Having a weird week...
Friday, February 24, 2006 at 12:09PM Went to bed Tuesday night so convinced I was heading to doc on Wednesday (had appointment and all) that I was counting the minutes to the Amoxycilin.
Then woke up Wednesday feeling decent, thus the big post output.
Got even better yesterday, which was lost mostly to house stuff and prepping my taxes and a concert in which my son performed.
Then back to feeling bad today. At first, I thought it was my accountant telling me I needed a lot more cash on 15 April (saw him today, son of a Packer player from the 1950s, no less). I am becoming more Republican each year my income goes up!
But over day I realized this virus is not over. Of course, my usual ear for infections starts to ache just as Friday afternoon comes around (amazing how that works--never appearing until the weekend).
But I remain optimistic. I have heard so much about this flu-ish virus that goes on for two weeks and ebbs and peaks and morphs and so on and so forth. Virtually all my network has had it already. Guess it's just my turn.
Last night during son's concert (Kev has the most beautiful voice), I get two very interesting speaking invites: first is to address 30 or so national military chiefs in Asia next fall in Malaysia (I am reminded of "Zoolander" every time I hear that country's name ...) and second is to address a mega-church in Texas (all four Sat-Sun services). Now there's an interesting pair of invites that I'm guessing not every grand strategist manages to attract!
I may be closer to my Joel Osteen moment than I realized ...
Ah well, at least such interesting asides divert my attention from the fact that I will owe the IRS a frightening amount of money between 15 April and 15 June. My Dad always said it was the killer time for the self-employed.
Neat thing is, of course, I'm trying to finance a new house in the same timeframe. Is that strategic planning or what?
Come to Jesus? Come to the Uncle Sam!

About time for the GOP!!!!
If we had a flat tax, you could put your taxes on a post card and be done with it.
