I do take responsibility for it. Notice how I wrote in my last post

I am aware that I have stated you won't be my favorite

Furthermore, I understand that this may upset you, but you need to understand that not being selected as my favorite is a result of things you have posted or done.

This is not a birth order thing. It may be a stubborn goat thing.

Children, do I have to separate you two?

I wanna see stubborn goats headbutting ita and msbelle apart.

Hey, all I was doing was explaining why I said what made you cry. I never avoided responsibility either. I just reacted as I saw appropriate.

Wait! Why am I still on the internets? Those damned lurkers must be supporting me, or something.

Your flouncing-and-leaving needs some work.

I am wearing my new black Crocs today and they are the only thing keeping me from imploding from the pressure of too much work.

Yay Crocs!

On the topic of crocs, I've noticed subtle differences in the three pairs that I have, which are ostensibly all the same model, but evolving as production ramps up. The Croc guy sticker is no longer a sticker, and the strap says CROCS. Also, made in China vs. Canada.

Girls, girls. Each of you can take responsibility for her own actions, but neither of you is responsible for the other's reaction and feelings.

I never avoided responsibility either.

Everything is my fault. I just skipped to the end, so I have no idea what is ita's responsibility, but it's also my fault.

Robin! I didn't get to post here on your birthday, and something like "Happy fifth-day-or-so-of-your-new-age", even with the exclamation point, just doesn't seem to have the same effect as the more traditional congratulations. So I'm just going to post "Robin!", OK?

sara, we are working through our problems and misunderstanding in a calm and, I think, productive manner. I am sorry if this makes you uncomfortable, but not addressing our problems will only lead to resentment and possibly deeply hurt feelings.

ita, I don't know where this leaves us. I will pray on it tonight.
