Plain Layne looks to be taking a break for a while. And I understand, much of Layne's posting lately has been very melancholy and filled with the acrid taste of despair.
I hope she returns sometime though because I have really come to consider her a friend and I enjoy sharing the small part of our lives that comes up on these blogs.

Since they are nothing more than snapshots really, instants or moments collected together and preserved in sepia tinted sadness.

Heal thyself, Layne. We'll be here when you return, if you decide you wish to.
