I know you all are breathlessly waiting – will she subscribe? You’ve searched everyday for my stunningly witty and insightful posts because you didn’t want to miss a single one. You are hoping beyond hope that I will subscribe and continue to enlighten and amuse you.

I’m sorry – I just can’t. I can’t say why; my reasons are too personal, too deep, too too.

I shant be gone. I shall watch you from a distance, passing judgement … er, um watching wistfully.

Jebus, it’s just a message board. Either subscribe or don’t. Shit or get off the pot. Either way the world still goes on.

Thanks to **MsWhatsit** you are now a member.

But don’t think that just because it wasn’t your decision _or_ your dime that you can avoid the welcoming committee.
