forgive me....

Please forgive me for not being around. I'm so tired....

Working 5 days a week, going to class 3 nights a week and I've been helping to teach a motorcycle safety instructor course on the weekends. Whew! Yep, I'm wiped out.

On a happy note, Thursday, Oct. 19th was my birthday. I took the day off and had a nice lunch with MY GIRLS, MY POSSE, MY PEEPS... We had lunch at Dot's Back Inn on the Northside. Dot's is a great little neighborhood eatery. They have the most awesome Reuben!

"garden of blisful finality"

"house of joyful termination"

"path of celestial cessation"

"den of divine conclusion"

Just a few suggestions if you open up your own flesh friction factory... feel free to borrow any you find useful... the key to any new business start up is marketing

Thanks for the suggestions.
You know, the "Flesh Friction Factory" sounds really cool. How about "Effleurage My Cares Away"? Or "I Knead You"?
