out for a bit
« on: September 21, 2008, 08:20:53 PM »
I am really dragged out, worn out, and am going to be away for a few days.

This is not meant as a "downer" of a thread; just a statement of intention, and made here rather than in the moderators' forum, so that the lurking primitives don't think they chased franksolich away.

I am just so drained, at the conclusion of 24 days of fear, confusion, and panic--during which time I did little else--I need to "go blank" for a while, a few days, so as to get the batteries recharged.  I've been through this sort of thing before, and it has always pleased God that out of tragedy and despair arises new hope and accomplishment soaring past what had been done before.

Take care Frank...you will be missed.

Many hugs to you.
Just hand over the chocolate...back away slowly...far away....and you won't get hurt....

Save the Earth... it's the only planet with chocolate.

I was wondering how you were doing.  Figured you'd want to take some time to rest.

Refresh and recharge, Coach.

We'll be here manning the fort.

Rest well, weary soul, for your rewards await on the other side of slumber.

What she said. Everyone understands that need to just be alone and make sense of things.

Take your time, frank.  Everyone needs it sometimes.  Take care, and hurry back!

Hurry back boss!

The Primitives will get lonely without their interpreter and resident anthroliberist. :)

Take as long as you need Frank, but you will be missed.

Hugs, Frank.   Take some time to heal.  We'll keep a light on for you.

"Go and come back!"

That's what my Italian grandmother would say. Feel better.
Let nothing trouble you,
Let nothing frighten you. 
All things are passing;
God never changes.
Patience attains all that it strives for.
He who has God lacks nothing:
God alone suffices.
--St. Theresa of Avila

Rest and recharge. We'll watch for flying embers from the campfires.
I can see November 2 from my house!!!

Forget change, bring back common sense.

No, my friends, there’s only one really progressive idea. And that is the idea of legally limiting the power of the government. That one genuinely liberal, genuinely progressive idea — the Why in 1776, the How in 1787 — is what needs to be conserved. We need to conserve that fundamentally liberal idea. That is why we are conservatives. --Bill Whittle
