I want Calabash district seafood. I've got Captain Ds. This is a travesty.

Why did I ever move from North Carolina?

If you can hang onto the fact that they are cyclical and that there is another side, you're golden.

I get lots of things done during the manic periods :D

It had better.

That would be the Rated-G version of my initial response.

@kdfrawg Insane.

At least I have three hours to collect myself before I ask Sidekick why she paid 3400.00 for a new mattress.

I've always been leery about 'dropping anchor' in life in any way shape or form unless I damned well mean it. My marriage is one of those anchors. Unfortunately, where I work became another out of obligation (but it was dropped willingly).

I plan to "go sailing" again before I get too old though.

@kdfrawg Bingo. I know it is an unpopular idea but the market is glutted. Put some paywalls up and let some of them die off. Why? You'll be left with outlets featuring good, responsible writers and maybe, just maybe, bring a little respectability back to the profession.

Sometimes I regret not going on to my doctorate. It would have been a "safer" road. Teaching.

Just wish I wasn't so averse to "safer". Every time I am in that mode, I feel like part of me is dead.
