Hardly any of my friends ever post in here anymore, so I’ve decided to stop posting (not that I‘ve posted anything for a while), so I can be like everybody else. I’m doing more on facebook, anyway, now that I’ve figured out how it works. I’ll keep checking back from time to time, and if it gets busier, I’ll come back.
