Let me just reiterate that *blush*.  :)

Since I'm single again (it's been a whole week now!), I can use all the
pick-me-up's I can get!

I hear ya'.  I'm looking at the CD's I have here at the office, and
Drugstore, Belle and Sebastian, Liz Phair, and Elliott Smith were all
bought based on reviews.  I was much worse in Cinci - I can't walk into
Mole's on Short Vine without finding at least one CD that I want.  Oh well
- I''m sure there are much worse addictions I could have....
