Apparently you are back off private, thank goodness, and hopefully over your emptiness for the time being. I TOTALLY understand what you are saying though. Man life really sucks sometimes. It's okay to feel that. And I TOTALLY get the blog thing...I've thought several times about deleting too. Ugh.

If you decide to start one, I'm in too. Life has been all over the map for me as well-sometimes I blog about it but mostly I don't. I prefer to keep things positive too but sometimes you just want to scream on here.

I have thought of you fondly throughout the years, and we had a conversation about religion that was a real turning point in my life.

It brings me back to years when I didn't send out Christmas cards/letters because I'd gained too much weight or didn't have anything good to say about a job situation or that I didn't want to put our address on the card that was STILL an apartment and not a home.
