RL's been a bitch this summer, and I've said and done things that have hurt people I care for. Time to go away and try try to find the calm center in my storm (again).

I might be back, I'll probably be back: Just don't know if or when.

Goin' Away For To Leave You - Kingston Trio

Well, I'm goin' away for to leave you. might not come back any
More (more, more)
If I never more see your face again, then it's honey on that far
Distant, distant shore. honey on that far distant shore.

Well, now, I'm goin' down to Louisville, just to ride on the
River boat.
Gotta keep bailin' all night long just to keep the darn boat
Afloat.

Well, I'm goin' away for to leave you. might not come back any
More (more, more)
If I never more see your face again, then it's honey on that far
Distant, distant shore. honey on that far distant shore.

Here is where I was born and raised, where the cold, cold north
Wind blows.
But I'm goin' back to old Kentucky where my good gal only
Knows.

Well, I'm goin' away for to leave you. might not come back any
More (more, more)
If I never more see your face again, then it's honey on that far
Distant, distant shore. honey on that far distant shore.

Keep a light in your window. keep it burnin' bright.
Someday I might come a-knockin' at your door. baby, I'll treat
You right.

Well, I'm goin' away for to leave you. might not come back any
More (more, more)
If I never more see your face again, then it's honey on that far
Distant, distant shore. honey on that far distant shore.

If you gotta go

you gotta go.

The calm centre of my storm - oh, I wish I'd found that years ago.

We'll miss you and hope it's not too long before you're back with us.

why don't you stay and resolve your difficulties? I'm sure it's what your Viking ancestors would have done.

Before or after?

Before or after raping and pillaging?

Just kidding - as many of you know, I too am having to face some of my own issues right now, but I agree that standing up to them is the only way to do it.

Having said that, a little introspection can be good for the soul. Perhaps leaving isn't necessary, but rather just take some time to yourself and look deep down inside at yourself. Do you like what you see there? What needs to be changed?

I find that putting my thoughts into words quite often helps - in fact, writing this is helping me. I also find that when I do put my thoughts into words I quite often get some very good advice from my friends (yes, Ang, I am referring to you right now), as well as some often desperately needed support.

There is a time to retreat, and there is a time to dig in and hold. Perhaps this is the time to stand fast and hold the line.

Remember, it's pillage, burn,

Remember, it's pillage, burn, THEN rape. It's much more romantic by firelight.


I'll get a life when it's proven and substantiated to be better than what I'm currently experiencing.

Well, the burn thing isn't too smart. I mean how will they accumulate riches of you to pillage if they're busy rebuilding their houses? On the other hand, maybe you're right...

Hm... I guess it sucks when

Hm... I guess it sucks when you hurt people, but once in a while it happens. Not sure if going away is really going to help, but it's your decision. I hope you'll be back though.
