I haven't had a lot of time for Xanga lately. At 60, these 12 and 13 hour days I'm putting in at work for the past 3 1/2 months are very, very slowly wearing me down and taking their toll.

I try to get on for a few minutes in the mornings while I'm here alone to read a bit and comment when I can find time. I really am not trying to ignore anyone, it's just that there is so little time. By the time I get home in the evenings, have a few beers, get a little something to eat, a few more beers(haha), and spend a little 'quality time'(haha again) with Karen, I've pretty much had it for the day!

3am comes damn early every day!

Bear with me, please.

Really don't know how long this is going to go on, either.

Thought for a while about doing a "ISNORTTHENOSELUCIFER" and closing the account, but really don't want to do that. Too many wonderful friends on here, wouldn't want to lose any one of them.

BTW, I miss having Gabe around to annoy everbody with his recommending everything and everyone(HA!). Has anyone heard from him lately?
