Just a Quick update.

First, Suzie-Q had a great review of the Kindle on her blog. I may consider getting one around the holidays if it’s in the cards at that time. Second, I haven’t had any odd reactions to the unnamed pharmaceutical I started taking last night (with much trepidation, I assure you.) I am opposed to most […]

Another Day….

Today I had my first full physical therapy session for my neck. They damn near killed me, but I think that’s good. Next session I have to talk to them because they didn’t do a number of things on the doctor’s prescription. But they did do a lot of exercises for me, though there was […]

Brief Medical Update + Other Stuff

First, I am having a stress test on Monday. That alone is stressing me out. The doctor also sent a prescription in to Walgreens (I watched it transmit) only they don’t have it. So now, I have to wait a day to start. My doctor’s office is closed Thursday so I am concerned that I […]

Brief Update on Health and Work

So, let’s see about today’s update. I feel I owe you one. First, I am scheduled to see the doctor again tomorrow about this heart thing. I am pretty sure I have an idea about it, and I have printed out a page from the web about it. My doctor will laugh because it came […]

Feeling Unwell :(

I am going to call my doctor before Thursday. That will be two weeks from the date of the cortisone shot. My messed-up heartbeat is not getting better at all. I don’t think it’s related to the cortisone shot, really. On the plus side, I don’t have shooting arm pain, shortness of breath, numbness: those […]

Good News and Bad News

I came home to a broken AC and my house is damned near 80 degrees and it’s been raining for hours. I hate to think how hot it was before that. While I have a service contract, I’m paying another company to come fix it since the company that has my contract is closed. I […]

Just when you thought it couldn’t get any worse….

…. It does. Just remember, you can be happy you don’t have my life :/ So today I went for my annual physical (for which I am two years behind schedule) during which they drew tons of blood, did an EKG, examined my prostate (my least favourite part), checked my weight, blood pressure, listened to […]

Fun on an Ugly Day

Woke up and went to breakfast (brunch) at Cheesecake Factory. It ended up being just me and Liz, but I had a most enjoyable time and that’s everyone else’s loss. I had French toast (okay) and bacon (yummy) and a glass of water — still no hot beverages for me 🙁 After which, we went […]

Tron The Sequel

Yeah, that’s right: Jeff Bridges returns to world of TRON, now in 3D! Tron: Legacy is coming in 2010. I am skeptical and excited at the same time. There are some pretty cool clips on YouTube so maybe it won’t suck. I saw the original in Manhattan on opening weekend and was shocked way back […]

Maybe God Hates Me

Been a rough year so far. So now, we can add to the pile. My main hard drive on my Mac suddenly stopped working. No idea why or anything. Disk Utility won’t verify it.I think it’s probably a complete loss, but am not sure. I do have a partial backup — but it was backing […]
