July Hibernation

[El Gordo]

Yeah, you should hear my rockabilly bass riffs....

Perhaps I'm the messiah after all. I've always had a hankering suspicion...

Agree totally about acquisitiveness. I start to want things. Pining increases, reaches frenzy level. Total interweb absorption. I do it. It arrives. I'm thrilled for a short while, then very pleased for a bit. But within a day or two it's just another thing I own. I'm probably still glad I've got it. But the child-on-Christmas-morning magic has evaporated. On to the next thing...

In fact, this will make a good list. We haven't done one for a while. Top 3 gadgets or shiney new things you'd like to own. I'll put it on a new thread though.

And yes, very interesting stuff again from MLCM. To be honest, I feel almost relieved. For too long he's seemed far too rational a guy to be called Midlife Crisis Man. At last, he's living up to his moniker. I suspect we've all been there to a greater or lesser degree. My recent significant birthday has caused a few internal ripples, I can tell you, but that's a subject for a different place.

I have only one word of advice cobber -- RUN!

Believe me, it's the only god you need. I'm out the door now to relearn that lesson yet again.
