Hello Everyone,

This is my second official post, and, just to let you know, I have not done anything for my weight yet...but I will (wink wink) ----> This is the part where someone tells me to stop procrastinating and kicks me in the butt. Ha ha.

This is weight-related and non weight-related...

1. Is anyone here in the social work or mental health field (or any other really stressful/overworked & underpaid field)? I need some stress reduction techniques. When I come home from work, I just want to crash!

2. Has anyone seen the new show on FX called Rescue Me with Denis Leary? If not, it's a great show, but edgy. The humor is very down to earth, though.

Okay that's all I have to say for now. Good luck to all of you with work issues; trust me, I know how it is. Good luck to everyone and congratulations for your successes this week!

I'm curious to know what anyone thinks about Rescue Me on FX.

STEPHANIE :-)

Hey Stephanie:

Let's procrastinate together...but let's do it tomorrow.

1) I used to work in a maximum security prison which was also a home for the criminally insane....oh yeah, and it had a methadone clinic, AIDS clinic, and a homeless shelter as well. tress elieving techniques I didn't use really....I think it was more of a "mind over matter" thing with me. After I left I became a stand up comedian full time. ;) And I know that's probably no help. ;)


2) Rescue Me....YES I love It! I love Denis Leary anyway (gotta support the Boston Comedy Boys. ;) ).

Thanks for the tip! I am glad someone else out there knows how it is to work with that population. Definitely check out the show though, and I'll start on the relaxing!
