Sweet sadness
There comes a point in every girl's life when she has to choose between what she knows and how she feels, between what is safe and comforting versus new and daring.
That moment has arrived for me and to my amazement, I fear I have succumbed far, far too easily. Those of you who know me well also know me to be dependable, slightly boring and utterly unspontaneous.
That has changed. I have, at long last, given in to following where my senses lead regardless of established tradition, leaving behind the undiscerning innocence of my youth. When we first met, I was inexperienced, easily impressed. Alas, after all these years, I have grown beyond you; you limit me and I chafe at the confines. Yes, I know you both are very similar but you don't make my heart aflutter like my newfound love. Your nutty charms, that which I once found so endearing, have made you a liability to me - I fear that in this case, size does matter; I'm truly sorry. After all the good times we've had, if you could only change...but we both know you won't.
Farewell, dear one. Take solace that you have trained me well, that my new love is worthy.

New blog?
I have been repeatedly asked by several of my support group members to blog about my experiences with my Condition. I am generally a very private person but I've Survived long enough that my tale is apparently worth telling.
The new blog is going to be completely separate from this one; in fact, this is the only reference here that I will ever make about itt. It's geared towards bringing hope to others with my Condition, to show them that yes, it's survivable and that they're not alone. As with this blog, all entries there will be at most a "PG" rating: it's only not a "G" because of the medical complexities involved.
My Condition has been touched on here every now and then. That is as far as it will go here. If you, dear friends, are interested in knowing what happened in the past two years, please drop me a note so I can gauge if it's worth opening that part of my life up. So far, I do not consider that quorum has been reached and the current state is a No-Go.
