Making it thanks, depends too much on the weather though, and you know we've had downpours for weeks on end here.

I saw 2 days ago (before the rain started) that we were almost in the top 10 years EVER for Arkansas as for rainfall; and we still got 2 months to go

hopefully business will pick up here shortly; if nothing else, I need a new window, but i've been putting it off for a bit lol

a 3. Sometimes I'm optimistic, other times I can be in a bad mood and be pessimistic.

The glass is half full and I always try to find the good in every situation I'm put in and/or see in others. Life is too short to dwell on the little or even big things. Pointless really.

I'd say that I'm almost completely a pessimist. I guess I have very rare moments of optimism, but I tend to be far more pessimistic or realistic.

I swing between the two. Usually autumn makes me miserable as anything, but I've been getting up early recently, and things are coming together financially so I'm annoyingly chirpy much of the time.

I'm positively pessimistic. Here's a thought for the day: Everyone you know will die eventually, many of them probably before you. Isn't that fantastic? I wonder if people think about that on their wedding day. (No, I've never been married.) I'll go with 1.

Well the best thing about being a pessimist is I'm rarely disappointed and often pleasantly surprised.

I'd say I'm a little bit of both. I guess a 3.

I have those days where I'm down, days where I'm happy, and days where I'm in between.

I don't think I could handle being a pessimist. It would probably bring me down and kill me.

Your in Arkansas as well? We've been flooding pretty good here in Arkadelphia. Nothing seems to move when it rains this much.

Yeah, Arkadelphia catches all that junk coming off the hills around it. Then, factor in the Ouachita River. TONS of water!

I heard that in Camden the creeks are flowing backwards due to the Ouachita River overflowing. :shock:

Mostly optimistic, sometimes pessimistic.
