I don't know

Chatterbox: Down to Earth

I don't know

I don't know if you know who I am.

I used to be loving the CB and posting almost everyday. It was part of my life.

Then along came this thing called "Theater."

It was amazing. I met so many new friends and learned TONS of acting tips. It felt like I finally had found a place where I felt like I belonged.

And during that time, the CB slowly started slipping out of my mind, into the filing cabinets in the back of my brain.

Finally I came back after my most recent production and realized just how many new people there were, and how many people had left.

I was a nothing. I haden't said goodbye, I kind of just left, like a balloon does after it flies up and away. 

I was never mentioned on any compliment threads.

Nor picturings.

Nor anything.

Nobody remembered me.

I started gradually posting again. And still seemed like nobody knew I was here.

I've been quite depressed these days, not only because of this, but just because of life.

I started thinking, "If I left, would anyone notice?"

No, this is not a goodbye thread. I just wanted to get this off my chest.

Thanks for reading. 

Signed, 

Butterfly

Oh, Butterfly.

Well, I don't know how this will help, but let me tell you one thing.

You were always one of the CBers I admired most. I would look at one of your posts, and smile, and say "oh look, there's Butterfly!" You were always one of my CB role models, it feels like you're always here, always with us, no matter how little you post. I love your personality, your ideas. You're a beautiful person. I really, really care for your presence. I would deffinetly notice if you left. It would hurt, a lot. I don't know how well you know, me, or if, upon reading this you'll think, Who even is this Booksy person? But kow that I really, really appreciate you.

Sending you lots and lots of hugs,

Booksy.

Butterfly, we love you! (In a friend way) I've always admired how you stick up for yourself, and keep coming back to the CB year after year. :)

Actually I did make you a picturing, ya I know.  I've been making a ton of picturings of CBers and they've been sitting in my storage for a while now;)  

So here you are!!! (By the way, the creator didn't have butterfvly wings so I improvised;)

Thank you Windswift! That's so cute! I ♥ it so much!

To be honest, I actually don't really know you that well, but I hope we can get to be friends.

I know you're here. I loved your Halloween costume idea (the Mad Hatter). If you left, I'd be really upset. You're an embodiment of what the CB stands for: art, writing, quirks, colors.

Applejaguar, I never really knew you, but thank you so much for saying those kind words. You made my day! 

(If you have any ideas let me know on that thread!)

I completely and totally remember you. I always like you. We both joined around crowd sorcery Tim, we're both younger siblings of an oldie who doesn't come on much anymore, and... Yeah. *virtual hug* I don't really know what to say, but I don't really forget any CBers. Anyone remember Alias S? Quicksilver? Carolion K? The ChocaBookaHolic? Book Bug? Earthgirl? Mag Fan? BHR? FEP? Melody? Joe the Stickfiddler? Wow, typing that out brings back a lot of memories. Anyways, if you haven't seen me on picturing and stuff that's mostly because I can't really do picturings... I made one, once, and posted it, but it had the web address in the corner and I'm not sure how to take it out so... Yeah. I don't know what else I can say.

Thanks Savvy. You always made my day brighter by being so cheery and fun! (Even though I joined a year or two before Crowd Sorcery.)

*hugs back*

Welllllll......

We do remember you, it's simply that there's many other people on this site to keep track of and such.
