Suffering in 2011 doesn't seem to me to be irrational in the least. If anything, it's a normal response to what we are going through.
Yes, I've been in therapy for 40 years. Two times institutionalized. @james3neal
@daniegge Life is so fragile - look around at this world, yes? I like what you say about non-linearity. But I don't feel I have much time.
I am at a point of deep identity questions. I am aging, I have no money, I am being told I'm not good at my job. How do I fix this?
If I can't rationalize something, make it logical, make it sensible, maybe even funny, then I go to the opposite extreme of emotional chaos.
What's happening is I'm in an emotional battle of my own self-worth. I have been given some feedback lately I just can't contextualize.
anyway, in light of the wonderful support my "friends" have apparently given me, I'm worse off that I was a week ago and I was doing better.
So tonight I was told that I ride on my "name", I am not productive, and I don't communicate enough. Is this true? Do I suck this much?
My mother always told me to go where I'm loved and to leave where I'm not. Wise advice. What do you think?

@patrickfinigan Thanks! You can't imagine how much pleasure I get out of saying the same things over and over. Really.
@BoltClock Daniel, I understand that pain. You know what? Start thinking about the next app, the better one. Success is the best revenge ;)

@williamsonj besides, I'M the one who brought it up. Blame me if it makes ya feel better :D
@williamsonj Oh stop worrying. I just like to tease. Kind of like a cat with a mouse.
@williamsonj I'm making this stuff up (not the adorableness). They have to be old enough to drink to work the show, I think.
So yeah, no. Not gonna happen, sorry, @willimansonj. I think there will be plenty of photos for you to ogle around the networks. :D
@williamsonj Yeah, headlines will read "Standards advocate and found of the Grey Beard Guild found guilty of taking pics of underaged kids"
@craigcook Does @Opera have a booth this year? Oh hell yeah. And a full crew of Opera-ites running around, too. Look for the big O.
