Second guessing...

I'm the type of guy who will think about something all day, go to bed smiling that I had a plan figured out, then wake up and start a new plan. I am always second guessing myself, and in my opinion an obvious character flaw.

I remember in college, I had a twenty six page research paper due, with dozens of documented references required, etc. The morning it was due, I had it all hand typed out (no PC's or word processors allowed back in that day) and on the way to school, I tore it up. I told my professor what I had done and I was going to start from scratch, accepting the one full letter grade that would be docked for each day it was late.

The next morning, I did turn in my paper and I received a C+, meaning it was a B+ paper, not bad for completing a six week project in one day. In retrospect, I am sure I would have received a better grade on my original paper, but I was more satisfied with the second writing. My professor consoled me by saying what I had done was a sign of a genius. I lost quite a bit of respect for that professor that day, comparing my actions to something a genius might do.

What I am now second guessing myself about on my colony is my plan to change each and every gourd to a SREH Conley II entry. I always have been stubborn about having a few round holes available for subbies (sub-adult martins) when they arrive. So I have decided to offer an additional 12 gourds on top of the 221 I had originally had planned. These will be on a telescoping pole on the outskirts of my colony, and will be twelve round hole gourds.

That is unless I second guess myself yet again.
