> Dinah, I'm sorry you're sad you started the thread. You get to have an opinion, and I agree with you that Bob can be quite funny. But for Lou to express himself, to have an opinion too, and have that make you sad... I don't know, but it seems to be an over-reaction (?), and somewhat unfair. Or is it that the thread is now belaboring a fine point of discussion that you didn't want it to?
>I have admitted that I am overreacting. I'm not feeling at all well right now, quite unstable really, and I really think I shouldn't be posting. It's hard to stop sometimes, tho. But was it necessary to point it out again, after I've already admitted it? And I don't think it was unfair. I explained to Lou the problem, and I think he understood, and I thanked him for understanding. I appreciate his kindness in helping me out of a mess I got into.
I know I'm unstable when under stress. And I've tried to keep my posts uncontroversial because I'm under stress right now. And I misjudged. I know your intent wasn't to shame me, and I know I'm overreacting to feel shame at what you said.
And now I hope I'll have the self discipline enough to quit reading the board until I feel better.
