15 Pounds Per Square Inch

... that's the amount of pressure that an average pressure cooker needs to build up to cook food.

I've been feeling like my world is at 15psi for some time now. Vader seems to think that my team is still composed of 4 members and not 2, so he's doubled the work load he usually assigns to us... and at a crucial time too, nearing surveillance audit for our company. Just barely a month to go before that and there's still so much to do, lots and lots of documentation to catch up on, and an Internal Audit that also has to be done and resolved. Meeeeeep. I need another vacation. Another trip to the beach, perhaps? Heeheeeee. :)

On top of all that, there are other personal issues that I need to resolve. It's not that I've been procrastinating on all this, but they all just pile up at the same time, without any warning, and wham! You are overwhelmed, you want to crawl into a little crevice and hide for years. But no, hiding never solves anything. Besides, those that you are hiding from usually have that knack of finding you when you don't want them to. That's just the way life seems to want to go.

There we go with that sentence again. Rain asked why I have taken that view these days. Well I've done all I can and everything still seems to defy me. Controlling things just makes them worse. So why not just be a Jedi about it and let the Force flow, do what you can, but do not Force the issue? It's the only thing that seems to work for me these days, so there.

The Tolkien folks are planning a climb. Sounds interesting. I just don't know why I'd rather go to the beach than climb a mountain....
