Alex, Angel Girl, everyone else. This is not an attempt to make anyone else feel bad. I will be gone for a while, then I will very likely be back. But right now, I need to just "lie down" for a while. All this sturm-und-drang on PB is spilling over into my real life and causing my rapid-cycling BP to spin out of control. Yesterday, when I blew up at my boss, and I knew deep down that it was because I'd become too emotionally involved with Babble, I realized I simply needed a holiday. Angel Girl, Alex, I hope you'll stay around. But the manic aggression that's running away with me on PB is manifesting itself in corrosive ways IRL, and that I simply can't have. I need a few weeks or so to cool down and regain my equilibrium. My emotions are just running way too close to the surface and are simply much too unstable right now. I've got to reachieve some kind of tranquility or I'm only going to get worse. Thanks for your concern. And to Susan, yes, I did ride a motorcycle, but it was smashed in a wreck (along with a good bit of my left knee -- only the slightest of limps there these days). I hope you all can understand why I need to do this -- and I hope you won't hold it against me. Ta. ;) Atticus
