Have to say that I am there with you. I work in customer service and some customers are great and some you want to ......well, lets just say you have very bad thoughts about them. I would so much like to pitch it all and go out and find something that was not "work". But, this f'ing recession devastated my 401 so much that I can not even make a move.

Could always be in Iraq or Afghanistan fighting for our lives with the small core of people that matter. Then if we make it home be haunted by living on such an edge that present living we have problems readjusting to those things that most of us take for granted like just plain 'ole Serenity who most misidentify as boredom. Gratitude is an amazing gift. Just an Old Timers prospective. Vietnam 70-71

when life gets in the way of life...

what is there to do when work gets crazy and you spend all your time trying to figure it out?
how do you deal with everpresent pain, soreness and tiredness?
what keeps it all in line when you just want to tell everyone within 10 miles to F off?
when a nap seems like perfection, but exercise is better for your health, which do you choose?
at what point do you decide to "work to live" rather than "live to work"? and how is the distinction made?
what is the timeframe you are willing to put up with an ass for a boss when the payoff is worth 10 years experience for your career?

and how often do you say no to medications and just bite the bullet, only to give up later and take the damn things?


well, sorry about that.
I cant tell if its just a long summer or if I am just a big wimp...


I felt like I was looking in the mirror when I read this.  Kind of what lead me to start this:http://www.norcalkayakanglers.com/index.php/topic,25845.0.html
