...and as I sit, 10 ft from the falling water (I love wireless in the country), dripping casually into my water feature (pond), .... the Koi gently rippling the surface in the dark as they grab at the food I've just tossed there...

...the smell of the cedar scraps burning in the firepit, gently wafting towards me...

...the moon hinting at it's desire to break the tops of the trees in the distance...

...as I sip at the remains of my 3rd glass of red wine...

I realize, that all of these other projects took priority for a reason... and that their completion will allow me the sanity, to one day bring the Mongoose back to life...

...and on that day, no matter how long it takes, you will rue the day, and you will buy the beers.

...just before you return to your urban nightmare, with your neighbours 4 feet away, on, each side, complaining that you've cooked too long on your BBQ, or have your stereo too loud... or that you've cut 3" of their lawn...

Life is good.
...and any DSM, is a good DSM, no matter whether it's running or not.
