Dear Blaboo,
What do you do when your house is falling apart, your children are starving to death, and your cat won´t stop screaming because you refuse to leave your computer ( ie Writing.com ) for more than 20 seconds ? / AL

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Dear poor, sweet,  " Boy, Have I Got a Massive Case of the Royal Guilts! "   AL,

Aunt Blabby is SO glad she could ride in on her white steed, swoop you up, and deliver you from this devastating dilemma! The answer to your burning question follows...

Take each of your next three 20-second breaks to do the following:

1. Call Merry Maids and hire them in weekly. If you find this option cost-prohibitive, tell the kids you'll feed them as soon as they finish cleaning the house.

2. Stuff a sock in the cat ( both ends ).

3. Throw a quart of water and a few dozen Ballpark Franks in the slow cooker, set it on "Serve on Demand', and tell the kids to shut up and help themselves.

Fear not ~ intial addiction to this site is an exceedingly common occurence and not at all dangerous ~ unless your're peeing in a coffee can at your desk. (Yours would not be the first accidental electrocution...) After a bit, your interest will settle down to the level of 'Dull Roar', and you'll find yourself comfortably transitioning from the 'Utterly Obsessed" Phase to the exceedingly pleasant and rewarding 'Mildly Addicted' Stage ~ joining the ranks of a multitude of others who understand exactly where you're coming from!

Yours in staying on the wagon,
Aunt B.
