Doctors orders, Moderateman needs a break

some badly needed time away from moderateman

It seems that my blogging has had a couple unwanted side effects, One my stress level is sky high, and that adversly affects my liver.

The other is I am starting to think "moderateman" is me. Well that is patently nuts, so I am taking a few days off to lower stress level and let "moderateman" take a time out, for my own sanity.

I will be around commenting but not posting for a bit, be well and have fun here in joeuser land, and try to remember to not take yourselves so damn seriously.


love to all
elie, who is real life is NOT moderateman lol

Oh, we'll miss you, Moderateman--I mean Elie. Get better.

Is it just me or do people always need to take breaks from JU? Is it really that unhealthy?

I would say yes....I took a 3 month break once....I was actually able to center myself....probably the only time I felt relaxed since join JU.

As to Moderateman/Elie, relax, kickback and get yourself centered again...we will all be here when you get back....guess thats why JU really does fell like a family...including the family members no one likes to talk to....its a crazy, messed up place....and I wouldn't have it any other way.

Cheers to you Elie, go out and kick some PETA members for a good way to relieve stress.

Or do what I do:

I didn't know I cause liver damage

Seriously, take a break from your dysfunctional internet family. And try not to think too hard about stuff (or spelling )

Modman.....here's a mantra for you, one that my husband reminds me of occasionally : YOU MUST CHILL!!!!!!!!

Repeat a few times daily, as needed. It really does help.

Yeah, I tried to leave too! Made it a whole week!! lol

For me, I figured that my memory and dizziness problems only affected my replies, not my articles, so I figured, What the Heck!! ;~D

If you're stress and liver are made worse by all our bickering and arguing about who killed who, then by all means, take a break!! None of this should be taken THAT seriously anyway!

Take care and in the immortal words of me, "Be Strange, But Don't Be A Stranger!" ;~D

Yeah, if the Libbies are causing you that much stress, it's time to take a break from the wars. Go enjoy some R&R in Saigon, buddy, or better yet, Tokyo?.
