I just thanked myself, have you thanked yourself?

1 Answer

Answer :

Do you mean you thanked yourself on Fluther? I seem to remember that something funny happens when you do that, but I can’t recall what it is! As far as keeping myself happy…at the moment, not too much. Mostly I’m just trying to keep myself together in a very uncertain time. I hope things will settle down soon, and then I can worry about happiness again.
