Re: bval shut down her blog.
This is kind of disappointing and kind of a blessing.
Reading that shiit was making me angry yesterday. She sounds so much like my trainwreck of a former friend ... completely fvcked in the head and self-indulgently, willfully, petulantly so. NOOOOO ONE UNDERSTANDS MEEEEEEEE AND MY SPESHUL SNOWFLAKE PROBLEMS.
Crap I just knew that was going to happen.
I BLAME IMOAN.
HEY! I blame LHC... or Edith. I haven't decided yet.

Meh, link or not, she knew where all the views were coming from.
I'm sure she'll start another one. Maybe someone can sleuth it out.
I only provided the link once. And after LHC brought it to my attention (I hadn't even thought about that), I promptly deleted it. I am NOT taking the fall for this... I REFUSE!

I was going to sugest just one person go to her blog and C&P it here for us just so she wouldn't get the pageviews. lol
Every time I went to it I immediately went to Imoan's, LHC's and other's just to keep it all even steven. What a dork I am.
This cracks me up! And thank you! I was actually pissed each time I realized that her pageviews were a LOT more than mine... even though I was one of the people contributing to it!

Well, I guess I probably shouldn't have any chillens then. OH WELL!

Phsaw! I'm immune to the smize! Maybe if you didn't hor your kid out so much, I would be taken off-guard. YOU RUINED IT!

Trainwrecks bedamned! I will give a blog view or two every day dammit! And Lucy's blog post about running has me wanting to run in this romanticized idea I have in my head of panting and sweat and boobs bouncing. Then I remember I can get the same effect from sex without the shin splints.
This is the smartest thing I have read all day. Indoor sports!!
eta- You do, however, have to be careful of tennis elbow. Right, Bowies?
I need to start making up illnesses. Then my blog will get pageviews. lol.

RIGHT?!

/dead. I laughed like a loon. GG for the win.
Though I started posting on the board after she made her exit, I know who she is and what her deal is.That blog was updated and maintained KNOWING everyone was salivating over it.
No worries, people like that always reappear. She'll come back under another name and start again...
What I want to know is: How the hell did she manage to slip by all of your damn Crazy Radars? There's no way that one day she just appeared "off" - she's been rocked in the head since day - Rats grooming her, all kinds of foolishness.
What was it? Was she super nice? Asskissery? Told funny jokes?
What was the draw?
I love that line. Sometimes when I watch Parenthood, I pretend Sarah is Lorelai.
I'm disappointed about bval's blog and feel a little responsible, even though I deleted the link as soon as LHC told me. I'm a little sad that we'll never know if bval will walk again but I'm more sad that we'll never know what's wrong with Annie, whether she'll press charges when bval eventually stalks and subsequently kidnaps her and, of course, which zoos they'll visit.

We miss you and love you always, little firecrackers!
Since I don't have a blog, someone can claim my sex-induced tennis elbow as their own. Really, it's my gift to youuuuuu.
She slipped by because she kept most of the crazy confined to her blog. I for one rarely click on blog links in siggies. The only one I've read is Interro's (so THERE!).
She mostly posted funny commentary in other people's posts, and occasionally would post an update on her life, but always gave those posts an "I have some challenges but I'm really mitigating them in a positive way" spin. Towards the end, I'd just side-eye her from afar.
I consider BVal a sleeper crazy. She was around here for years before we realized she was like 20 and had been married for five years. Then the hypochondria and the video game addiction and the rats and the crazy came out much later. But for a long, long time, she just made innocuous comments and didn't talk about herself much.
There will be another blog. She'll be back.
Right now, BVal is like Kim Jong Il in Team America.
I SHALL WEETUUUUUURN!!!!
1) I always thought she was an immature brat. we did not get along.
2) I'm sure it was not the page views--or even knowing the views were coming from the nest. I am certain she read all the shiit we said about her and couldn't handle it. obviously things bother her (she talked about a comment I made ONE MONTH ago in her blog post yesterday). she can't deal, so she quit. this isn't something new for her, lololol.
You know, like me.
I dissociated over to her house and it looks like she's starting a new blog, dedicated to video game character outfits she is making to put on annie. im having a hard time with the ptsd I've gotten form losing this blog.
