Okay, I'm a Dummy
My neck was giving me fits tonight, and I still had some muscle relaxant from the last time this happened, which is good because it doesn't hurt any more. But bad because I'm typing five words a minute, and thinking about that fast as well.
If I was an adventurer, I'd try some poetry and see if I get all deep and stuff, but I think I'll go to sleep instead.
I did good though, because I let you know ahead of time I'm not blogging instead of saying "I'm sorry I missed last night," after the fact. I always appreciate it when my regularly read bloggers say they're going to be taking a break for a few days. I thought you might appreciate a heads up as well [it took me four times to spell 'heads' right. Yippee.]
Yeah, so imagine this post with a slurred voice and you got me pegged [don't worry, Steve's here to watch the kids, but they're in bed now, so it doesn't really matter]
Egad.
Just so you know, I've been thinking of taking a computer break [or more accurately, an Internet break]. I may be away from e-mail and blogs for a few days. We'll see if I can manage it!
I'd like to concentrate on Thea's story, and getting caught up on some book reading [I still have Collected Fictions to read, which I won from Doug. I'd put the links in, but, well, I'm sleepy.]
Anyway, everybody take care until I get back. I may be gone as long as Monday, February 20th, but I doubt I'll wait that long.
See you then.

Don't try to conquer Borges all at once, Shelbi. A story here, a story there. Read some of his shorter stuff & see if you develop a taste for him.
Hope you feel better.
Thanks for the support and well-wishes, guys. I'm a dork, with a slight anxiety disorder, so I get a little freaked out sometimes.
I'm better now, and remembering to meditate every day, especially when I'm experiencing stress [funny thing, stress, it makes me forget about all the cool coping mechanisms I've learned. Sheesh]
So anyway, I'm back.
Hedgehog, I got the e-mail, but haven't responded yet. Maybe tomorrow.
rof, thanks for the support, I really appreciate it. I do try to do too much sometimes, but my body/mind is really good at letting me know about it. Everything shuts down until I deal with the issue.
Heh, subtlety isn't my strong point.
Doug, I was trying to get through one story, but I read his intro where he said something like, "There's no point to one of these stories, and that's why I wrote it." and I thought, "What if it's this story? I can't handle it if it's this story, I can't deal with stories that have no point! Is he trying to make me crazy[ahem, crazier].
And on and on. There are days when I scare myself.
But I'm better now, and not medicated or in a padded cell, so it's all good.
heh hee heehh *giggles and rocks back and forth in her chair*
