I talked with Bob privately quite a bit both last night and tonight. I was mostly teasing him by asking if he was listening, and clueing him in because I hadn't gotten to the private post to him yet.

I talked with a fellow southerner who understood my post perfectly. I will stay with that and not worry about, nor address, what others think of it. I know what I meant. That's all I need to know.

And I think Bob and I understand each other better than before. Not that he needs to understand me. I'm one itty person in a huge scape. He is an important part of the scape to us, however.

I will not ever again wait to address what I consider to be a threat against someone. I will not ever again turn my eyes for fear of "tattling" when I think someone is over the edge, or is not a safe person. I've had friends die at the hands of such people. It is not "adult" to turn our eyes. It is ignorant. And I was ignorant. And I went along when I knew something was out of hand. I was wrong. And my post addressed that. In my own way. From my own world. Which is not yours. I have been suspended and reinstated and talked with the disignated people about it.
