Thanks for the well-wishes, all! They are muchly appreciated.

You know when they say "all work and no play"? Well, they're right. Again. I finally took a couple days off for the first time in 4 months and rediscovered how much I was shooting myself in the foot by not having time to just play and have fun. Maybe the chaos wasn't all my fault, but it was my fault how I decided to handle it. Ah, the ongoing struggle for personal balance...

Speaking of which, my third class in Aikido is tonight at the Navel Academy. Whoo! This form is sure different than I thought it'd be! But its good for me, because it makes me accept my personal limitations (never going to be a Jackie Chan, I guess!) and learn how to work within them. Its very very different. I like it! Definitely something I'll be learning for years and years to come.

Well work calls. Later ya'll, go play already!!
