Cordy...

Feeling much better today. Thank you to the people who responded to my friends locked post, your comments really did help. So did writing this little essay this morning, took my mind off things for a bit.

I rewatched Fredless ATS S3 this afternoon and for some reason I found myself crying along with Fred when she tells her parents she got so lost. Don't remember feeling quite that way the first time I saw it. Interesting. Really felt empathy for the character. Odd how an episode looks completely different after a long period between rewatchings, isn't it? Fredless and the first 6 episodes of S3, are the only ones I don't have on tape, so haven't seen them since they first aired. Thank god for TNT's decision to do reruns. Yay!

Anyhoo...here's the essay I posted on Cordy today on some of the fanboards...I know, I know, I mentioned leaving for a while and I probably will when I leave to see the folks from Dec 16th to Jan 1st, assuming nothing happens to stop it. This post in some ways is the twin to the Spike one below. Two characters that so many people don't quite get. Oddly enough in rewatching the episodes, I finding myself emphasizing a great deal with Cordelia...interesting.

Some good news

I heard back from the hematologist (the Wilson's Disease expert) and guess what? I don't have Wilson's Disease!! Whew.

Guess this means the tremor is an essential tremor like Kathryn Hepburn's - ie. they have no clue what causes my hands to shake but it won't hurt me. Going back to neurologist in January sometime to find out.

Feeling much better. One load of bricks off my back. Now if I can just get a job...
