Good strategy. But where do I get a new long term Mayan calender? A pocket sized one would be fine .

what's that sound? so loud! a heavy rumbling! the whole house is shaking!!!....

oh no, i think the end is really coming!!!!!!!!!...

...........

... nope, just a herd of elk running by. wow, a few hundred of them running a couple hundred feet from my desk can sure make a lot of noise.


(no kidding, this happened just monents ago)

There are plenty of homeless shelters that could do with a hand.

"On another note, any suggestions for cabin fever?"
Joey, if you can find some of the lightbulbs which produce light similar to day light, I think the manufacturers refer to it as "Bright White" versus "Cool White", it may help in your lamps.

art supply stores and health food shops sell bulbs that are full spectrum.sort of spendy but well worth it.i used one on the light above the comfy chair at my cabin where i spent many a long winters evening and i thought those bulbs cast a "real" light and made book pages and the other things around stand out much better.

Thanks for the advice JPickett and Canoedog; but I'm fine. Maybe I should have explained the '> ...cabin fever' bit was a quote from Greenghost.
Isn't cabin fever just sick of being indoors? Can't one simply go out?

Yup...stuck in the cabin..no place to go.this time of year "up north" the little bars in the tiny villages will be full of people going to the only place in driving distance.some ditch the car on the way home wearing nothing more than the "bar jacket" they pulled on when they left the house...
