Frustrated to Death

I wake at 5:00 am. How tidy of me. Willi woke me up jumping off the bed. Help. Now I’ve been at my computer responding to emails since then. I’ve noticed that after sitting at my computer for a while my head starts to feel sort of blurry and headachy. Do any of you know what I am talking about? It’s not exactly a headache, but I feel it in my head…a kind of dizziness perhaps from staring at the screen.

Great…I’ve developed a computer allergy. This is perfect. “Man in his early forties succumbs to virulent and annoying computer allergy”

Actually, lately I’ve come to believe that on my tombstone it will read… THATMARK 1961-20__: FINALLY AND UTTERLY FRUSTRATED TO DEATH AFTER WHAT SEEMED LIKE AN ENDLESS SERIES OF STUPIDITIES.

Perhaps I am jaded. Perhaps my tombstone will read…JADED TO DEATH.

How grandiose of me to think that I will actually have such a thing as a tombstone.

Never mind. They shoot horses don’t they? For a minute I forgot how to spell the word “they”. How sad is that. I had better stop. Perhaps getting out of bed was my first mistake.

And so another day flops half-heartedly and tediously out of the frying pan with more than an ample supply of self-pity.

Yep, I know that fuzzy, headachy thing, too -- except I have it even when I HAVEN'T been at the computer! lol I am blonde, after all. *hehe* Don't worry, it's not you ... it's that pesky thing called "waaay to early to get up" which is at fault. ;)

By the way, since you don't have comments open for today's entry (Music Industry Statistics), I am going to respond to it here because I simply MUST --

AMEN, Brother!!!!!!! *standing ovation*

Whoa, you scared me with that last line. As for the weird computer head pain thing I know exactly what you mean! I get that from time to time when i've been writing to much for long lengths of time. It sucks because sometimes my body is ready to quit before i am! Mark, i hope you feel better soon and your tombstones are hilarious! Take care of yourself thatmark.
