Listening post!

Sometimes I wish I could just pick up the phone and speak to someone who'd be non-judgmental, patient, empathetic and above all, just plain loving.

Loneliness! (Damn that Grey's anatomy, they pick on little nuggets of human emotion and it strikes a chord). It's a tough act to follow and I'm going to get Uncle Oscar for 'best actress' in the Only the Lonely (forever)!

Thank you blogdom, blogspot, online diary, listening post, confidante, whatever!Thank you for being there when I needed you. I only wish you could make the right sounds or put your arm around me, or hush and sush me and say the right things. I needed you today, and you were there, right where I left you.

I started the day by saying I felt numb. As the life out of this day ebbs and a sweeping stillness settles over it like a warm comfortable quilt, I guess I can just be happy that I feel sad after all. (Does that sound batty?)
