I got it (and appreciated both the story and reporter's "advice", or parting words, or whatever you'd call it), but I think you knew I would :).

If I don't talk to you before I leave tomorrow-- *hugs*

A dream of suicide? Muchly resonant of 'Addicted', with the disturbingly alluring serenity . . . I'd never live that dream.

I have other dreams to live for . . .

Good, interesting write.
Thanks for sharing it.
