It's Time!

Hey there, Travis here. I wanted to make a quick post to announce that the time has finally come to make the jump to a private blog. This has been a long time coming as we have toyed with the idea for months, but it finally took a mean-spirited comment that was left for us to ignite the fire of CHANGE (say that word with a crazy emotional voting season voice for greater effect). When my wife, who by the way hardly has a prideful or malicious bone in her body, showed me what was written, I was reminded that there are a lot of lunatics out there who love nothing more than to spew ignorance on-line. I have heard that there are only so many friends who can be invited, so if you would like to continue to visit us here, please send us your email.

To "me" (kind of a narcicistic name, if you ask "me"), next time you feel inclined to chip in, instead of making a cowardly anonymous hate speech message, I encourage you to simply drop by so we can talk about your insecurities at length. Hopefully, however, this will be the last post you see on our blog, so the issue will rest here.

As much as I hate to see a blog go private. (because I'm lazy) I totally understand this one. Its too bad one idiot can ruin it for everyone else.
I'd like to keep following your blog if you'll have me.

me said...

I have to apologize. I am feeling very bad about what was said. I took offense to the whole wt thing, and I shouldn't have. It was my choice to get offended, and I shouldn't have turned around and said what I said.

I am very sorry, and I hope that you can forgive me.

:O(

Lechelle said...

Add kellyghendricks@gmail.com.

Hey "Me", that was really cool of you to apologize.

uvtcharl.blogspot.com said...

To me,

I accept your apology. I'm sorry if I hurt your feelings. I know that you probably just don't know me or my sense of humor. I reread what I wrote, and it could have come off really rude if you took it that way. I wasn't even talking about the people you probably thought I was talking about.
Anyways, I hope you the best! This is kind of weird!

Love, MILLI
