I've written my breakup letter to CP a time or two. It's not you, its' me...we're growing apart and both deserve to be happy. Not out of anger or baby fit, but honestly, It's part of our contractual obligation to the community. I've been close to hitting submit and delete a couple of times.
As recently as yesterday, I wondered why I still come here....and my answer might have been that its just a bad habit I've had for 16 years. Some days CP is like 3 cans of Mt Dew and an office job...its just part of your routine.
Then....There's the other part. I've been here 16 years. Can't believe I'm typing that...I've been with CP longer than I've known my wife. CP has been with me through 3 towns, 3 home remodels, a handful of girlfriends, death of friends and birth of children. It's basically a friend from HS that annoys you sometimes, but is always available when you need a beer and a talk. He knows your history, he's bled with you, laughed with you.
I've met a number of CP folks over the years and consider a handful real life friends. I've done business with Planet members, I've collaborated with others, a planet member designed the logo for my company when I was starting it....and yesterday, when I was wondering why I'm still wasting time here....Rico gave me some great information and helped me scout opponents for some of our local athletes for state. There is someone here who legitimately knows about any question you can ask.
Those are the things that make me take time off and then come back.
The Chiefs are a bad girlfriend who cheat on all of us, make us feel bad, make us feel good.....and this is the support group for all of us sorry sonnabitches who can't cut her loose....because she's going to treat us right this time...she promised at the draft.
