Muffie--you're among friends, here, none of us are out of our jammies either. As long as you're able to make coffee and feed the furballs, I don't see as how you have a problem.....

Yeah. No job. And I'm not sick or in the hosp anymore. So more time for allnurses. Imagine the stories we could pass on at our own version of 12 step meetings. Brian will be the honorary leader!

I too must admit my addiction. It all started a month ago...and now can't seem to stop. Day and night,night and day. It's all about allnurses. Is there some kind of medication or ECT for this. Help me please. My hubby is threatening to withhold the coffee if I don't stop...PLEASE...

Will anyone else admit to getting up in the middle of the night to use the bathroom and logging on to see what's going on with allnurses? Ever ended up not going back to bed? Giving yourself 1 hour and ending up 5 hours later almost falling asleep on the keyboard? Yes, Yes and Yes !!!

Admitting it is the first step . . . but do you really want to change? :coollook:
