so, put another log on the fire…
as if there wasn’t enough to do in a day, I have to go out and find more..

hey, here’s an idea, let’s take all of our scientists and physicists and whoelse and whatnot and put them all to work on a way to make the day longer, a way to stretch the commonly respected boundaries of time and space to allow for me to have anywhere between a 36 and 48 hour day, everyday. 7 days a week.

You might say, “Gee, shaun, but doin’ speed will get you the same result…”

not my thing.

Work is progressing, which is good.

Work is being offered, das ist good, too.

Problem, nothing gets completed.

It’s almost to the point where I can’t complete anything, and the progress becomes miniscule. Y’know, similar to attempting to fill in the grand canyon by yourself using only peanuts. This is the rate of progress on my work as I have been perceiving it. It’s extremely frustrating, and yet I keep getting great offers to collaborate on unbelievable projects, I dare not say no, yet I’m spread so thin already, that I can’t offer a whole lot to begin with… it isn’t going to get easier, is it? Probably not.

Do I give up? Most certainly not!
