I'm sitting in my office, surfing the internet blindly, listening to J read a story with his home-teacher in the next room, the kitchen. The two each read sections, and at the end of the story will discuss themes, plot, character, the usual. At one point in the tale, a son leaves his mother to serve in the Civil War. The two share a brief conversation and then the son says his goodbye, marching off. J interrupts and comments, "His mom didn't say she loved him. That sucks."
I smile to myself. I suppose some habits are a good thing. Telling those you love, that in fact, you do love them, is a good thing.

That's always nice. :)
Thomas' TS - Tagline from the movie "John Q" with Denzel Washington, "Give a father no options and you leave him no choice." As in this case a grandfather.
Thanks, David. It IS nice, isn't it?
Edd, I e-mailed you. Check out Tourette's Syndrome Association. If you e-mail them, they will send you a list of doctors/psychologist types who specialize in Tourette's. Don't delay, my friend! I do know about such desperation. I am so sorry you're feeling desperate. (((E)))
Sounds like music from the next room :)
Sweet. And thanks to Tamar for her comment.
You always leave the nicest comments. Life goes on doesn't it? Miss you...
Oh Patrick, I miss you, too. I miss all of you.
And by the way, you deserve the nice comments!
