awww, thank you so much pal, this makes me super happy (and does help with the rowing!).

I have to admit, my own main obstacle is just, Carter's death and the way they did it has made me so angry at the WRITERS that I am finding it really hard to actually watch the episodes as a viewer -- I am seeing through the episode to the writers beneath and just wanting to throttle them so much, and it makes it really hard to enjoy even the BEWILDERINGLY slashy Roman Holiday they have sent Harold and John off to have.
