At around noon, you hit a rough patch. The water speeds up a little bit and things get a little bit bumpy. Nothing you can't handle of course, but still exhilarating. This is your first glimpse of the rapids further down the line. Deep breaths... We're still having fun. Still Can't wait. As the bumps and fast bits start getting closer toghether, it gets a little harder to think about your conversations, and you have to concentrate a little bit more on (as Yoda would've said before Mr. Lucas ruined his universe) where you are, and what you are doing... Deep breaths.
Before long, it's two(ish) in the afternoon. The cooler fell overboard a few minutes ago, you think you might've lost your glasses forever, and the only thought in your head is how little you want to smash your head open on the rocks jutting out of the water all around you...

Still one more month until I'm a stay-at-home dad, and a full-time freelancer... I sure hope I can keep from hitting my head on those rocks. Deep Breaths...
Until next time, take care and be good.
Your friend,
Jeffrey

The Hen's Teeth and I are all pulling for you! I think the brochure looks awesome!
[If I could, I would have you do a cartoon of us Hen's...it will have to wait until we get some more readership, but our day will come.]
I understand that the most important part of the Deep Breaths thing is the Exhale, so do a lot of that!
You're going to do great, buddy! I'm so proud of you and soak up lots of inspiration from your bravery! I may be doing the same things very soon!
