"Karoshi"

This is a term used in Japan to describe sudden death caused by stress from working too much, which is a prominent problem in Japan.

Frank was kind enough to send me the article that talks about this. I haven't been able to open it from my computer here, but I'm sure it applies to me and the outrageous hours I work with very little down time.

I do hope that someday not very long from now, I'll be able to lead a normal life again - meaning one job so that I can go home at 5 every day and just relax like most people.

In the meantime, send your thoughts that "karoshi" doesn't happen to me, as I still have a lot to do here on Earth.
