This just happens to be a topic in which I consider myself an expert. I could probably list days worth of horrors on my crazymaking that would make everyone here cringe...
I wish I could tell D9 your reaction! When she found out about the BB, she was initially jealous--jealous of time I spent on the computer and away from her. Then I told her that I was learning and writing to others as well.
She looked at me incredulously and said, "Huh? You mean that people actually listen to what you're telling them?" Ouch! But I'm pretty sure I felt that way about my mom when I was nearly 10 and a know-it-all.
The sad commentary is that my sister and I are in the unenviable position of "teaching" our parents the art of detaching. They have a ways to go and it's frustrating!
Time to go buy Mr. W. some chicken soup and send him on his way. It's girls night out and we're hitting the mall!
TTFN and big hugs.
