I'm taking an extended break from Coffee Rhetoric. My mind is preoccupied and time is usurped.

Please enjoy (or not) the archives. I'm very appreciative of the feedback I've gotten on here; The emails, comments, and overall time some of you have donated to reading this craziness. I've been at this since 2004, so this long intermission was inevitable. This has been an enjoyable experience, with a few bumps along the way. I put a lot of time ( personal information and pictures) into this blog and can't bear to dismantle it completely... not yet.

I will be back! Hopefully I'll have some worthwhile and even crazier things to share with the reading public. I've also enjoyed reading some of your blogs as well and will continue to do so.

Those of you who know me, well, you know how to find me, in the meantime. Stay good and until next time...

I hope that your sign-off is not connected to the blog class, although to assume that would be narcissistic of us. I'm glad you are choosing to leave your archives. Your blog clearly chosen for study because it was successful and had an intriquing voice.

I just wanted to drop my two cents here, even though you don't know me. I'm from the blogging class and your blog is one of the few I would continue reading after the class ends. Here's hoping you blog more in the future.

Well, it's a damn shame, but completely understandable. I hope you find whatever it is you need - actually I don't hope that, because from the short amount of time I've known you I know you WILL - you're a goddess, my friend, you can do ANYTHING.

I hope you do decide to blog some more in the future - I can honestly say I'd miss it if you don't. :(

Stay strong! :)

I'm gonna miss you too. While you are not blogging, you'd better enjoy yourself. I have enjoyed reading your posts.

Coffey, hope all is well with you. I have taken a VERY long break from all of the blogs. My life was too filled with drama and loss to continue to be a part of things and I lost a lot of trust in a lot of people. Those things that I thought (and hoped) were real, were just illusions and, once again, I felt duped because of my trusting nature. I thought of you tonight and decided to check out your blog. I hope all is well with you and we can all get past the sick feelings in the pits of our stomachs - feelings that our vulnerability and the sharing of our personal lives have been toyed with and used to our detriment by others with no motives that go beyond their selfish, sometimes evil, desires. Peace to you and success in ALL that you do!

Thank you all very much for the comments, encouragement, and just general feedback.
I like the good, and have gotten used to accepting the bad.
I appreciate the fact that many of you even read this blog.

I'm speechless. Just thanks. :-)
