Hi. My name is Ara. I can't stop DPCing.

I update all the time.
I can't wait for the next challenge.
I entered Team Sports, and I don't even like team sports.
I think the June free study will drive me insane.

Will I ever get better?

You actually take the time to check your email.....FIRST? You may have some inherent resistance...

You think it's bad now, Ara?
Did you know that in 30% of cases, DPC Syndrome is followed up with an L disease infection? There's no cure for that either!

I thought bankruptcy was the cure for the dreaded 'L' disease...

I've been getting some L-rashes around my wallet... no full-fledged outbreaks yet. When I looked at some of the pimples, they clearly had little 17-40s and 70-200s written on them though...

Yeah, if I had to take pictures as well as swoon in and out of my lens fever-dreams and update click spasms, I'd probably get worse...

Can we get group rates on maid service, daycare, divorce lawyers and dry cleaners? And maybe bill our insurance for the therapy? Or is there a pill they prescribe for this? Seriously -- I really do have a hard time getting anything else done lately!!

Wait till you take some shots, you're working on them in Photoshop and your dear loved ones don't believe they are not for a challenge... 'No really, I just took this 'cause I thought it looked cool! I mean it!'
