'abby normal'
 
All along I felt like a nutcase-beyond-help because I'd buy costumes, watch shows over and over again, go to places where shows were filmed etc. But guess what, there are many others who do this kinda stuff, and it's not craziness. It's all just a bit of fun really. Blowing off a little steam from the real world and living in the world of make-belief for just a moment. There exist people who buy clothes because Abby might wear that kinda stuff, people who write to Noah, people who plan to take a million photos on the bench where Carby sat by the river in Chicago, med students who learn from ER...the list goes on. It's really normal. And common.
 
"So you may have come up here to be alone - but you're not." (Carter to Abby in Be Still My Heart, ER 6.13).
