just happened.

three things have kept me away.

1. i got sick. really sick. so sick, i demanded the doctor give me tests. which is so not me. i spent the whole weekend worrying and it turned out all i had was a virus. but a bad one. it's funny, once my tests came back negative, i got really, really, really sick. one night i woke up at midnight, and lay in bed for four hours shivering because i could not get warm. i could not make it out of bed to turn up the heat, get a blanket or put on more clothes. i seriously pondered sticking a note on goober's head and trying to get him to get help. sadly, i realized goober is no lassie.

2. super busy. both at my latest contract job and going to shows around town.

3. a very very bad online blogging experience. the reason my blog went private. i hated doing that but i could see no other option. i may or may not have to do this again. so, for all of my readers, please send me an email and i will officially invite you to read my blog. that way, you can always access it, no matter what is going on.

but i feel i am ready to return now. i've missed all of you.

Oh my gosh. I am so sorry about 1 and 3. Number 3 makes me want to smack unknown horrible blogger.

I'm with Steph, you were missed. It's for lines like this, "i seriously pondered sticking a note on goober's head and trying to get him to get help. sadly, i realized goober is no lassie," that I come here for.

Sorry to hear you had a bad blogging experience. One of the reasons I shut down my last blog, so I know how it feels.

I hope you are feeling better now, good to have you back! :)

So glad to have you back again! I'm guessing Goober also did not bring you bowls of chicken soup or anything. Man, dogs are self-centered!

I hope all goes well from now on.

barbara - no soup, no juice, no nothing. bad dog! bad dog!

No soup, no juice, no nothing! I wonder if obedience school teaches such things?
