    Have you ever read any Seneca?

    Specifically the Penguin Books Classic "Letters From a Stoic"?
    The only thing I remember of Seneca is a quote: "A dinner with your family is a good test for your stomach".

    Maybe I am going to read it, dont know yet.

    well a huge string pull secretly done from the Apollo back in 1969 showed conclusively that the Tooth Fairy was actually PDHed by the Vast Dental Conspiracy.

    I am truly into myself, yes. And I'm just as interested in other people. When I'm not thinking of one, I'm thinking of the other.

    Dobby rocks!!!



    Emma, it's a "spoiler" that he's still around in Book 7 and hasn't been tarred and feathered!

    That photo was the first thing I saw when I got to this thread. I mean, I could have had a heart attack or anything. You're a very wicked girl.

    Hey, Emma,

    I did actually get a chance to read book 7...I didn't have to wait til September or so to get it from Seattle Public Library... A friend from work loaned it to me.

    It was really really good...

    and yes, your point is taken...

    I even have time for hobbies, which right now seems to be wrecking on my mountain bike and healing, all the while complaining and enjoying the cuts and bruises.
    It feels weird. I too haven't used ethics or admin tech in years but I still think of it, then discard... strange for someone who has done the PTS/SP GAOT and is a fully hatted ESTO.

    I also keep waiting for someone to come yell at me for slacking off. What have you produced today? rings in my ears. As I sit watching tv, or painting just for the fun of it, I get a strong fear reaction about "getting caught" goofing off. The people I live with now think I'm quite odd, even tho they know about my life "on mars" (that's how we describe it).

    I'm having to learn how to play and have fun. I still feel guilty sometimes about being "off purpose" but then I realise how many purposes and doors are opened up for me now, and I can do any of them! wow, I can even go to college and learn stuff! (I know, kids aren't supposed to like school, but when it's been denied you your point of view is different.) I have to re-learn so many reactions to things that "wogs" find normal.

    Anyway, yeah, "me too"!
