  Kiss My Grits!

  It seemed like eternity, and the constant bugs definitely didn't help, but today I moved to a new level, Kiss My Grits!, a word used on a TV show called Alice which I never watched. It seems nice to finally get something positive. Just as long as I can do my work it's all fine. Thankfully the episode info was restored.
  
  The guide that is occupying me is The Tribe, which I just recently took over and have already done a huge amount of work on. The guide had 78 episodes missing (merged into one) which was not correct, so I had to re-do most of the episode list, causing my points to go up. The second thing is that ALL episodes had synopsis taken from the show's official site, so I had to take that down too. I also have to add cast and crew to all 260 episodes. This will be a long process, but I'm happy doing it. I acquired the entire show and will be watching it and building the guide as I go along.
  
  My current TV viewing schedule consists of The Young and the Restless, The Tribe and Frasier, and I must admit I'm enjoying every second of each show.
  
  As for all soap fans---the guides will be updated in the coming days. I also decided to continue reviewing Y&R. I guess it's just in me that I need to comment on each episode. The main reason why I couldn't do it was college and now that I'm free again, I guess I have time for it. Every next time when I don't do it, it will probably be because I'm busy.

  A Change of Mind

  Dear friends and fellow editors, I've decided to stick around this place just because I want to. It's been my home for so long and I can't just let it go. I found a new guide that I would really like to work on and it has me so excited and interested that I can't wait to do some work, because the guide really needs it.
  
  As for the soap fans, please bare with me until the end of week when my college tests are gone, and then the guides will be updated. Thanks. (Not that anyone ever complains; sometimes I feel as if though nobody ever reads those guides anyway.)
  
  Also, there is another change coming. I've written reviews for every single episode of The Young and the Restless from January 2008 to March 2009 and I'm officially done with reviewing. It took up too much of my time; I still adore the show and will be watching it and taking care of the guide, but there will be no more reviews.
  
  UPDATE: I just got the editorship of The Tribe, one of the shows I loved to watch years ago. The guide is a HUGE mess, all 260 episodes contain copied synopsis, some episodes aren't split in half hour, cast isn't done correctly... it'll be a long hard work, but I'll enjoy doing it.

  How Can I Keep From Leaving

  Just to give the people that care a little follow-up... I've been very busy lately in my life mostly due to that boring college I'm attending. I've been out of the loop on the soap guides and I apologize for that. I've been thinking a lot (maybe even too much) about leaving this site and it's becoming more clear that I don't have much time left here; not because of the redesign, but just because I no longer care. It gives me big pain to even think about leaving my guides, especially the ones that I had for years and which I worked my a** off on (another weird sentence). It's almost as if losing a part of my life that I'll never be able to get back if I ever leave. The only thing preventing me from leaving is the fact that I fear I might regret this one day. I'll give myself a few more days.
  
  And sorry to everyone about the drama, but it has reached a point where I'm too tired for this.
