I’m tired. Exhausted. I’m on my third consecutive week of waking up in the wee hours, sheet twisted, hair sweaty and mind racing with post-weird-dream delirium. Like this morning when at 2AM when I woke up babbling in German. I blame my little gift of tongues moments on the opera I saw last night with Frankenstein (thanks Paul!).
God grant me Ambien.
Anyhow, remember when we did this? I think we should do it again. It’s amusing and just about all I have energy for at the moment. Shoot me your questions via email or just leave a comment. I’ll answer.
Please be aware that because I am over-tired (read: superhellawickedhypersensitive) and because this is my turf, mean or snide comments will not only not be tolerated, but I will send my Super Secret Ninja Squad to cut you.
Fire at will.

I want to know, if you really have to think about your posts when you write. Does it just come naturally, in a 20 minute sit down and a click of the publish button? Or does it entail more of a process?

What kinds of power come with being a famous blogger? Are there any? For instance, I’m sure a rant against a fellow blogger could result in tons of nasty email for that person. But is there anything more substantial that can be done? Is it just the sharing, letting people know they are not alone in their feelings? I suppose it depends on what satisfies you.
Have you ever been tempted to use your fame for ill? To spin tornados of flaming email into unsuspecting internet patrons?
i’d also like to know how the medical tests went
