Where do you go, if everything is coming down on you and you have nobody to talk to?
Husband deployed,
best friend (abroad) only reachable by mobile phone and I cannot afford it at the moment,
best friend (in the same country) had children recently and seems to have too many of her own problems,
another very good friend gone for about a week.
I think I am going to bed!
Things will probably look brighter in the morning!
O no, the 'other'-button got lost on the way...
NOTHING is going right, today!!!!
I will talk to you, Bohne, and I will wash your troubles away.
Come here. Lay you head on my lap. Begin to talk.
Feeling better already, how do you do this?
What's wrong Bohne? Tell us, we'll listen....
She doesn't need you, Jane. I am here. All is right with the world.
Ph! Yeah, like you know what European girls need!
I am a student of women of all countries, and particularly those of the Eastern African Seaboard.
Ah the frontiers of German East Africa.
Have you ever floated lazily down the Congo, Jane? Have you witnessed parrots crisscrossing the river in such a fashion as to resemble rainbows? Have you watched the men with spears down gazelles from a distance of thirty yards?
I think not.
And so, do not make light of my African references.
I am just so angry right now. So very, very angry.

Yes I have! I go to the San Diego Zoo every year!
You are a very difficult woman.
Yes... yes I am. It is my cross to bear.
