Udie, my Friend!
Sorry for calling you a Friend, but it's what I feel about you.
I'll be 30 in 2 weeks. I fight the MD syndrome for years. Since college days.
The only cure for it that I had found is simple: WORK. Or I'd better call it "Duty".
Now I feel good only when I have urgent work, and have to work my bellybutton off to get what I want, and to satisfy my clients. Suddenly I discovered that I feel much better after spending a night at work then after drinking beer beside my old Soviet-times TV (hehe 24") at home.
Everyone needs something to distract his thoughts from his sour life. For me it was mountain-hiking. After we saved our group of 12-years old kids from freezing and drowning in the Caucasus wild mountain river - I find many problems only entertaining.
I want to invite you to Russia, to go fishing to some places you'll never get a chance to see
but it's August, ant winter begins there in two weeks...
Only thing I can offer you is to take a vacation in most dangerous places of Moscow, Leningrad and Samara
I hope it will help.
How about selling cheap Izhevsk motorbikes and airguns in the US?
Entertaining and bringing some money?!
