Jazzin'D92 Posted February 21, 2007 Report Posted February 21, 2007 This has nothing to do with music, but how has everyone been? Quote
Dan Gould Posted February 21, 2007 Report Posted February 21, 2007 Pretty good, but my not-yet-paying job has gotten very time-intensive (don't ask, its a long story) and my folks are visiting us in Florida this weekend for the first time since our wedding day, so I'm a bit out of sorts trying to get the place presentable. How have you been? Quote
JSngry Posted February 21, 2007 Report Posted February 21, 2007 Things have been good. You still practicing? Quote
Guy Berger Posted February 21, 2007 Report Posted February 21, 2007 (edited) Deciding between a job offer that exists and one that does not yet exist. I will probably be moving to Charlotte NC this summer. Finishing up a PhD dissertation. Guy Edited February 21, 2007 by Guy Quote
GA Russell Posted February 21, 2007 Report Posted February 21, 2007 Hi Danielle! I spent this evening watching a movie from 1979 I had never seen called Breaking Away. It won the Oscar that year for Best Screenplay. It wasn't that great a movie, but it was enjoyable. It's been a long time since I've seen a French movie, but I used to think that those were the best!

jazzbo Posted February 21, 2007 Report Posted February 21, 2007 A little nervous. Back in Houston for tests . . . nervous to find good news about my wife's condition next week. Hoping. . .but it's really hard to hope thoroughly and convincingly. On top of that, the toad Governor wrote our agency out of the budget, dividing it between the agencies of two elected officials, and I'm not sure what is going to happen in the next two fiscal years.

Tom Storer Posted February 21, 2007 Report Posted February 21, 2007 Can't complain. And yourself? Quote

Stefan Wood Posted February 21, 2007 Report Posted February 21, 2007 I'm amazed I'm still conscious. Lost the truck, got a new car. My girlfriend feels that we are better off just being friends. My office is being moved from a beautiful sunlit open space to an underground pit with no windows, low ceiling and rumbling traffic from the street overhead. Everybody's stressing. But instead of crawling into a shell, I feel pretty good about myself and life in general. This is a change for me, a good one. Just a lot of things happening at once. Quote
Shawn Posted February 21, 2007 Report Posted February 21, 2007 Hanging on by my fingernails. Working a job that doesn't pay nearly enough for me to live off of, considering bankruptcy to alleviate pressure, have major dental problems and no money to fix them, car is on it's last legs, etc. In a nutshell...I'm miserable and have to fight everyday to keep from walking out into traffic.

jlhoots Posted February 21, 2007 Report Posted February 21, 2007 (edited) Have a nice day. Going out to lunch with my wife. Both of us going with friends to see some live music tonight. Can't complain. Edited February 21, 2007 by jlhoots Quote

Don't you dare Shawn! I lost one friend a few decades ago that literally did walk out into traffic, and I swear I won't lose another! It's going to get better, by inches, slowly but surely. (I keep telling myself the same thing too). Quote

Sorry Shawn. Like Lon said, things will get better eventually. Hang in there and be tough. Back to the original question....I'm doing great, thank you for asking! My life seems to have always been a series of high peaks and low valleys (never plateaus out), and right now, I'm on a high peak. Trying to soak it all in and enjoy it as much as possible! Quote
Noj Posted February 21, 2007 Report Posted February 21, 2007 My bank account dipped to 35 clams, I was flinchin' for a second there. Climbing out now. Shawn, let me join the chorus of support from all your friends here in hoping things get better for you, quickly! Quote
Niko Posted February 21, 2007 Report Posted February 21, 2007 (edited) haven't had a good idea since June and no results at all since November, whenever i look at the stuff I lose interest/concentration after less than 10 minutes which is simply not a good basis for anything ... my boss hasn't said anything yet which I really appreciate but i suppose it's just a matter of time... usually April and May are my best months but we are not yet there and i start to get nervous (and who knows whether this April will be as good as those of 2005 and 2006...)

Shawn Posted February 21, 2007 Report Posted February 21, 2007 Thanks for the kind words gang. I'm struggling to stay positive amid all the chaos, I don't give up easily. Quote
andybleaden Posted February 21, 2007 Report Posted February 21, 2007 im ok too. just recovering from taking flying lessons from my bike.really winded myself and damaged my shoulder. now I am restless,bored and sat at home til I can get back out cycling again...other than that...I am cool!lots of music to listen too Quote
chris olivarez Posted February 21, 2007 Report Posted February 21, 2007 Everythings cool. I've been working a lot and I've been traveling every weekend to cover high school basketball for the radio station. This weekend I'll be in Durango covering the district basketball tournament. The forecast calls for snow and Durango is a busy place with a fair amount of traffic so driving could be a headache and I'll really have to stay sharp this weekend. Quote

wulfman Posted February 21, 2007 Report Posted February 21, 2007 (edited) With our baby daughter the dust is still settling in my life. I am changing diapers more than I thought I would and surviving on less sleep that I thought was possible. Also learning a lot about patience. We are finishing up here in Manila in June and and moving to Beijing this August. I have a lot on my plate but am taking Friday off to go play a round of golf Edited February 21, 2007 by wulfman Quote
