I'm thinking it probably does. I've noticed that the other 2nds are in the same boat emotionally. One of them is so amazingly funny - she keeps getting into snark sessions with folks right before ritual, then calling the day after to beg our forgiveness. When I tell her its fine and I wasn't bothered by it that sparks another snark until I agree that what she did was horrible and forgive her just to get her to calm down.

I'm really *not* bothered by it as I figure she'll grow out of this phase soon enough and she's such an amazing person you can't really hold a grudge in any case. Its an odd situation to find myself suddenly the calmest person in the coven and folks are calling me constantly to forgive them. *WEG*
