I don't think I have issues that need airing on such a community, but I'm more than happy to join one and help out whatever way I can. Having trouble thinking of a snappy name like ChickChat, though.

Re: the rest of the post... I'm glad there's at least been some progress. It sounds like you've both been dealing with a million things at once, and perhaps not in the best possible way. Personally, I think there are huge tracts of middle ground in there, as long as you can figure out a meeting spot.

'Course, these things never come with a map.
