Friendship, with benefits - and a farewell

This is the title of a "final" post which I've taken down due to a specific request from someone very important to me.

Suffice it to say that there may be some more closure to this blog, and I may even return some day. But for now, it's not been getting my attention, and so I'm on to other things. Thanks for reading, commenting, and sharing this part of my life.
