Shattered Sun

T-minus 21 minutes til the new year here in Arizona. For my mates in Australia, it’s already 2004 by many hours, but you know how us Americans are. It’s all about us! LOL! Anyway, I can’t help but say good riddance to 2003. I’ve had better years. So have most people I know, lol. But 2004 is shaping up pretty nicely for what I can see. So, this year, here’s my list of wishes for all of you. Heck, I wish them for myself, too! :grin2:

And to end the seriousness, here’s what I’m hoping to do this coming year:

The most destructive habit…………………………Worry The greatest Joy…………………………………………Giving The greatest loss…………………………………………Loss of self-respect

The most satisfying work……………………………Helping others The ugliest personality trait………………………Selfishness The most endangered species…………………Dedicated leaders

Our greatest natural resource…………………Our youth The greatest “shot in the arm”…………………Encouragement The greatest problem to overcome……………Fear

The most effective sleeping pill……………………Peace of mind The most crippling failure disease………………Excuses The most powerful force in life……………………Love

The most dangerous pariah…………………………A gossiper The world’s most incredible computer…………The brain The worst thing to be without………………………Hope

The deadliest weapon…………………………………The tongue The two most power-filled words…………………”I Can” The greatest asset………………………………………Faith

The most worthless emotion………………………Self-pity The most beautiful attire……………………………SMILE! The most prized possession………………………Integrity

The most powerful channel of communication……Prayer The most contagious spirit…………………………Enthusiasm

Jason E: my tits hurt already

Out of context, that’s hilarious to me! It might be the fact that it’s 2:30 in the morning, I’m not really sure. But a guy telling me that his tits hurt…

To put it in context, we were talking about him being sore tomorrow from his workout in the gym today.

Well now, it’s been a month on the Effexor XR and the change is amazing. I’m grateful not to have to play the find the right pill game and found it on the first try. I’m also grateful that it’s working beyond just what I’m seeing. Everyone is noticing and commenting to me about it. I know that it doesn’t seem like a big deal to you but even Jason’s mom noticed while she was here! Life is better, I can tell you that much! What I find intersting is that I’m starting to think I should get back into the Web Design business and I was really anti-business for a long time. I got burned out on it and really stressed but now we’re beginning to wonder if it wasn’t so much the business but my lack of ability to handle the pressure properly. I have this horrible habit of internalizing when I stress. So instead of letting others share the stress with me, I try to bear it all myself. That’s really unhealthy. Anyway, I just thought that I’d let all of you adoring fans (ha ha) know that I’m doing much better, feeling much better, and have a clearer outlook on everything! *mwah! Off to help someone with their photolog… See y’all on the flipside!

That’s right! Today is the very last Monday of 2003! Where has the year gone? Anyway, enjoy!
