I cannot understand drama queens on forums who go into this song and dance about leaving a forum. If you want to go, do so. Just don't read the message board or post on it any more. It's very simple and easy to do. Or perhaps they're attention seekers. Who knows?
I decided to check on the replies. I said I am not leaving for good, but rather, scaling back my participation on WrongPlanet. It's not like Werbert. I'd just notify people. I've actually been scaling back on posts for a little while lately, and I decided, in case people were like "Where were you?" (I had one like that from One-Winged Angel). I can see from your post that you have a very high opinion of me....
I have no intention of trolling for sympathy. I am stating facts to those who may wonder what I am doing...

but who will I argue with about gun control?
I've (unfortunately for you) grown tired of debate. It's selfish for me to say so, but debate's no fun if I don't win.

Some interests wax and wane, sometimes we need more time for other things.
That's pretty much it. I'm trying to find something else to fill the void in my life. Currently, it's the Rik Mayall and Ade Edmondson series "Bottom". And 8-Bit Theater.
I am just pretty listless at the moment. My anxiety attacks with necrophobia have gone, although it still is at the back of my mind. I'm trying to find a subject for a Masters Degree in Medical Research. I am trying to fit more exercise into my routine. I found a snake in my pool (no kidding, I might put THAT anecdote in another thread). I have an interview for a job soon, and I had to knock another job back because of transport problems. (Night shift in Brisbane, trains don't run that late)
I also must confess something. I am helping a young girl who has also just been diagnosed with Asperger's. Her family immigrated from England a little while ago, and bought my dad's business. I have babysitted their two daughters a few times, but the eldest one just got diagnosed. I'm hoping I can help her. Maybe she might end up here, on this forum.
