Hey Sabina- sorry, i can't remember...you have FM right? Sorry if I screwed that up. I've heard that it can be just awful...I dont know much about it.

>lots of work (the money making kind, not only laundry, etc.) done at night,

Kick butt! i wish I could say the same! Look what I'm doing at 5:00 am. And at this point, really, why bother going back to bed when I have to be up at 7. I'm nervous about a neurosurgeon appt I have this am. Although I'm absolutely intrigued with all things brain, and i love to read CT scans, it's not quite the same when it's you! Kinda like the fascination of reality tv...interesting to hear about maybe, but...

>"lazy" for sleeping while *everyone* else is at work.

Ok now, there'll be none of that talk! You have made a huge accomplishment...I know it's hard not to deflate yourself.

>i can't help but feel kinda crappy, even if i was awake nearly until his alarm went off.

You've done well! Circadian rhythms be damned!

>*cheating* sounds so awful;
Oh pulease. not in this case. Wow, I had no idea they had such info out there! But I think that if KIDS are playing, they should have to use their little maleable brains more and figure it out themselves. There are just too many buttons to push on the controls for me...I get all panicky! When a 6-year-old says, "Look Aunt Karen...it's easy! Press this one to select the game, this one to go forward, that arrow to jump, this one to squat" I get the heebie jeebies. And damn I feel old.

> but getting splattered over and over again was too depressing.

Oh splattering is fine as long as it's not 'real life'!!

>palpitations, holding my breath, etc.

No need for aerobics! Yay!

>i need any meds advice,
Same here re: the meds.

>would come roaring back, swinging invective wildly at dr. bob

Yeah, cyber invectives! I know what you mean. Amazing the freedom people seem to think they have on the internet. I don't know how Dr. B does it sometimes. Bully for him, i say! But I don't think he should have to. I know he probably feels as if he needs to maintain order, but if this were 3D life, we'd have to just figure it out for ourselves, If one doesn't like the site and can't help but hurt other peoples' feelings, make an exit.

>i found the entire affair to be like unto an episode of the twilight zone.

Yuppers. I find it to be a fascinating social-anthropological study. i figured I needed to start to view it that way. I'll tell my sister about so-and-so still not doing well and so-and- so laying everyone including Dr. Bob out in lavender.

>i try to make them feel better or just ignore it?
Oh that's funny...not funny 'haha' though. i do the same thing. It's a nurturing thing, methinks. Maybe I need a baby. I'm TOO sympathetic sometimes. My mom tells the story of when my dad's sailboat was sinking while dad was away on business. She was so upset. I was 2 and 1/2. I patted her on her back and said, "Don't cwy mommy. It's ok..."!

>emotional well being.
Wise words.
>
> i wish we were all able to just "play pretty" with each other.
Yeah sometimes i wonder if there should be an admin board at all. We have a choice whether we care to use this site. And Dr. Bob has created it. Well, if you ain't happy with it, then...

>i wish you well, too.
Back atcha. I'm called "bean" in my family so the way you signed your name gave me a little smile!

Hang in there. You have much to be proud of even if it's hard for you to see now.

Karen
