You Aussies always get things first. Just wanted to see how everyone is feeling the morning after.
I came down with the flu Xmas Eve....so my 'Yule Tide' was pretty much crap, really. Then I had the inconsiderate demands of quasi-clients [not mine - one of my builders'] PRESUMING I'd pull my finger out just for him to work over the alleged 'break' ... [the 'break' which was already fully committed to house-painting....so the extension that has been in 'the works' since 1987 might actually one day be finished].
Did I get 'pissed' on the Eve?....yes....to aid in forgetting that I was already pissed [off].
Still....Jan 1/2/3 so far has seen me on the pointy end of a paint roller ....and the 4th will be similar.
Oh....I also fell over a day or two after Boxing Day.....[dizziness/imbalance due to the Flu]....and now have an impressive trophy of a bruise on my left hip....but at least now I'm not limping.
What keeps me 'sane' is the gleefull knowledge that no matter how stressed or stupid I can feel...there will be a BIGGER IDIOT eventually posting on Wincustomize.com lamenting how his Warez Copy of Windowblinds has f***ed his system totally and he has lost all his work/etc ....and I smile wryly as he is banished to extinction.
All in all....Life Is Good....
