Friends,
Although justyourlaugh has not been blocked, she has decided not to post for now. We have been communicating with each other via email and I would like to pass along her words to you, as interpreted by my wee brain. JYL did want to comment on her posts here last night:It's a condition called PWD - posting while drinking. Though not a chronic condition, it can be problematic and cause misunderstandings, regret, and inadvertently, pain. I have shown traits of this condition many times here at Babble. JYL had chosen another acronymn to describe it, PWF, which I'm sure everyone will get the drift of...
Unfortunately we all know that you can't unring a bell, unpickle a cucumber, or withdraw our posts. What we say is out there, and destined to become archived (unless we broke Dr Bob's rules and he decides to unring the bell for us). I'm posting this message as a followup to the activities here yesterday.
She and I have a strong and caring friendship, born of these boards and of a sincere nature. I have been lucky enough to be able to meet my dear friend face to face this past summer. We were both nervous and uncertain of ourselves, having divulged so my of our souls to each other via emails, babblemails and posts!! I can tell you that she's a beautiful, talented woman, with a lovely family. I'm posting this message from her as a favour from one friend for another; not to make any excuses but to serve as an explanation.
Thanks for reading,
ClearSkies for justyourlaugh

That brings a whole new light to what was going on.
I kind of wondered if it was something like that.
I hope JYL still feels welcomed here (and took some tylenol this morning). LOL

> Friends,

You are a good friend. I wish you and jyl well.

I did check to see if JYL was blocked before I posted this, so I hope I haven't done anything wrong.

Its really hard not to post when you're drunk. All of a sudden you just want to talk and talk and talk. Let JYL know I'm glad I'm not the only one.

> Although justyourlaugh has not been blocked, she has decided not to post for now... JYL did want to comment on her posts here last night:
Sorry, but if she wanted to comment then why didn't SHE comment?
> It's a condition called PWD - posting while drinking.Which explains but doesn't excuse.
> Unfortunately we all know that you can't unring a bell, unpickle a cucumber, or withdraw our posts. What we say is out there, and destined to become archived (unless we broke Dr Bob's rules and he decides to unring the bell for us).
Absolutely. And likewise apologies are similarly archived.
What really concerns me is this bit:
> i am posting a few words because i was asked to try and stop your poison..
Now maybe thats just drunk talk but I do hope that someone else hasn't been having a few words in her ear...
I appreciate what you are trying to do...
But each of us has to be responsible for our own behaviour.
If Jyl was really sorry...
She had time to get an apology out there...
To put right what went wrong...And nothing you can say can do that for her.
I guess...
We will just have to wait and see whether there will be a repeat performance yet again (sigh)

I think we've all done things we regret at one time or another.
She is being punished (blocked).
We're not here to judge one another.
