please… just disappear forever

for some random reason (sheer boredom probably), this morning i visited a message board that i hadn’t been to in at least a year. during the maybe 2 minutes i was on the homepage, the username of someone i thought i was good friends with up until early 2003 showed as currently logged in. this was a person who, after i had finally gotten over the anger and essentially written out of my life for good, IM’d me out of the blue 7-8 months later - with a VB question, of all things. i somehow pulled the right function name out of thin air (it had been 6 months since i had the class), and probably saved them from either hours of work or not completing the assignment. why i did, i’m not quite sure. anyway, that conversation, back in december 2003 or so, ended with something along the lines of “hey, i owe you an apology, let me know when you have some time”. i didn’t expect to get one, and of course it never happened. heck, i was surprised that they even realized what they did in the first place.

so back to this morning. once i saw that name, i remembered why i want nothing to do with that message board from here on out and why i strongly doubt i’ll go back.

ok, so this message has no purpose, really. but if i ever see/hear their name again during my life, it’ll be too soon… i’m not bitter, seriously. i just flat out don’t care…
