Especially since we made them up. They're the triple goddesses of sex, essentially: arousal, sex, and orgasm. We just prefer Lust, Chaos, and Ecstasy. Because saying, "Hi, I'm Arousal" has such a clinical ring to it. That’s okay, Erica. Especially since we made them up.

Just about went blind before it occurred to me to switch browsers. Looked again using Mozilla and it was fine. And I'm now convinced Jenny doesn't sleep at all. Plus she's apparently figured out how to make time stand still for long stretches so she can accomplish all this stuff. Susan, I had the same problem when I first looked at it using Netscape.
