Moon- There are no ill intentions or sarcasm behind my words of gratitude. The reason I say 'Thanks~' is because I'm flattered when others read my posts thus I want to thank them accordingly for taking the time out of their day to do it. 

In reality it is just shorthand for 'Thanks for reading' 

Katelyn - I'm afraid I took your advice to sleep a tad earlier than I predicted. Apologies if I left you waiting for a response. 

It is quite saddening how a religion based on loving others has so few followers with that admirable trait. 

I'm glad that you found it to your tastes. 

Thanks~
