I don't think I have a fishing problem, but my wife does. Hopeless obsession, maybe, but it's not something I'd consider a "problem." In fact, it's provided me with too many ultimate adventures to be classified as anything but a SOLUTION to the daily armpit stink of life.

Work just plain blows…

…but fishin never does.  I figure hell, if I get fired, then they gotta foot a few months of unemployment.  And if that were to happen, I don’t know what I’d do with myself.

OK, I do.  I’d fish every day.  Beats the day-in-day-out nut twisting of suffocating under a mountain of work and missing deadlines promised by people who are qualified to … hold on, I’ll think of something they’re qualified to do eventually …

What makes this more of a scrotum punch is the few days of swingin streamers and drifting egg patterns under a bobber for lake-runs in western NY over Thanksgiving juxtaposed against an ever-sickening feeling I get 9 hours a day, Monday through Friday.  And now the three to seven people who might read this have the pleasure of helping me through the therapy of a bad, really bad addiction to chuckin flies.
