How you doing?
I'm doing pretty well, though getting over a nasty cold.

How's life with you?

1. I'm OK.
A bit overworked and sick of travelling and sick of being in traffic and sick of stupid fucks that can't drive the fucking behemouths they buy...other than that life is swell.

4. There's some upheaval at work
but I've been getting fairly regular and heartfelt 'atta-girls' from the boss, the boss's boss, and the boss's boss's boss.

Wrote somethings I pretty proud of, and I'm in the middle of a complete overhaul of my web pages.

Basically, things are good.

:hi:

Sounds like your creative juices are flowing too.

24. y'know...
I'm genuinely sorry that you got mugged, Carlos, but the fact that you're projecting your fear on the lives of others is truly weird. It seems like it's consuming you, and it shouldn't.

You've gotten some good advice from other DUers. Please follow it. Talk to someone, and forego the gun.

Hope it feels better. A drag working when you don't feel well.

8. Thanks for asking
I'm unemployed, but kind of enjoying the time off (and kind of not). It's nice to be able to read so many books I've been meaning to read and spend more time with my wife & kids and stay up until 3AM if I feel like it.

There are downsides, but I'm trying to think of this time as a sabattical.

Glad to hear you're getting over the cold. By the way, do you find that after an illness is over, or after physical pain that you've had has gone, that it's difficult to remember exactly how the illness or pain felt? That's my experience.

19. This one isn't over yet...
Edited on Fri Nov-07-03 08:36 AM by Armstead
This cold (flu) is one of those lingering ones. Seem to be on the mend, but it occasionally still comes back to bite me.

Glad you're enjoying your sabbitacal. That's the best way to look at it.

I sort of had that image in mind. Probably should have say YA originally.

22. Working hard - well, hardly working
But I finally got the last few bits of an old project wrapped up today.
So now I don't have that nagging away at the back of my mind and I can concentrate on goofing off on DU the new project.

28. Okay, but I just moved, and boxes are stacked chest-high...
In utter confusion. Lost things surface for a moment, then disappear again, as if drawn down by an undercurrent.

Have to walk through rooms sideways, to avoid toppling the stacked boxes, some of which are labeled, some of which are not. (Makes for an interesting time -- here we have a t-square, a koala beanie, my planner, the extra car keys and a pack of Whiskas cat treats. Okay.)

On the upside, there's a roof overhead!

:toast:

29. Feelin' Great!
My incision is healing nicely and I'm in no pain at all! I'm still a little groggy from my pain pills, but at least I can walk again!
