Dom,

I'm sooo sorry everything's so bad with your family. I know it hurts to see those you love hurting, especially when there's really nothing you can do to make it better. It's very frustrating. Soooo, I guess you just need a . I'm sure your Dad appreciates your just being there for him talk to when he's ready. As a Dad, I certainly would.

Personally, as a rabid fan, let me know who the guy was who had the audacity to tell the most talented author here how to write, and me and Guido will "take care of it" .

Have a Merry Christmas Dom, we love you.

Rick

Wouldn't work. Anyone that has already decided you are dishonest enough to change a sotry to thwart people from guessing what's coming next would never believe you'd actually plotted it out in advance, or if you ahd, would show him the real outline. But about the rest of your life, well, shopping can be helpful. For me, it isn't the actually spending of money that I enjoy, but the moment when they open the gift and realize that you were really thinking of them. Making someone else's day always makes mine. It might sound self-congratulatory the way I'm saying it, but it is just how I feel.

I hope you are succesful tonight, and that you feel better soon.

We can not only say bitchy, we can spell it too.

Well Dom. if you feel like shopping I can dig out a list for you...

Actually I'm not even picky. I'm apparently easy to please... unless someone bought me a dress or dolls that would make me upset. Although I bet the look on my face would be one of those Master Card ads... priceless

Sorry your in a downer mood, I hope things work out for you and your father.

All the best,

Bardeara

Maybe watching this will cheer you up...it did for me when I watched it... =)

anyway, I hope that everything works out for you family...I mean when something goes bad, it can only get better right?

And please send me the email address of that guy who told you how to write, because I've got 4 hours to kill and that's a lot of time to spam him.

For the cold weather part, I wouldn't know about it...I live in hawaii...but I'll pray that it goes back up to the 60's

I look forward to the ending of TOSOM and the continuation of WT (all happening when you feel ready of course)!

=)

All my sympathy but these things just have their own momentum. I always think to myself of the line "A fool in the service of others can be wise" if I am ever tempted to smugness when I contemplate the wreck of the lives of my friends. Contemplating my own life is not so easy.

Re TOSOM I am pleased to hear it might be finished soon. Am afraid to mention that I would love to see WT kick started again. But there I have done it.

BTW Rick I am loving your story.

Punch her in the throat.

PaPa Roach sounds like a good idea though lol
