35. I'm trying to taper off

Sun Jun 5, 2016, 10:46 AM

Jun 2016

For a couple reasons.

First, real life has intervened and I don't have as much time to post, browse or surf.

Second, I find myself wanting to post things just to piss people off.

I think its time for me to take a break. I'm a member over at JPR but my browser doesn't like the site so I don't spend much time there. I hear that they have come out with 2.0 so hopefully things will improve.

I'll keep an eye on events and if the temptation to gloat becomes irresistable I'll just go outside and play with the dogs.

And I need to find out what is the minimum I can pay here to avoid seeing them stupid ads.

Your post is right on. I'm working on my own coping strategy.
