In reply to: kim 's message, "Re: Maybe I shouldn't be offended, but I am..." on 09:45:56 07/03/01 Tue

Kim, I am sorry because I was not saying that you said all that stuff. I read that you didn't want to take the opportunity to rush sai and basically all I was saying to you was the part about "Just because you don't want to doesn't mean others don't." I was giving you the benefit of the doubt because I didn't think you meant it the way it sounded to me, but I am ultra-sensitive.

At that point, I meant to clarify that I was addressing everyone and I didn't say that clearly. I wasn't saying that you said all this bad stuff, I wasn't saying that anyone said or did anything; I was saying that I hope that everyone can respect the other organization, as we have spent several years trying to improve relations. Kim, I am sorry that you interpreted that as an attack on you, it wasn't meant to be an attack on anyone, so I apologize to anyone who took that personally. I just meant it as a reminder... "How would I feel if people were talking about TBS or my sisters like this?"

I guess we should thank internet tone-of-voice and that there is none! If we had this conversation face to face, probably none of us would be upset or offended right now because I swear on all that is good in TBS and SAI that I meant no personal offense to anyone. (Unfortuntely, I am 2 hours away and a face-to-face conversation is pretty much impossible right now.)

Kim, I plan to be at the meeting next week and I hope, if this message doesn't clarify things, that you will at least give me a chance to talk to you personally to explain that I didn't mean any offense. And to anyone else who took offense, please talk to me because I swear I meant none! =)

I swear I didn't mean to cause a huge thing about this. I am sorry that you took offense to my suggestions. I wasn't trying to correct you or anything, I honestly was just suggesting that since there is less time available to use, maybe you should cut back on activities, or maybe combine them or something. Why should I care, I'm not even going to be there this year? Well, I care because I am a member of that chapter and believe it or not, I do care what happens. I have great confidence that you gals will figure everything out and make it work so that everyone will be happy.

Laurel
