i guess i as (over)reacting to the phrase itself. it's beginning to sound flippant and trite. perhaps you didn't mean it to. but, that's how it's beginning to sound. like...oh well...it was nice while it lasted....let's just ignore it and move on to more fun stuff.

again, that may not be what you were implying.

but, too many people ARE saying that exact same phrase with such a defeatist attitude...such despair....such resignation. hell...even *I* have done that at times!!! and i'm ashamed of myself for that.
