Friends?? I've become an obsessed freak! All I do is read SI every night.

I'm obsessed with how much I'm 'losing' by not trading more capital,
and knowing more during this historic frenzy.

My day job is really interfereing with my trading, haha!
I'm one step away from calling in sick, so I can trade.

This is out of hand, I wish it would end.
I haven't gone to the gym in 2 months.

I don't go out drinking with my friends anymore.
I'm turing down dates since I'd rather try to figure out chart patterns than waste 4 hours w/ some vapid chick who rambles about her
insipid job, and how shes gonna be promoted, and how she just got
some new wintercoat. AGH! Doesn't she know people are making her salary every day? That date could costs me $1000's...

I may have to get myself a used straightjacket at Ebay...

i too am walking a thin line

my co-workers will not talk to me
my friends think i have lost it
my girlfriend says i have become intolerable
my family has called out a search party

i don't eat right, nor exercise anymore
my dress is amess
my personal hygiene at the bare min

i was up over 400% last year

but for my Waterloo, YHOO, it would have been 700%

i will not quit until i have exorcised this demon

the force is here to stay - YHOO must pay

yes, there have been signs...

headless chickens thrown into my cube
tires punctured
strange calls where the only sound is an evil hisssssss

they were so interested, so friendly in the Spring and Summer
but how they turned when the leaves fell

and yes,

i just heard the one next door whispering to another;
i took the second mortgage - i'm long AMZN

i will have to quit soon
=============================================================

Better Days
(words and music by Adrienne Hayes)

I've been wrong, wrong for so long
Living life like this, I just can't go on
Without a helping hand
I just can't seem to find my way
So I'll keep waiting, waiting for my better days.
Better Days

Now I said a prayer last night
when my day was through
that I could live my life
the way the Lord would want me to
'cause without a helping hand
I just can't seem to find my way
So I'll keep waiting, waiting for my better days.
Better Days

Tell me I have a home just as long as you have yours
Cause there's a pain in my heart
Oh that I've just got to cure
Please, please baby won't you take me in
There's been too many times I needed to find a true friend
Say you'll always, always tell the truth to me
Cause there's been too many times
that I've been lied to and deceived
and somehow I got lost, and now I can't find my way
Oh I guess I'll keep waiting, waiting for my better days
Better Days
