Busy?
"The busiest people I have known in my life always have time enough to do everything. Those who do nothing are always tired and pay no attention to the little amount of work they are required to do. They complain constantly that the day is too short. The truth is, they are afraid to fight a good fight."
Page 51 of Pilgrimage, by Paulo Coelho

Indeed Paulo is a magnificent writer. He points out so many valuable observations for us to quote and comment upon.

Okay this Paulo person sounds like a total nutcase, a threat to the lazy people cult. heheh :P Oh man! I'm so high on "everyday" right now. :| Falsay come down here yaar, i is the miss thou. :| But, apparently you don't as it was evident in your email to IT (which i read, yes). You is the only miss the furqi and the fc and the basmati. :| *sniff*
