    Is it a full moon this week?????

    Please tell me it's all the pt's that are crazy this week.

    If it's not them, it must be me and I can't afford the medications.

    Monday and Tuesday both started out whacky. Today's ok, so far. Next FM is this Friday. I'll be in central Illinois by then, visiting the in-laws, hoping for a pig roast, a bottle, and bonfire.

    Keep your head down, and remember Thompson's advice: When the going gets weird, the weird turn pro!

    I spoke too soon. Last client accused me of bait and switch...I had to let him go. One more to go- a CPF 550XD for a 18 month old in the client's own 2 month old Miraflex frame. What could go wrong?

    out of curiosity, what possible "bait and switch" were you accused of? I'm unable to imagine the reason.

    I can't go into details, except that it was either a misunderstanding or miscommunication, either partially or entirely my fault. But it became personal, and they wouldn't let go of it. Happens about once every five years.

    They got you too?! I hope you didn't suffer...

    I got out of town Friday and the moon was right on my tail- I took a fair size bird to the windshield (but thank god not a deer) and picked up a warning ticket for 'excessive speed'.
