Such Sweet Sorrow
My butt’s been dragging lately, folks, and I see the way it is affecting my time here. This pursuit is something that more and more easily gets pushed to the side to make way for other things that are taking up my time, energy, soul, etc. It’s a bummer. And as much as I love to set ginormous goals for myself that can then set me up for failure - woohoo! self-flagellation! - I think it might be better to admit to myself that all things eventually come to an end, even the great things, and that it’s okay to say goodbye.
I’ve talked it over with Ellie, and let her know what I planned. She’s currently in an apartment without internet access - the situation is giving her hives, I’m sure - but she asked me to leave the site up and running so that she can make her imminent return to blogging.
So that’s where things stand, with my Extra-Long-Hiatus-That-Could-Be-More-Like-Retirement-But-Who-Really-Knows? It’s been a privilege meeting and bantering with you all.
Love,
FatGrrl

Will miss your blogs and hope you make it back with more rich thought and opinion. Thinking of you and hope things get resolved soon.
Best wishes. I’ll miss reading you! You inspired me to address my eating disorder and did it in an often funny and always interesting way. Thank you.
I do hope you are able to take an honest shot at living and lose a lot of weight. You will find a man to fulfill you if you can take off the excess.
Doc - are you serious? I can’t decide if this is a lame attempt at spamming, or someone who honestly thinks they are making the best recommendation.
1. I fulfill myself. That’s not anyone else’s job.
2. Being thin DOES NOT EQUAL a “shot at living”. Are you kidding me?
3. You must be new to FatGrrl.com because I’ve been partnered for over two years.
You need to move along. Thanks.
I am definitely thinking about you and sending you a ton of great thoughts and happy wishes. I know how it feels to be in that kind of head space. You and your writing will be greatly missed and I know I am not the only one hoping that this is simply a little hiatus as we do care about you :)
I´m sorry to read this news, but you gotta do what is right for you. Wishing you lots of joy and peace… now I´m thinking that sounds like a Christmas card… I´m so bad at¨goodbyes… Take care and hope you surprise us with an entry somewhere down the line.
LOL. I haven’t been here in a while and I was reminded in second you had a partner. The Doc comment sounds like an automatic message.
You may change your mind after a guilt free break. Take care. ;)
