I'd be far more apt to break them.<br /><br />Kim, thanks for the reassurance that I'm not a complete psycho... You're right of course, the sharpening thing has a predicable and controllable outcome that is within my grasp while everything else seems to be spinning out of it. Without friends like Kate with whom I've reconnected, Xavi, who follows the blog, and Chris, I would have lost it. They offered advice, a listening ear, and remarkable patience in the face of my single minded distress at times. True friends all.bodgermorghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00257209806830553197noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6782545669460791935.post-73041720309889624192010-11-28T16:36:53.090-08:002010-11-28T16:36:53.090-08:00The sharpening thing isn't that weird.

Sharpening or similar activities, give us an immediate sense of control over the environment we're in.<br /><br />Blethering with good friends is the best thing of all though :)Kim Ayreshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02656677501116622953noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6782545669460791935.post-30596844191831335572010-11-28T04:43:37.567-08:002010-11-28T04:43:37.567-08:00I always enjoyed Silviculture therapy -- go out to...I always enjoyed Silviculture therapy -- go out to the nearest batch of woods and knock over any standing dead trees by brute force, beat any deadfalls into pieces the same way. Have you heard Billy Idol's "Yellin' at the Christmas Tree"? It was inspired by him venting his frustrations with his manager at a Christmas tree that happened to be the same height. <br />If you feel like doing brute force stuff you could come over & help me fix some of the shit that needs doing here...Xavihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13616503027982622521noreply@blogger.com
