I kept trying to say an "Our Father" for the Martin family but couldn't even get all the way through it. Just laid there in mental torment. I'm tired today, as a result. And yeah, I have work to do, and I just can't deal with it. Too messed up, internally - at least at the moment. Your answer is terrific, ms liberty. "At least I have a heart to bleed."

As my late mom used to say (I'd apply it in this case to the CONservative mindset), "heart like a BB."
