Well now that the title is officially in the hands of Chris Stevens, I can let out a sigh of relief and reflect a bit.

NO ONE WARNED ME HOW HARD IT WOULD BE HOLDING THE WR TITLE.

Joe handed me the orange jacket, but for some reason he forgot to tell me what was coming.

Like I told Chris, I'm not sure if it was because I was a "young girl" or what, but the bullies seemed to attack me way more than I would imagine they would have Jutras, Wallace, Checkon, etc, and I pray they don't go after Chris Stevens next. Those bullies wanted what they wanted, they wouldn't take no for an answer, and they felt like they could attack my character even if they had never met me.

Makes me wonder if having the title was even worth it. I've spent many sleepless hours wondering what I did to make people so mad.

Just today I got this message:
-----
"I must say, that you are one of the rudest Gemini's to ever walk the Earth... You blame other people for your lack of grace and turn it around. That is wrong!!! You simply got lucky growing that pumpkin and it will be wonderful when the record is broken by a person who earned it!!!
I just saw that you are OUT!!! Thank GoD!!!!!!
You never deserved the record!!!"
----

Yes, I know there are jerks in the world and I need to ignore them, but it is hard. I've never done anything to intentionally hurt anyone, so I'm not sure why I deserve this. So to everyone going after the title in the future, be careful what you wish for, because honestly, it came with way more headaches and tears than I think it was worth.

And to Chris, congrats, but good luck dealing with the crap that comes with the title.
