so…I got to bed an hour earlier last night, and I overslept by an hour this morning. For all the extra sleep, I feel like crap!
I’ve been fight a sinus headache for about a week, and I think without the normal fog that I’m in during the early morning hours the headache is taking every […]

so…
I installed the downstairs AC last night, with the drafted help from my neighbor Mark.
There was some cursing, swearing, and cussing, and some duct tape, but it’s in, and it works.
Now here’s hoping for a smoother installation of the one in our bedroom.

this really goes without saying, but I am ever the one to overstate […]

so…it’s so cold outside.
[insert your line here. Yes, you really need to say it. Out loud.]
It is so cold that the steam from my breath froze into a thin film of ice on the inside of my glasses and I had to stumble through a foggy, psychedelic haze for three blocks down Tremont.
Maybe walking from […]

so…the building that I used to work at did not allow you to use the stairs. The doors to the stairwells were locked from the inside — once you got into the stairwell you had to go to the lobby or stand there and knock, hoping that someone would hear you.
I used to blame my […]

so…I’ve been having these odd, semi-conscious dreams over the last couple of months. It started out with this recurring dream where I was holding Sammy, feeding him, while sitting up in bed. At some point I put him down and he got lost in the comforter. At this point I would actually sit up in […]

so…I cleaned up the basement on Saturday and dusted off the weight bench and actually worked out!
It’s been about 6 months and, damn!, I’m in a lot of pain! I’m in that can’t-put-my-shirt-on, can’t-lift-my-coffee-to-my-mouth pain.
so…does anyone want action on when I’m going to get sick?

don’t you hate when a non-coated tablet of some drug or another gets stuck to the roof of your mouth, then the back of your tongue, and then every 8 centimeters down your throat?

so…I shaved my head the other night, as I’m known to do from time to time (if you ask Erika she’d say not often enough). It’s a fairly straight forward process that I’ve been doing for about 13 years, but as with all routines, there is the possibility of a missed hair here of there…
well, […]

so…I got new glasses today. Nothing special, nothing fancy. They’ve got magnet clip-on sunglasses, which was the only reason why I got them.
My other pair of glasses work just fine — the new ones have a few adjustments in the center of focus, which is nice. The problem is that I over-wear my contacts, and […]

so…I woke up this morning with some pain in my left shoulder. I just wrote it off as sleeping on it weird, but as the day as worn on it’s becoming more and more difficult to lift my arm. I think it’s my rotator cuff…
…I’d like to chalk it up to all the 12-ounce curls […]
