Glad to be feeling better than I was last week. For some reason I had this strange tightness in my chest. Of course my first reaction upon realizing this was "Holy S*&%! I'm dying!" (I can overreact sometimes), but the tightness didn't hurt, it just felt....tight. It wasn't a constant feeling, either. I would be fine in the morning and then it would just come and go for for the rest of the day and be just noticeable enough to be uncomfortable.

It's gone now, but I still don't know what it was. I looked up the symptoms online and it said it could be anything from stress to a bacterial infection. Whoopie. Whatever it was it's gone now, so maybe not having to go into work this week was better for me than I thought.

My test of invisible bungee cords was a success.

LOL @ 2:38
I have been listening to a LOT of Toto recently.

Any time I'm on 8-4 (last level in Super Mario Bros.), I pause and put on "Africa". Fantastic last-level song, for some reason.
you guys know that the backing band on Michael Jackson's Thriller was Toto, right?

I'm using this concept/terminology in everyday business transactions.

Brilliant use of a concept and wordage. I've got a lot of work when it comes to phrasing, but "would you prefer an invisible bungee cord or one you could see and hold" says a lot about tangible goods.

That said, I'm awful at analogies, so maybe that type of pitch would be terrible,
