Whining.

I'm sick and tired of whining.

Life may not be easy; but it's damned good from this vantage point.

So I returned to cigars after quitting cigarettes. Big deal.

So I now choose vodka ('n something) rather than Scotch.

Fuck the price of gas; I still have to get to work.

Fuck the moral cost of playing the market; I'm still making money.

It does disturb me, however, that there are people being thrown out of their homes because they chose (unwisely) a flexible-rate mortgage.

I have to spend some time in the hospital to fix my heart.

God, does that suck.

My financial advisor told me to look at successful business models from 1930-1931 and "hang in there."

We have another year of this crap to look at. Thanks, Bill Clinton and George.

I sure hope the hospital fixes my heart; 'cause I don't know anywhere else I can go right now to get my heart fixed.

 

UPDATE: May 6, 2010: Everything, I mean everything, has changed. I've been seriously impacted by the economy and there's just a tiny bit of light at the end of the tunnel right now.

My heart got fixed, a recent check-up says that to this day everything's doing really well (for a paunchy 50-year old).
