My life now lacks the ability to create laughs in me, simple chuckles. I wish i had a funny story. I am overwhelmed but hope there is light (and laughter) at the end of this tunnel.

Ummmm do we mean discuss, like to talk amongst one another? Or discus, like the thing that people throw in the Olympics? Or is dicuss really a word, in which case I am totally failing the GREs next month!

I loved the book The Mists of Avalon. I read it over and over and could imagine myself some beautiful fairy princess trolling between two worlds, crossing over and in between the mists by riding on a scary boat in the dead of night.
