I was trying to come up with a response . . . but Vicki beat me to it.

I had a very similar response to the fic -- and to the resulting kerfuffle. huh Honest reactions are just that, and are, I think, the whole point of feedback?

So while I was not offended, neither do I think that other people don't have the right to be.

Just my $.03 (inflation, you know).

Do you know the most surprising thing about divorce? It doesn't actually kill you, like a bullet to the heart or a head-on car wreck. It should. When someone you've promised to cherish till death do you part says, "I never loved you," it should kill you instantly.
