Awwww. Thank you Pictoratus, bordfryr, digital_k, Xendre64, Old Crab, Stumpy, Styl, Red Hot, Snidely and Chickie for the advice and cheer and graciousness.
Sorry to blubber here (I swore to myself I wouldn't do it again argh)! I refuse to turn my threads into a bad 3 part mini-series.

Self-pity doesn't do me any good...I know I have to pull myself up by my boot-straps. I just wish some feelings didn't have to hurt so much. I'll be back to my annoying silly self in a month or so I imagine. I dunno what is worse though...a pathetic, teary-eyed Shmoopy or an obnoxious, hyper, overly chatty one.
Chickie...you're such a sweetie (((BIG HUG))) I know you've had your own life stuff to deal with lately...makes mine look really silly and yet you take time out of your life to lend a kind word of support and good advice to me (((THANK YOU)))
BTW, Snidely, you meant "Somebody" not "Someboy" I presume.

Sorry, that gave me a chuckle.
