im in no way shape or form in ANY hurry to complete this.

as always theres the "anticipated completion",
but im not gonna hammer down, work a 16 hr day to get it done.

ive been there, ive done that, many times, and even wrecked one the day of the deadline.
im taking my own sweet time. itll get done when im satisfied with it ;Sweet
