Sometimes I do dumb stuff
Permalink  

Hi Guys

I have had a few days on the sidelines now and have come to the conclusion that my mental state is not what I would hope it to be. Therefore I am back on meds and have had a session with my shrink today. (thank you taxpayers).

I told him about what happened on the weekend and he laughed and said, "why do you let an internet forum have such an effect on you?"

I must admit, it took me while to answer with "I have no idea". His next words were profound and did the trick. "Do you enjoy the forum?" yes, "have you made friends on the forum" yes. Then he looked at me and told me to go away and get back on the horse and dont let anyone knock me off again.

To all those dear folks who posted on my last thread, I have no way of expressing how profound your words are to me and the effect they have had today (yes I did take a peek a few times).

To you all I owe an unreserved apology.blankstare

Be safe in both body and mind.

Well, there ya go, Phil. That makes you unique. I never do dumb stuff. No one else here on the forum ever does dumb stuff. In fact, I don't know of a single person other than you who does dumb stuff.

Hi Phil, you must realise you are a 'snag' (sensitive new-age guy) and nothing wrong with that....  We ladies love guys with 'feelings'... and a soft heart...  Best wishes.... Jay-Jay

Welcome back Phil. One reason not to delete yourself as others have done. Best to take a break for however long it takes, there is still that opening to come back once you are feeling more like it.

Good one.

Try not to subscribe  to posts at all,    even the ones you have contributed too.   Just look the topic up now and then see where they are going.  Add a comment if you need to.

The people who want the last Word on everything !       Well let them have it.  Like taking scalps.   They thrive on having the last word even when wrong.    Leave them to it.

 

Regards and take it Easy

Mike

Good to see you back.

I had to log in to respond to this  ... Having just decided a few minutes ago not to log in for a bit & just lurk.

Now that's dumb!!!

Let me out myself too ...  I have just PM'd Cindy to give her my views of the recent kerfuffle .... Is that dumb too???

Big decision now ...  Do I log out now & lurk?   Perhaps I'll just finish my emails & then watch a replay of the Kangaroos getting out of jail against the Poms last weekend.  That'll put me in a good mood.  No booze for me these days.
