The End



From now on, you'll have to get your daily dose of Janna over at , my shiny new blog. I mean no offense to Blogger, but what you can do here is somewhat limited, and I want more creative control. I've been thinking about moving on for some time, and recent circumstances have sped up the process.

What circumstances, you ask? After seven mostly good years together, Sanjay and I have decided to amicably separate. Unfortunately, what falls outside "mostly good" has caught up with us, and we have made the difficult but mutual decision that we will be happier apart.

FAQs:
  • We are both OK.
  • We still have an excellent friendship.
  • Sanjay got the car, but I got the cats. Clearly, I still have the upper hand in this relationship.
  • We have a spreadsheet entitled "Possessions", but don't have a corresponding one called "Friends". There are no sides to be taken.
  • We are both staying in the Bay Area.
As far as a flamboyant ending to a nice blogrun on Google's dime, I've got nothing. suggested that we end with a poll: "Who do you like better, Janna or Sanjay?". She was kidding, of course. We all know that a little gallows humor can take the edge off a sucky reality. Unfortunately, I didn't come up with a comparably good yet also appropriate farewell.

So, we're stuck with the basics:

Ok, so I'm really disappointed my poll idea didn't see fruition, but at least it got an honorable mention. But, it's probably a good thing you didn't take my advice -- I really wouldn't be able to decide. Together or separate, you each remain among my favorite people in the world :)

Janna, the new blog is BEAUTIFUL. Mine is green (polka-dotted) w/ envy!

wow, i don't know what to say as it is, i'm glad there is no poll! but all my super-best to both of you!! and you know if they're strong enough to make it across all that distance, they're really really good.

so... i guess sanjay also gets this blog? :P

ps: janna, i also want to make the move to wordpress. i use it for another blog i contribute to, and it's so much awesomer. and i concur with brooke, your new one is lovely! already linked to it.

pps: you should do a spreadsheet of friends' good wishes - with columns for goodness of wish, distance it's being sent from, etc.. haha

Now I'm depressed.

Why can't everybody be happy all the time??

Wow. I wish you both the maximum amount of OK-ness availble.

I'll be sure to link to and check on the new blog on occasion. Glad to see you're still blogging (Sanjay will also have an online presence somewhere,I'm guessing?), as I'd hate to lose touch with either of y'all.

All best wishes.
