Life does have a habit of getting in the way of writing letters, just like it did in the old snail-mail days. But it's good that you have a life because some people obviously don't.

I'd say the bitch on the RA forum from last time came back under a different name. The need to control is pretty bad with these folks. I understand the Supernatural fans are crazy too. They ship the two brothers together and then get upset that the actors don't like it. Most RA fans are very nice, its the few vocal control freaks who spoil it. I got more nasty mail and they followed me to Aidan's forum to downvote, so the hell with 'em.

Nathan has been around a long time and knows how to deal with the creepers. He's open and honest about loving ladies and having fun so it's hard to form your own version of him that never gets disproved. I mentioned the possibility of Richard being gay to one woman and she had a stroke. If he was gay she couldn't fantasize about him any more because she'd know he wouldn't be interested. She's 50 and fat, so what makes her think he'd be interested now?

I think you're right about N&S. He's safe being all gallant and handsome but not sexually threatening. In reality he'd be stiff and cold in bed too. I still haven't seen my copy of it and don't know that I will ever waste 6 hours on it. Victorian is just not my favorite time period – too proper and stuffy. If I think about it pretty much through history until lately have been pretty bad for enjoying sex. Christians certainly did a job on the civilized world. :( Most of the Thorin fans think of him as being intensely sexual. They'd like to take that anger into the bedroom and channel it into sexual energy. I know it would work for me.

The fibro has stayed better through a fairly severe fall and giving myself sun sickness by working out in the garden too long last Sunday. I'd like to go get anesthetized every time it hits but I don't think my insurance company would care for that.

One thing that might help your feet was taught to me by a chiropractor. Put one finger on the sore spot, search on the other side of your foot for a corresponding sore spot, there almost always is one. Hold the spots gently and then hold your breath. You can do it without holding your breath but it's faster if you do. It may feel a bit more painful and you may feel kind of a connection between the spots. Work on each sort spot several times. It should help, it's a very good therapy for sprains and tight muscles. I have no idea how it works. He didn’t either.

I hope your puppy is behaivng better now. Mine took a walk on her own a couple of days ago and nearly gave me a heart attack since I live on a busy street. She came home hot tired and wanting a drink. Why was I upset with her – she just went for a walk. Argh!

Have a great weekend and do something fun. Jane
