Sometimes you just have to sit back take a breath and get drunk
LOL...I'm joking
BUT on the serious side.....sit back....watch the tanks, and think about what you DO HAVE....

oh one step ahead of you ,on my 4th or 5th beer :eek:)
had a big accident earlier so i figure i deserve it.
funny the guy who wants to sue me just called and said he is out of patience even though he blew me off for 3 weeks.a job i stained the floors in his house.i have text messages from his wife saying they looked great and a week later he aint happy.she paid me and said thanks now this?F him let him sue me
but i am going on a cruise to the bahamas march 4th so i look foward to that.
it just seems sometimes its too much.
i am actually glad i volunteer at the fire dept. it is my only stress relief these days.
i try to think i have it good compared to some but its a struggle sometimes
well off to get another beer

Everclear always worked for me. Just stick a straw in a 5th and take a few pulls. Copenhagen is good too. When I was in pharm school and stressing constantly I would go out in the woods and shoot the .50. Always fun to blow a few trees down, especially when you imagine them as your instructors.

I'm a musician and that's a huge stress relief for me, whether playing or listening. There's no better way to relax for me than wine and cheese, some good music and zoning out in front of the fish tank.
Sucks about the mono! You're scaring me, I have had it for two weeks and already want to die!

How about doing a clog dance on the head of the douche that wants to sue you LOL!
Don't sweat the stuff you have no control over, like the lawsuit and move on to the next job.

I get me a good cigar, start a camp fire, turn on some mixture of willie, Johnny, Hank, Waylon, and Merle. And watch the fire burn out.

For me it is Simple I fire up the Computer put it Battlefield Vietnam WW@ expansion. Do the Philiphines Invasion as a US Defender. Guess what even on Expert Level the Japs never take the dang place from me. The can not figure out that a .50 BMG belt fed machine gun on the freaking invasion beach isgoing to mke mincemeat out of your troops not to mention the PT boats destroying your Invasion fleet.
