Life in the fast lane.
Surely make you lose your mind.
Life in the fast lane.
Everything all the time.
Life in the fast lane.
(THE EAGLES)

Things have been sooo crazy since the first of July. This is such a busy time of year at work - everybody wants everything right now! Take a look a what I found searching the net. Very interesting...

  Scoring:
  24-32: Your fast ways are very likely compromising your health and well-being.
  16-23: You're a borderline speedaholic. You'd enjoy life more if you dialed back.
  0-15: Bravo! You're taking life at a moderate pace.

Hmm....I do believe I just scored a 22. What about you?
