i dont think a man should have to go thru this much anxiety... the wait for my new boat is killing me i think i have aged 10 fold over the past 5 weeks.... dad and i ordered a new ranger 188 vx with a 175 pro xs on it at the boat show from pittsburg marine and 2 weeks ago i turned my old boat into pittsburg so they could pay it off cause i knew our new boat was coming.... i feel like a kid layin in bed on christmas night waiting and not being able to sleep just waitin till day light..... well i this day light cant come soon enough.....the boat is done and is being shipped within the next few days..... i just got to get back out on that water.... i turned my old boat in so we didnt have to make this months payment and i was in the process of moving to a new location and now i am settled in and tryin to relax but its tough to relax when i look over in the corner of my living room and my fishin rods are setting idle in their rod holder with some jigs tied on my fnf rod still has the bobber and swivel but its in 2 pieces neatly placed... my gloomis rods are all freshly spooled and waiting in haste for the next time they get bent double with a big brown fish on them.... i am in my senior year of college and i am supposed to be doing a paper over some environmental justice stuff... but all i can see is the vivid pictures in my mind of bass big and small swimming around... i can no longer focus on the tasks at hand my mind is on the lake with a cool spring breeze working my jig in and around cover...or seeing my sammy or rico get blown up on by a monster bass..... i just dont know what i am goin to do till the time comes that i am back out on the lake.... and i know that its worth the lake and elnuts says it best as a smallaholic but i am a bassaholic and the only bassaholic anonymous meeting i can go to is one on dale, cland, or norris......
