Approaching Autumn

Summer's almost over. I'll be glad to see the heat fade and milder temperatures emerge. The leaves will change colors, becoming brilliantly-colored natural fireworks in the trees, and we can look forward to change in our lives and in spirit.

I've had a very stressful Summer, a veritable repeat of last year. I've moved to New York, am currently battling a couple of medical problems, and I'm frustrated beyond belief, but moving on as firmly as ever, if a bit more bemused and carefree as before. It's probably good for me to battle some of these serious issues; they make me a bit less picky/anal-retentive about the small stuff. lol

Well in any event... I'm off in a new place, still "me," enjoying all the new cities and towns I've seen, and I have a new (FAST) computer with a huge LCD flat screen monitor (19"), and I'm enjoying the small things as I fight through the big things in my life.

I've made more and more friends the last few months, perhaps lost a few for reasons of superficiality (to Hell them & their selfish "friendships"), and I continue to grow both peronally and professionally. I'm relatively happy, despite my medical frustrations, and I hope all of you are as well!!!

There's nothing like a laugh or a funny e-mail or a fun post on a message board or getting a good video clip or a pic in email. It's like getting a nice greeting card in the mail. It really makes you smile. =] Send them to me and I will to you!

I've met a few really amazing people these last few months, and who knows what the future holds, but for now my focus is on getting well and also continuing my web work and expanding it.

Thanks to all my real friends, web contacts, web business partners, and casual chatters for sticking by me through all this. I know that some days I can be kind of moody, but nevertheless, I always keep the business bottom-line in mind. To my personal friends, I thank you most sincerely for standing by me and offering your emotional support, love, and patience. That's what friends are for. My family has more or less abandoned me, so my friends are now my family, and I don't say that lightly.

Cheers, and enjoy the last days of summer...

"Nothing I am
Nothing I dream
Nothing is new
Nothing I think or believe in or say
Nothing is true

It used to be so easy
I never even tried
Yeah, it used to be so easy...

But the last day of summer never felt so cold
The last day of summer never felt so old

Never felt so...

All that I have
All that I hold
All that is wrong
All that I feel for or trust in or love
All that is gone

It used to be so easy
I never even tried
Yeah, it used to be so easy...

But the last day of summer never felt so cold
The last day of summer never felt so old
The last day of summer never felt so cold
Never felt so..."
