My religion is very simple. My religion is kindness.

I have been away.

As if someone has missed me, I have been away. Not really anywhere, but surgery has caused me to not sit at my computer for more than two minutes at a time. Finally feeling more like myself, I am up and about and the fingers are moving once again.

The one thing about surgery is it: makes you rely on someone else and it makes you relax. Neither I like to do. I am totally independent person and do not want anyone to take care of me. Well surgury dictates life for you awhile. Then because they fill you full of all sorts of incantations you are by default relaxing for maybe the first time in YEARS. That part doesn't feel all that bad.

Honestly, now that I have the down time, I am rethinking my whole career path and what I am doing with my life. I want to write. All the time. The only way I am going to do that is quit my current job. QUIT. People do it. They take that leap of faith in themselves and JUMP. I have some time to think about it and it has been on my mind.
