I feel like Thomas Edison
How many times did Thomas Edison fail before there
was light
in that light bulb?
The story goes that it was on the 1000 attempt that the bulb lit up.
But the first 999 attempts were really not considered failures,
it was just that it didn't work doing it the other ways.

You just gotta love an attitude like
that.
For the past 4 weeks I have been working on getting
light into a
light bulb... so to speak. I have been so focused my head hurts.

Finally it was time for the test. I did my
best
I had everything in place just as I thought it should be.
With the agreement to myself that if it didn't work I would
let it go and simply MOVE ON...

I pushed all the buttons and went to bed.
I actually couldn't wait to get up in the morning to check on
my results. On the other hand... knowing that if the results
were not there I would be moving on.

Gotta laugh, other wise I may cry.
4 weeks worth of work and not a thing to show for it.

Am I pissed?
Am I upset?
Am I mad?

Naw.. none of the above.
Perhaps "disappointed" is the word.

I know I did my very best and my brilliant plan didn't
work out as I had envisioned it would.

So...
I deleted a WHOLE bunch of stuff and I have moved on.
Had I of NOT tried what I did I would have always wondered
if that particular plan would have worked.

Now I know, for me it didn't work. Not to say
another time
another place. But as for now I am going to work on
something else.

I am NOT quitting...not by any means. I am looking
at that
particular plan as one of those 999 ways that I was NOT able
to get light into the bulb I was working on. I am simply moving
onto #1000

I am going to take a couple of aspirin first.
I wonder how many aspirin Thomas Edison went through?
