It's really good for working out worst case scenarios, but best of all it doesn't matter since it's all fictional. :-) Though I have to say I still get upset when one of my favourite characters gets killed off. <BR/><BR/>Currently we feel as if we're in some sort of disaster movie ourselves, whatever I do or don't do it's all *my fault* and whatever happens it'll be *all my fault*.<BR/><BR/>Not helped by just not being able to sleep last night - every time I began to drop off something happened to make me wide awake again. Phone call, mobile phone text message arrived noise, John wandering down the landing in the middle of the night calling me as he thought he heard me calling from the bathroom (despite the fact I was lying in bed beside him), snoring, noisy music show on TV, etc etcMaggiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13630530599678517169noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6432201290620111119.post-28163402532112093732007-09-05T13:47:00.000+00:002007-09-05T13:47:00.000+00:00That's right, Pants, and believe me the CBT crew n...That's right, Pants, and believe me the CBT crew nearly did for me - but I stood firm.

I just wouldn't feel comfortable letting go of it. <BR/><BR/>I would never go for therapy - someone might try to talk me out of what I KNOW to be true and then where would we all be?<BR/><BR/>xxx<BR/><BR/>PantsPantshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00712642194215828800noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6432201290620111119.post-43448204846573052632007-09-05T11:09:00.000+00:002007-09-05T11:09:00.000+00:00So let me see: we have Anna in Finland, Mr. Moon ...So let me see: we have <B>Anna</B> in Finland, <B>Mr. Moon</B> toppling in the USA and <B>Fluttertongue</B> and <B>Nicola</B> here on Albion's shore with me.

'Serene' is the word most often applied to me though I am very far from being. My guess is that it's something to do with the fact that I have a quiet voice and a sort of Mona Lisa-like deadpan expression which usually means I'm not understanding what's going on and worrying about that!<BR/>All in all, with such a flaw, I am relieved to be in such good company.<BR/>Glad you are back safely from Edinburgh, Signs.Unknownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00112821049194722614noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6432201290620111119.post-41936561621266729872007-09-05T07:49:00.000+00:002007-09-05T07:49:00.000+00:00I can truthfully say I am well up there with the a...I can truthfully say I am well up there with the anxiety crew.
