A lot of you may have noticed my decreased presence here at TV.com. While I'm not ready to give up my editorships, I have not been spending as much time here. 1) work's been crazy.
2)My health has been steadily decreasing, and frankly I don't have the energy to fight the system to submit certain things. I've been hospitalized 6 times since September, had 13 blood transfusions, and have undergone numerous tests. Sometimes I just want to watch TV, not analyze it.
3)A lot of the users that I enjoyed the most on this site have also decreased the amount of time here.
4)The Sports forum, where I spent a lot of my time, has been on lockdown lately. Our Yahoo fantasy league was shut down. What a dissappointment by TPTB. This was all inclusive and a lot of fun. Suddenly, we can't play anymore. *sigh*
I'm still checking my queue, but I've fallen behind on some of the regular information I used to submit. Hopefully, I'll get a second wind. Otherwise, I may retire. If retirment wasn't permanant, if I could take a medical break, I might consider it. But I have put a lot of hard work into all of my guides, and I'm not quite ready to let go yet. Still, I'm heading that way. My guess is that if I do retire, someone else will pick up my slack--that's the way of the world.

Hey Brandi: Allow me to add a "me too" to your thoughts today. I too, spend less time here and miss the more frequent contact with you and my other friends that the old, more user friendly, site used to offer. I am sorry to hear about your health problems and I hope you make it through all right. Take Care of yourself. I will be thinking of you.

Amazingly writing the blog has helped revamp my spirits a little. I'm just way behind on subbing to my still airing guides, no one else wants too, so if I don't so it the info doesn't get added...

I hope you stay around and that your health improves. I know what you mean about the situation on the site though. It really is getting out of hand. It looks like I'm being shown the door too, so I don't really know how much longer I'll be around. I've always tried to do a good job on my guides and not take on more than I can handle. I thought we were supposed to focus on quality info and building a community, but I guess there are other "considerations".
