Hurray now I’ve posted TMI and I can add that to the MISIPIMS thread:)

I just discovered this thread yesterday, and don’t really have much to add to it…

Hmmm, Ross and others have already spoke now of what I could answer with so I could go ahead and forever hold my peace. I dunno. Unless you’ve occupied your mind 24-7, it’s only natural to wonder if the grass is greener on the other side. And since **SterlingN** has always been a yawn away from death by ennui, the thought has come up on occasion. Of course I’ve also thought about how various aspects of me could be different, like how would I’ve turned out differently if I was a young lass in Tunisia or something along those lines.

Not that I haven’t wondered about the mysteries of the multiple O, or what.

Maybe I am just strange.
