Did I say she hadn't been?
Oh Gabbi, I said that Emmy had the right to think it was funny, and that I understood that she thought it was funny.
I know how much PsychCentral and Dr. Grohol mean to her, just like she knows how much Babble and Dr. Bob mean to me. I imagine it was especially rough for Emmy because she brought over what she considered a light hearted post here to Babble and it turned into something she didn't intend.
I always hate it when something like that happens with my posts.
I hate it when my friends aren't in charity with each other. Especially friends who seem to enjoy bantering as much as Lar and Emmy do. But I've found that all I can do is give them both a hug and say that I know they're feeling rotten, and I'm sorry. They'll work it out in their own time and their own way.
What I'd like to do is to tell Lar to tell Emmy that he's not upset with her, just Dr. Grohol for deleting his post and dismissing his concerns without validating them. And to tell Emmy that Lar can be angry with Dr. Grohol and have it have nothing to do with her. And then have them start a feelings dialogues, with lots of "When you.... I felt...." and it all end happily ever after with a big group hug.
But that never works, gosh darn it. At least not when I do it.
And then I'd want to give my dear Gabbi a hug too. And get one back.
