   Why so much traveling?   
   Reminds me of my last touring band. At one point I was deprived of sleep for   
   48 consecutive hours and that sure had me really trippin'...but it wasn't   
   fun.   
   Kind of sounds like what happened to you.

   Nothing like being denied sleep to really mess everything up.

   Does that mean you finally got some sleep?

   Of course ;)   
   After all the 'activity' out here, I was beginning to wonder why things   
   suddenly got so quiet.
