I am so Sorry
« on: June 15, 2010, 04:59:31 PM »
While I haven't slept for 36  hours, I am seeing myself more clearly than I have in years. 
I don't like what I see.
I've been shallow, selfish, egotistical, rude, self-centered, arrogant, pushy, domineering. inconsiderate, cold, and not a team player.  In essence A jerk!
I need to get sober so I can see myself this clearly without the help of others.

I apologize to all of you for my behavior.  Particularly: Mike, Tom, Dave, Hugman, Sarah, Bonnie, Bob and anyone else I may have hurt, insulted, slighted, mocked (this is making me sick to my stomach).  For a guy who claims to care about the truth, I sucked at seeing it in myself, until now.

I won't be bothering you anymore.  I have a lot of soul-searching, hard work and growing up to do. 

I humbly ask all of you for your forgiveness. 

I want to express my gratitude to all of you for snapping my eyes open.

Once again, I am sorry for what I did in this beautiful community.

I going to do my best to make amends.


Forgive me.

Wait, what?

edit: If this is about getting sober, a 12-step thing, then of course, you've got my support. But from where I'm sitting, you've only ever helped the show, and the community.

Yeah, Frux!

I don't feel like I saw any of this behavior you're referring to so I can't feel on board with you running yourself out of town.

Also, what in the jeebus are you doing up for 36 hours straight? You're not gonna think clearly in that state.

I couldn't agree more with what's been said.  I'll keep you in my prayers as you go through this journey, but there's no need, as far as I can see, for you to step away from the community.

Thanks for the kind words everybody.  I'm better now.  Just have a couple evil ghosts that come around periodically, particularly when I don't sleep for a day or so.  They look just like my parents.

 Get some sleep and do what you have to do.

 Just don't wander off too far.
