Skipped a zillion messages. ~ma to all who need it.

I'm getting to the point where I really just hate working on my dissertation. I'm finding a million ways to distract myself, and I'm getting stressed out, and I just can't take it any more. And I don't know what to do about that.

Meara, I'm on Citalopram, and it has made a WORLD of difference for me. I haven't noticed any side effects in the slightly-over-a-year I've been taking it.

And, you have vampire moths in your part of the world.

...the fuck?

runs, does not walk, to Google.

stumbles back, slack-jawed.

billy, this is not information I needed. Vampire moths in someone else's part of the world - fine. Charmingly gothic, even. (Particularly the ones that have evolved to drink tears.) Vampire moths on one's own doorstep (or indeed pillow), however...yeah. Thanks for that. I may never sleep again.

Teppy - hot picture! Can't wait to see the actual billboard!

(I am a trifle pouty about not getting into the first ten posts - I sat here for a good fifteen minutes before bedtime, hitting refresh, poised to post something as soon as the thread arrived, before admitting that I was really knackered and hitting the hay. Sigh. Never in the top ten. Still, at least it was a Brit that planted his flag in the fresh soil of the new thread and claimed it for England, Her Majesty and Saint George. Or possibly for Seattle, The Queen of the Goths and her Saint Clovis. One or the other.)

Meara, I dunno what to say that hasn't been said already. Keep your chin up, lean on us, we are here for ya.

In the mean time, if your cable has it, tune into Womens Soccer - USA vs Norway. They just hit half time. USA down 2-0. Watch, cheer. We need it. Plus, rawr factor is very high. Won't make problems go away, but distract ya for a bit.

Darn tooting!

Probably both options, just to be safe.

Sorry to hear about the vampire moths. That shit be messed up, yo.

That shit be messed up, yo.

This emerging from virtual-Pete's virtual-mouth just made me spurt real cherry limeade all over my legs and desk.

See, I'm totally charmed by the notion of vampire moths. But then, they aren't anywhere near where I am.

Or possibly for Seattle, The Queen of the Goths and her Saint Clovis.

If Clovis gets a sainthood, does that mean we can finally start our cult? We've been very patient ...

Virtual WIN.

I'm not sure you can have a sainted devilbunny. it would be like having salty sugar... something's gotta give.

Tis raining in Colorado and I'm slightly tipsy.

That shit be messed up, yo.

Oh, Pete, that is adorable.

I'm not sure you can have a sainted devilbunny. it would be like having salty sugar... something's gotta give.

Now I want a grey sea salt caramel ...

Anyway, of course the devilbunny can be sainted! All will be explained once you accept us as the leaders of your future. Trust us.
