I ordered a pile of cookery books off amazon, and now in my "Other people who bought items in your recent history also bought" section they have a home enema kit.

How worried/grossed out am I supposed to be?

Newtus: I just called this woman at The Hope Concept in Fort Worth: http://www.thehopeconcept.com/ Her name is Jen. Her number is (512) 966-6830. I think it's her cell phone, because she just said 'hello' when she picked up. Her email is jennifer@thehopeconcept.com. They do peer support there. Kind of like life coaches. She says she'd be happy to hear from you.

You're welcome to ring me, but I have nothing to say either. I'm very, very depressed right now.
Thank you. I'm sorry to hear that you're feeling really depressed too

Full disclosure:
I actually *like* syrup of figs, so sometimes I put it on pancakes.
Also I sometimes use antacid tablets as a leavener in my German gingerbread biscuits ("lebkuchen").

If she can't help you because 1.5 hours is too far, maybe she can point you in the direction of someone more local.

And big thumbs up to Costello for ringing her up

I am watching a Horizon documentary, and there's a 100-year-old man who completed the London marathon. I remember passing him, actually, but I NEVER would have believed he was 100. Amazing.

I used to live in a place like that; I didn't like it too much. Do you like it?

I don't know your name or where you live. I just told her you needed support and weren't sure where to turn.

650 sure does sound like a place where everybody knows everybody

I had quite a good day today. I did computer support for a small company, and got a lot done. That is a good feeling.
But it was miserably cold and snowed when I had to fetch the kids from school. We have a couple of million drivers on the roads in my little town, and very few of them know to drive carefully in the snow. What headlights? They must be caught up in the energy saving drive! A police car decided to do a U-turn in the middle of thick traffic, and screamed off as though he was on a dry race track. (I was too slow to offer him a referral to my pdoc.)

Now my mood has fallen through the floor boards. I probably just need to get some sleep to get over it.

Snow? Snow still exists somewhere in the world? I thought we were just a burning hot ball of desert now!

LOL. Costello & Fish, enjoy the heat
I'm sure I wore the enamel off my chattering teeth today. Hey! The positive effect must be about 4lbs of energy consumed today
