> It's important to express that, Noodle, and I"m glad you let us know.
i respect babblers and babble, so I worry that my absence (if anybody notices at all) might be misinterpreted.

> I'm sorry that you've experienced such a big loss and that you're having trouble with it. This is a tough place, for all of us, and we can only do what we can do.I hope I can feel more at home with it soon. Make it feel more natural. I miss kitty dearly. I'm getting a new kitty, but I'm going home today and I will walk in the door and not be greeted by my handsome kitty. :( :'( feeling fragile right now.

> I hope you're enjoying some of Washington-- I'm sure you'll do great when you give the talk-- it's nerve-wracking, I know-- but once you start to speak, you'll be fine.
>yeah, we had a lot of fun. I enjoyed the restaurants, and the hotel. We went to a museum, and saw a lot of the sites, from far and near.
It was nerve-wracking, but jammer gave me 20mg of propanolol and my autonomic nervous system refused to budge. no thumping heart, no clammy hands. all was well. I stuck to the script, and my timing was fine. This is more than I can say for Oliver Sacks.
> Remember-- it's just a bunch of people you're talking to--- not voracious monsters. Right?
>the pdocs seemed most interested. it was nice to have people interested in the things that ll does.
Thank you Nad,
