Yeah..  I agree that it is pretty easy to lose sight of what life is 
really about sometimes.  It is very easy to find myself at work for 80 
hours a week some weeks.  Those are the times that life seems dismal... 
  Or at the least that the weeks are flying by blandly.  And then one 
good fishing/camping/hiking/SCUBA trip makes life worthwhile again.  I 
think it is very easy in this line of work to find yourself consumed 
every minute of the day with computers.  Staring at a monitor 12+ hours 
a day tends to make the whole world look like poop and keeps you from 
enjoying life.

The only problem is that I will probably not be able to get away for a 
weekend for a month or more because of other things going on.  So here 
come the bland weeks.... :-)
