Oh, I'm ok. I have my share of problems but in general I'm pretty happy. I've found the key to my happiness is to keep from getting angry with people, that always causes more problems down the line. I just (to use a cliche) take it one day at a time, never planning too far ahead.
Hope you are doing ok too. The key is to consider the past lessons, to be applied to the future.
I remember that anger... glad you've worked on it. :)
But, I find it very noble that you were able to recognize it and work on it. Most people wouldn't dare take such a hard long look at themselves. So, congratulations.
I don't know if I'll ever totally conquer it. But at least now if I feel it welling up I don't go with it immediately, something in my mind says "hold back a second, think of something intelligent to say instead." All I can ask is that as I go down this road I get better at that.
I don't get angry over nothing, something is always at the root of it, extant in whoever I'm dealing with. I do remember getting angry at you, you might remember why if you think about it. And I would certainly handle it more calmly if a similar situation occurred now. But then, we all evolve, don't we?
I think I remember why, but my memories seem to be disappearing. I don't know if this is a good thing or a bad thing, but I do know I feel more dumb than usual. At the same time I feel more happy than usual because there are some good things going on in my life.
It was just some play that I as a newbie on the web hadn't experienced before. Now I'm wiser to this and do better. In any case it's ancient history now. My mother has Alzheimers, and it is hereditary. (My dad never developed it, even at 90). I find myself not remembering certain things, like what I had for lunch, it's weird, I can usually come up with it in 30 seconds or so. I like to tell myself that the brain can just hold so much. If one is good at analyzing things one might suffer as far as memory goes. Way back I had a Texas Instruments programmable calculator. You could partition memory between program space and memory space. To me the analogy with the brain is perfect. You excell at some things and you'll suffer in other areas.
The way I look at it, you more than made up for it by telling me that I'll never find a relationship unless I get out there and date, which I hadn't been. That eventually led to me getting married. So really, everything's fine. After 4 years I need to quit bringing it up. So, thanks again, and we'll move on.

What do you do with your balls?
Relaxation and exercise.
Er.....Uh.......
How do you exercise with them??????
The baoding balls are placed in the palm of my hand and rotated round and round, little chimes inside make pretty little tinging noises.
I need to get me a pair of those. Day needs brightening up.
There are lots of petty designs you can get. They say, though, that beginners should get the steel balls because they won't chip. Here is a set -

BTW, You doing OK?

I'm sorry that I hurt you. I know you've forgiven me, but I'm still sorry.
The way I look at it, you more than made up for it by telling me that I'll never find a relationship unless I get out there and date, which I hadn't been. That eventually led to me getting married.
