An Important Announcement
Xanga has been good to me. I’ve made friends and allies. I’ve read extraordinary writers. I’ve had fun. I’ve been featured several times and I’ve learned a lot about life and about writing. And so this is not easy for me to do. It’s really hard. But the time has come.
It is with great regret and a heavy heart that I have come to you today to announce that I am NOT leaving Xanga.
I know, I know. It’s sad isn’t it? I won’t be leaving. I won’t be stopping my posts. And I won’t be taking a break. Not for one month or six. Although there are many things in my life, complexities and problems that haunt me, and I am full of constant worry and fear and self doubt, I fully intend to deal with it all and STAY on Xanga. I fully intend to continue to plague you all with my endless meandering posts. I fully intend to keep posting whenever the urge hits me whatever I feel like.
And I won’t stop commenting too. I won’t stop visiting your sites, reading sometimes, skimming other times, and leaving long multipage comments of rants in opposition to whatever it is that you happen to be saying.
I also won’t be changing my style. I won’t be changing my name. I won’t be starting over and I won’t be deleting any of my posts. I’m always gonna be here. Right here. Just the way I am.
That’s right. You aren’t getting rid of me. I know it sucks. It’s tough. I know you’ll all miss me not not being here. And I’ll miss not seeing you too. It’s a sad and dark day. I feel like I’m about to cry. Well not really but that sounds good doesn’t it?You’re stuck with me for now and forever. I will never quit Xanga and if ever there comes a time where months pass without you hearing from me I want you to know now that it is my deepest desire to have my Xanga readership form up and become an army of Xanga Ninjas who hunt me down and break whatever curse or force is keeping me from writing, or at least avenge my untimely death.
I just felt that I needed to let you all know that now before it’s too late.
I’ll be here. Writing. Always.

lol…glad to see someone not leaving or writing about not leaving.
Never fear-if there ever comes a time when we don’t hear from we’ll form a hunting party and hunt you down.
It’s handy, then, that I’m always prepared to join an army of ninjas to avenge someone’s untimely death. I wish I could tell you it was personal, but ninjas are just badass.
Glad to see someone isn’t leaving. I’ll be around too, as long as there’s a Xanga to be around at.
Damn refreshing.
In the unsaid, you’ve offered the best response to the flakers and the dramatists. In your steadiness, you highlight the sort of xangans we’ve all taken for granted– the hearts and souls of xanga-dom.
Rec. =)
I am down with that.
OH NOES!!! DON’T NOT LEAVE!!!
…wait.
I’ll be honing my ninja skills.
You’re not leaving?
(sigh)
Oh well, we’ll just have to continue with you.
My heart is breaking. hXc.
Yay! me too.
Excellent!
HAHAHAHAHA
I saw the title and feared for the worst… another one leaving oh no! Don’t scare me like that. It’s basketball season and I’m on edge as it is.
Wow.
What the…
Kellen! This is so amazing. No I’m serious. I’m totally submitting this for featurement man.
Very unique, very wonderful.
Hey, we haven’t talked since FOREVER. And I wish I’m just exaggerating. Come on man, talk to me on AIM! I always send you messages and you never returned any of them.
You’re not leaving? Does this mean I can’t have your traffic?
Darn it.
do you know someone name Allan?
@purplepixiepoo - thanks for the compliment and for submitting it!
Sorry for the late reply. Usually you IM me when I am working and can’t talk and I’ve been ridiculously busy lately. I’m at work right now and can’t talk much now either. Anyways I’ll be available on aim some this weekend hopefully we can catch each other for a bit.
@ClockworkBunny - there’s really not that much for you to take any more, but no you can’t have it!
@duckling8912 - no. Who is Allan?
