b) Torian, I love you. *wry grin* And I really, REALLY wish that I were there with you right now. Nice dry weather would be great for getting rid of this stupid hacking cough.

c) ...erm... no? As far as I know, the weirdnesses around here the last few days are entirely unrelated ones and have no actual bearing on much of anything. I'm willing to listen if y'need to talk, and speaking from experience, nothing makes the jeebies of something like that go away faster than talking to someone who actually takes your word at face value. The particulars of your experience aren't ones I've encountered before, though the AU-me one was close for sheer creepyness, I think. Meh. Either way... don't turn your back on any mirrors, k?

d) Dear god amatryptaline how I love thee... sleep without waking up every half hour to cough up lung fragments and bits of my spine, yay!
