Another pretty good night. Steady, for the most part, then dead from about 04:00 on... I got a lot of sleep yesterday, not waking up until about 19:30. Ten hours!

Has anyone written "The Idiot's guide to life" yet? Or "Life for Dummies? I think that there would be a strong market for them. Of course, you couldn't strictly aim at the dummies for the marketing... after all, dummies don't have any money, and that's one of the main things to look for in a market...

O'wait! I don't have any money! Does that mean...

No, let's not go there. Not right now, anyway.

I've determined that I have a major attitude problem. One of my good friends pointed this out to me after reading the last coupla months' worth of entries.

Something has changed, she said.

I don't seem to like my job so much, I don't seem to be enjoying life so much, I'm not nearly as funny as I used to be.

Made me think, she did. Sometimes I like that, sometimes I don't. This time I didn't.

Because I don't see an easy solution, not one that I want to pursue, anyway.

And this whole thing is weird, 'cause I had my mid-life crisis about 16 years ago. Maybe that was too early, and it didn't take right or something.

Somebody give me the answers, please....

It's almost enough to make me wish that I could believe in the supernatural... have a god to give me the answers, guide the way. Fortunately, all I see are his minions, and that does something for restoring my sense of humor.

I guess that has always been my way... humor.

There is damn near nothing that I can't laugh at. I've got in a lot of trouble over the years for that, and I'm sure that I will continue to do so.

I wish that I could make a living doing that...

More tomorrow... O'yeah! I just remembered! The last Diarist.Net Journal Survey Results is on-line now!


Thanx for being here!
