I am a psychiatric registered nurse specialist in a women's prison.

It gives me a unique perspective on variations in forum participants behavior. Up to and including my own.

so sometimes the two do intertwine.

Maybe it was fiction when someone in the house i was in stick a gun to someones head and shot them? Didnt kill them but it took their ear off (the desired effect) and deafened them im sure for life. This was over a dispute of stupidity.

Or the time a friend thought it be a great idea to take 3 tabs of E and go into hyperdrive and we had to literally ice him down to save him? Maybe I dreamt that too.

Or how about the time I had a week long booking and It ended up being a horror story as the person was a religious freak and wanted to sacrifice me? was it that one?

Or maybe the time my BFF was beaten and dumped on Sunset blvd and I had to go down and get her and sit in the hospital while they put her face back together. Stitches are so permament maybe I imagined that?

Or how about the convention I was working/signing for and a fight broke out among fans and people got stabbed to death right in front of me?

Is that the fiction you are referring too? I can still see it like it was yesterday. Yes, I had many bad things but i had way way more good happen too. Trips to Bermuda, Photoshoots and cruises. Could i write a book? Most certainly. Ive actually considered it.

So you see. My life has been quite a adventure so far. Life fast Die young they say. But i think I managed to escape the second part due to the good head on my shoulders.

SL has been a fun outlet so far and I use it for other purposes too. I. or one of me , will continue to use it as I see fit.

Anymore peanut gallery comments?
I thought not.

Cieraously, don't worry about that book-writing thing until you've mastered the to/too issue. You'll only end up paying a small fortune in editors' fees.

Otherwise, it's clearly a grand life, full of shootings, stabbings and other random violence. Who wouldn't be envious.

I'm a psychotherapist specializing in addiction and Post Traumatic Stress Disorder.

As a retired veteran I always wanted to work with other vets, so until last December I was working with veterans who served in Iraq and/or Afghanistan. I am now on sabbatical doing completely unrelated research, because doing the above for almost 4 years was giving *me* PTSD. I was having nightmares and developed severe anxiety. So you can imagine how these men and women who were actually there are doing.

When my sabbatical is over (next Jan) I will either continue doing research, or go back to drug and alcohol counseling.

Thank you for your service and commitment to helping other veterans heal. We need more people like you. What you might learn on your sabbatical... wow...

Thank you once again.

You're welcome Lula.

It was my pleasure and privilege. And who am I kidding; the chances are very good that I'll go back to doing that, if only part time. The need for this particular expertise is great I'm rather sad to say.

I am the delusional ruler of my own imaginary world... but it kinda gets boring there, so that's why I come to SL.
