Shhhhhh!!!

Dr. Bob is working right now, probably on his material for the conference. He's facing north, and working on his computer. Hopefully he avoided the thunderstorms predicted for Chicago.

I'm happy you're excited about meeting Dr. Bob, but remember that he's just a guy with a picture on a computer. He writes messages on Psycho-babble, but so do lots of other folks. What makes him special?

just wondering.

Hmmmmmmm.....Hmmmmmmmm....

He's mysterious. We don't know anything about him. He doesn't interact like the rest of us. He has a lot of power here. I wrote all this distressing stuff to him and he wasn't upset by it. He doesn't seem to feel anger, frustration or fear like the rest of us. He's super stable. I feel protected by him and his rules. I dunno...I just like him a lot. Maybe it's Babble that I really like, but I've somehow transposed my feelings for Babble and Babblers onto a single person.

I'm not sure why thinking of him comforts me. Maybe there's a lot of subconscious stuff going on. LOL Maybe I think he should be my Dad. Yes, that makes sense. I want Dr. Bob to be my Dad. LOL

<Content sigh>

Writing all this about Dr. Bob is making me love him even more. My heart is melting right now. Simply melting with warmth and love.

I love it! :-)

I'm going to write about my experiences on the trip. I'm going to write about meeting Dr. Bob.

<happy sigh>

I feel this upwelling in my heart...literally! I really feel it! It makes me sigh in content. I imagine hugging Dr. Bob.

you're so positive, it's infectious, even if I can't share your enthusiasm, it still makes me happy to read it.

:-) I'm glad it's infectious. I wish everyone could feel what I feel. I've read that love can be like using cocaine. I think this is the case for me. It's just almost unbelievably pleasurable!

Sorry Ron, I think maybe you meant well?

I got upset and trigger happy with the DNP. I'm sorry.

I'm upset, but that's my problem and I need to deal with it. I just request that you be sensitive to my feelings. Thanks.

I can't believe this is really going to happen! I can't keep this excitement to myself.

I can't believe this is happening! I'm so excited! Aaaahhh! It's really going to happen! Aaaaaahhh! :-)

How do people keep this excitement to themselves? I don't know how to contain my emotions.

I'm really going! I'm really going! Aaaahhh! I'm so happy! I can't believe this. This is really going to happen. Me...in real life, meeting Babblers and Dr. Bob , in real life! REAL LIFE! real life! Aaaaahhh!

I'm packing right now. I'm packing. I'm leaving first thing in the morning tomorrow. Tomorrow! A few hours away! Aaaahhh! I'm literally quiet screaming at the screen right now! I'm literally saying out loud, "I can't believe this is happening! Aaaahhhh!" I'm actually saying, "Aaaaahhh!" LOL ROFL, okay, maybe not on the floor, but still LOL. :-)

Aaaahhh! I'm really going. I'm so excited. I can't believe this! I'm going to meet Babblers and Dr. Bob! Babblers! Dr. Bob! Babblers! Dr. Bob! Aaaahhh!

Hey, Deneb, see if you can post from somewhere during the weekend so you can share how it's going.
I hope you have fun - maybe I'll get to meet you some other time.

I just bought a new memory card for my camera. Of course, individual vetoes apply to any photos. You won't ever see any that aren't approved, eh?

BTW, I may not be much fun to hug right now. I'm diaphoretic from the pain, so I'm always clammy.

I guess I better get some sleep. It's gonna be a big few days ahead of me.

I can't believe how fast this week has flown by. Jehosephat! I'm going to have dinner tonight with a couple of Babblers! With a dozen + Bob, on the morrow.

Weehaa!

See y'all later, eh? I got some butter tarts to distribute, eh? Back bacon on a bun, for breaky, eh? Hoser.

Hugs to all,

LOL! Wishing you and everyone who
has the good luck to meet a real-life
psychiatry-celebrity. I wish I could make
these trips but i have medical reasons
why i can't.

Maybe, there will be photos posted?

Have a nice time everyone. A virtual bow

Yes, I got most of the Babblers to Swiss Chalet. And Bob did the back bacon on a bun thing. It's so funny, 'Mericans don't get this back bacon concept. Why would we call it Canadian bacon? Hmmmm?

I certainly praised Timmy's, but I'm not sure if it sunk in.

Maybe we'll wait and see what the 'Festers have to say.

LOL - Swiss Chalet? Is that Cosher? Back bacon -
geez you guys have been watching too many movies.
Each province's city in Canada is like a different country. Toronto is like Chicago, Montreal is like Paris, Calgary is like Texas, etc.

Take a look at one of our satirists' vision and political reflection:

Ontario's version of St. Hubert chicken, Squig. Both firms started at almost exactly the same time, the early 1950's.

That's what we call it in Ontario, Squig. Mike Myers was a FOAF when I was a teenager. He stole "No way!" "Way!" off me, when we were having coffee at Tim Horton's at Kennedy and Eglinton, SW corner, circa 1976. I receive no royalties, however.

> Each province's city in Canada is like a different country. Toronto is like Chicago,

Not! ;-) No offense to Chicago, but.....

> Montreal is like Paris, Calgary is like Texas, etc.

I don't know what you're talking about, Squig. Montreal is nothing like the Paris I went to, etc. I never saw smoked meat in Paris.

Now that's funny. Jean Poutine. I laughed hard at that, when it was first broadcast.

Note to 'Mericans. Poutine is french fries with cheese curds and (usually) chicken gravy (in the original form). Nowadays, though, mozzarella and beef gravy are more typical in Ontario. It tastes a whole lot better than it sounds, and it is guaranteed to fill that hunger hole. Poutine means "mess", more or less, and it sure looks like one.

Lar

P.S. To 'Mericans. You can tell that a Canadian is from Toronto if they pronounce it Trawna.
