I don't want to grow up to be like that.

Hey guys, thanks for the positive vibes. I'll be re-engaging with various social contacts slowly; this is a big disruption on many levels, and an amazing time and energy sink. I'll also be looking to travel a lot more.

Dad is in, trying to change the whole house over into his image, and extremely intellectually negative all the time. I need to get a schedule together that gets me out of the house a significant part of the time, because listening to him will drive me crazy with anger fairly quickly. And I don't think it's just me (or rather, the facts of our previous relationships), he's just very very negative.

But the temperature has cooled off, the tomatoes are still producing, the sink has been fixed, and I'm moving forward with contracts. I need to get daily workouts worked in and spend less time on the computer, wonderful tool and even better time waster that it is.

Hey, perhaps this will allow me to generate interest in pounding the pell more!

*LOL* It's not just bad technique, but a weak arm. Friedrich has a sword that MANY say is too heavy. It is for me. After all, I have enough problems holding up a rapier, let alone the 10 lbs or so of his rattan monster...

You Dad's intellectual negativity could be actual depression... just something to keep in mind. I only mention it, because I see a LOT of similarities in behaviors here.... if you need to talk more private about this subject, email me.

I'm here if you need company

I'm currently having a fairly random schedule, so if you need to get out - call me on my cell and (cue music) I'll be there for you...

Not always, but a lot of the time at least!
