Keep forgetting...

...to check here, in case anyone is bothering to bitch at me. Justin says I've either scared or bored everyone away. Pffft.

Personally (like you care) I think you're doing the right thing. I understand why Justin feels left out, but it weighs more heavily on you. You have to go to your cave and grunt for a while. I hope the sacrifices make a difference for Kinnetic. m

"Grunt?" What the fuck are you talking about? Such inelegant terminology for the act of consideration and reflection. I believe I have been insulted.

It sucks for everyone right now. You did what you had to and I'm sure there has to be some relief (soon) that it's done.

I hope Justin adjusts as quickly as possible.

[brian_pa]

Saying no to Justin has never been easy. I'm not sure why.

No point beating yourself up. I think you have taken a reasonable and rational approach to the problem. I am sure that Justin will understand when he thinks about it. I think you might want to keep the Toronto Gallery. Our economy is down a bit but we are not taking the hit that you are. In fact Canada is supposed to come out of the downturn in the best shape of all the G-8 countries.

Actually, Ted pointed out that Canada is not in as bad shape as the U.S. so that is a consideration in re: the Toronto gallery.

Damn, I am so sorry, Brian. That situation really sucks. I'm anticipating a reduction in my contract work, which I can't at all afford right now. Who can?

I know you feel worst about having to ask Justin to sacrifice something. Guess this is what they mean by "worse" of the "better or worse".

[brian_pa]

It's worse because Justin worked his ass off to fix up the Toronto apartment, and he did a more than adequate job of it, too.

Empathy is appreciated. However, be aware your "clever" play on words could get you into trouble.

Missed you guys. I have no idea what is going on just popped in to say hi.

*miss one, ONE, day on LJ and I am in the dark* sheesh

[brian_pa]

I read an e-mail signature quote the other day which came to mind reading your post.

"I still miss my husband....but my aim is getting better."

And don't fucking go and make anything of use of the "husband" word here.

*twists lock on lips and throws away the key*

Ok I lied. I can not believe that you used the word husband and did not studder!
