Oh, its perfectly fine. I have my sources that will continue to encourage my delusions of grandeur. But I enjoyed flaunting a confirmation of normalcy from an outside source :)

I think I just heard my ego deflating. For one day, I owned normal ;)

Thanks for your vote of 'normal'. I'm showing that to my asylum warden :)

I'm going to disconnect from you, then send you a new connection request. I'm not getting notified of anything you do. I don't know if you've published anything recently, either. I'm not told of your comments or comments on my stuff.

I'm still loving Hawthorne, madly.
