Hot 'N On a Roll

When you're hot and on a roll
  You think you're in control

Suddenly ice-cold...
  What happened to your grip

Seems it was illusory ~
  You were never Captain of your ship

Funny, from the title I thought this would be about a hot dog :) Still a fun read though!

I live the illusion of being captain of my ship. The only problem is I married the damn admiral.

Sounds like you've tried your hand at water-skiing, gw. That's how I felt. It's been a few years ago now, though.

Actually, I tried my feet at water-skiing a few times, back in the day. Wasn't quite ready to ski on my hands at that point, Milt. ~ Aqua, the Clown
