Funny Farm Note Of Thanks

[Editors' Note: We're dropping out of the third person for this post]

I'd just like to take a little time and say thanks to those who have been there for me over the last month and a half - one of the most difficult times I have had to deal with that I can remember. You have helped make the void a little less lonely, and helped me find the strength to try and deal with the horrible injustice served upon me by those who were (at the time) near and dear to my heart. In my folly and my hopes, I had neglected many of you - and yet you were there when I called. I am also proud to have found good friends here on the Fashionable Left Bank Of Blogistan. Your words of wisdom and kind thoughts have been an unexpected treasure that kept me going through some of the darker days. I would especially like to single out Not So Mediocre Fred for pointing out that it isn't as bad as it seems - that this, too, will pass.

I wish I could find a way to express how much your kindness and consideration has helped me make it through the difficult days. But words fail me. Maybe these lyrics from the Moody Blues will come a little closer than my meager scribblings:

Lovely To See You

Wonderful day for passing my way.
Knock on my door, even the score
With your eyes.

Lovely to see you again my friend.
Walk along with me to the next bend.

Dark cloud of fear is blowing away
Now that you're here, you're going to stay,
'cause it's

Lovely to see you again my friend.
Walk along with me to the next bend.

Tell us what you've seen in faraway forgotten lands
Where empires have turned back to sand.

Wonderful day for passing my way.
Knock on my door, even the score
With your eyes.

Lovely to see you again my friend.
Walk along with me to the next bend.

Now, if you'll excuse me, it's time to scream at the walls once again...
