Stress Relief

I'm not really that stressed. I switched jobs in September 2005 -- and that was my saving grace. As The Antidote so eloquently put it, "I have my wife back."

I realize that being low on stress is strange in this day and age. Especially since I live just outside of Washington, D.C.. Not being stressed makes me an absolute weirdo. (Yes, I know other things make me a weirdo too...but play along, please).

However, this idea absolutely intrigues me. What a GREAT idea! I've always wanted to go to a cocktail party, propose a toast to the host/hostess, take a gulp, then throw my glass into the fireplace. Why? Not because I have vandalous tendencies; it just sounds like fun. (No, I don't think vandalous is a word...but I like it anyway).

And this would be a be a whole lot better than deciding to relieve stress by shooting at the Hell's Angels (or any angels for that matter).

And smashing plates as a past time is surely safer than nude spider-hunting. Or self-castrating.

Just remember...no matter what your stress level...there is probably some poor sap out there who is worse off than you!

Happy Monday!

I'm just going to say a big fat "NO!" to garbage blowing into all of our lawns! Offending Target baggies on tree limbs included!

Yeah, anyway, what the f*ck's with these workaholics? Like are you that passionate about accounting, or data entry, or stocking the shelves at Wal-Mart? What's going on there?

Who the hell would get satisfaction from having their crown jewels surgically removed. I tell you, this world gets crazier every day.

I would think that Tyson story was an April Fools' joke, but it was posted on April 3. That guy always finds a new way to get publicity.

Maybe he should start a blog.

I would think that hurling plates at the Elvis impersonator would work better for stress relief.

I think we've all learned a valuble lesson here boredom=stupidity=stress! Self Castration?? Holy crap! Nothing like a do-it-yourself eunuch kit!
Bored people are stupid people...

I just got laid-off today. I'd say I'm pretty stressed out right now. Maybe I should do some nude spider hunting to take my mind off of things.

I just can't figure out why Mike Tyson gets so much bad press. He seems so cute and cuddly. Almost like the 13 year-old plate thrower.

Debbie: You got me. I never had a workaholic problem. An alcoholic problem maybe...

Ben: There is a place for everyone in this world. And a time for us to laugh at those people.

DA: I'd read it.

Fuzz: Or how about the person that's really bothering you? You can call them in there and hurl plates and glasses at them. Now that's stress relief.

Ally: "Bored people are stupid people." Truer words have not been spoken/written!

Phoenix: Are you serious? If so, I'm totally sorry to hear that man. But nude spider hunting JUST might do the trick?! Let us know if it works.

Bruce: That sentiment is probably shared by many!

Egan: Yes, like bears are cute and cuddly. Until they bite your ear off.

Siren: It would stress me out more to SEE it.
