Greetings all, been a while since I`ve posted but I wired myself on caffeine working overnight and now it`s tomorrow and I can`t sleep, so I thought I`d come share an update.

In mid-february-ish I had a broken tooth pulled and promptly disappeared from SuN. Since then a whole bunch of stuff went down that has kept me very busy:
  • For some reason I have been suddenly deluged with work
  • I accidentally stumbled upon a business partner/assistant type guy, which had previously been a major problem that I`d given up on. We`ve been putting together a variety of things to sell and should get underway with that next week
  • I`m now on the board of directors of an independent newspaper here. (I love publishing.)
  • I turned 40
  • Taxes, 2 years` worth... I blew it off last year `cuz I made hardly any money the year before when I was in school. What a nightmare. Never blow off your taxes.
  • significant-other BS, losing my patience with that immature jerk guy.
  • I modified my "project 2" business plan to launch smaller since I couldn`t find any help, and did actually launch the stripped-down, re-re-redesigned version just a couple days ago. Not what I`d been planning but I got frustrated with waiting until I had every last piece in place with no help. At the rate it was going it would never have launched and I would have missed the opportunity.
It`s been like a 6-week long finals week. I feel like a disorganized chicken running around with my head cut off, but everything`s getting done so far. So that`s it I guess. I should try to nap before tomorrow starts for real.

Well.... Sounds like you`ve been through the wringer!  Finding the right someone who can be a key individual in your business can be difficult.  So cool that you found him "accidentally".  Glad to hear you`re moving ahead even though not as planned.  As long are things are getting done, keep moving forward!
