And then I went and did the same thing myself.
Now, I get why it happens.
It's not that I meant to stop blogging at RTK. It's just that other things took over and I found it harder and harder to find things to post about -- especially given the recent lack of softwood lumber and Rebecca Eckler problems.
And to tell you the truth, although RTK had a devoted core of readers, we just weren't growing, which I attribute to the fact that we were sort of all over the place and not really serving any one niche. Say what you will about Mummy bloggers, they know their core audience and cater to it.
Much as I have indeed been by the recent Crocs scandal and tempted by the new Eckler book, even those two monumental events didn't send me racing to the keyboard.
And yet I still don't want to lay RTK to rest, because I keep thinking that at some point I may want to revive it.
So if anyone's still left, any ideas for a "Farewell For Now"

Final post? That's our only option?
Talk about a Freudian slip!
..."not really serving any one niche."
Which is what's so great about RTK...Wonder products, movies, personal angst...it's a chatty, funny, opinionated blog.
If you're really done, I'm going to miss you. But,oh, how I wish you'd give into the temptation to write about the recent Crocs scandal AND the new Eckler book...
Can someone get me a copy of the new Eckler book?
And did you hear that Eckler actually got a settlement from Judd Apatow? Hopefully for $14.99. That enrages me.
I want Jacy. It's not fair that we not know how it all turned out.
5I am here, anon! How it all turned out? It's still on ongoing process! I am doing OK, better than I was, very slooowwwwllly recovering from this awful heartache, and I will be in touch!
Jacy - If RTK is done, can you start your own blog. You have many fans who love your writing.
Anonymous, leave me an e-mail address and I will keep you posted.
why don't you go on hiatus for the spring/summer and see how you feel about all this in the fall? i too like the wide variety of topics discussed; personally i'll miss the wonder products and the jacy storyline (who i think can carry her own blog...don't you?)
