I just finished reading
Rats saw GOD.
Trying to figure out why YA books ( and shows like BTVS) have such an emotional cathartic effct. I think it is because the emotions are so pure. When it is done poorly, it feels really ugly. But when it is done well such as the one I just read or
Speak
and
ZigZag
I feel refreshed after I read them.
ION there was a strange kitty outside. Close to the 15-17 pounds of my cat. Percy was clawing at the back windows - so I turn on the light and saw the other cat. I just went back to what was going on - some how my cat has smuged and left claw marks on the slider. The other cat is gone.

Gus, I don't know how to address loneliness. Although the Buffistas often make me feel a little less alone.
Is there a specific event that triggered this?
Gus, I can't tell if you're mad at the world, or mad at the board. I hope you're okay.

On a totally different track, or maybe not... The Po River is wasted, dude.
ROME (Reuters) - The mighty Po river is not only Italy's longest. It also may be the highest, at least judging by the amount of cocaine coursing through its waters.
Italian scientists, trying to develop a new way of measuring levels of drug abuse, tested the river's waters for excreted cocaine, and for its main urinary metabolic by-product benzoylecgonine.
They say that the equivalent of about $400,000 worth of cocaine was flowing through the 652 km-long (405 mile) river every day.

Gus, I asked you what was up, and then I went to bed. Sorry -- I didn't ditch you; it was just after midnight and I had to get some sleep.
In any case, I get the lonely, man. I sure do get it. And it sucks. But, for me, having invisible friends on the other side of the computer screen (you all ARE in there, right? RIGHT???) helps a LOT. I hope it's some help for you.
Gus, sorry that you’re feeling down. I get that way too sometimes. I’ve got great friends and a great life, but sometimes, I just want someone to cuddle with. All I can offer is a virtual squishie and a rain check for the next F2F.
Yeah. In the 80s there was a ridiculous cop TV series called Automan,
HMOG, I LOVED Automan. Deliciously bad classic 80s! And he could only be around at night because he took so much power to run that “they” would have noticed the drain during the day. Wasn’t his human partner some sort of police flunky? Like a computer guy or something?
