I'm sorry I didn't answer sooner - I did get it; I'm just.... honestly? Dealing with a full-fledged nervous breakdown. My therapist pulled me out of work and put me on more-or-less house arrest because I fell apart badly enough to be completely non-functional. It's taken me most of a week to get back to a point where I can do much beyond lie on the couch and cry; and this is all to do with stuff that you ran into on your journey.

I'm working through it; I just need a little more time to process what you wrote. Thank you, though; it will be incredibly helpful when I'm ready....
