The light bulb above my head finally clicked on when talking to a buddy he suggested that in fact my biggest limiter was that I'm a mere mortal. Oh yeah. Duh. Moderation and patience are not my strong points.
Thanks for the tips and I'll try to remember to be patient before looking for problems when in fact there are none. Nice to know where to find so much good advice though. Next time I'll ask for help for problems that really do exist!
