It never goes away...

Had 4 days off, so tried to be normal. Been falling asleep on the couch around 5-6pm and waking up around 9, going back to bed at midnight and getting up for the day around 3-4.

Woke up from a very vivid dream I'd taken a contract job in San Diego for the winter.

Wish I could. Winters in the southwest, summers in the Midwest.

Especially over the last six weeks, I'm all in on the idea.

Well... I could finally get Danm catching some fish.

We're getting hammered with some much, much, much needed rain. We did NOT need it all at once. Especially after the last summer of wild fires.

I believe this runs down to a large wash that runs behind the Banning Jail.

Last day at work....

My replacement has sent an email to the client complaining about the project he's on this morning... It is a nonspecific complaint that it isn't what he was told it would be by our contracting company head.

He is also not on site today.

I have no f-king clue if he is planning on being in on Mon, or if that email was his "I'm not coming back" email.

He literally had the gall to tell our client "I hope this isn't how Xxxx treats all it's contractors and employees".... Because he hasn't had a meeting with her in a week. .... When she's on vacation.....

Goddammit. Not what I need on my last day

Your warfarin resistance is probably because your wife was giving it to you long before you needed it as a blood thinner. She's just confused as to why it hasn't killed you yet.


Chit, I asked her this. She said she is not that subtle. She then said if she was trying to kill me she would just run me over and tell the police that I tripped over my cane and fell in front of the moving car. She also said that my neurologist would verify that my balance is not for crap thus validating her story. Blink

For some strange reason, I get the feeling she might have been thinking this out for a while because, that just made to much sense.Huh

Are baby backs and loin backs the same thing? I've been using spare ribs exclusively, but these things had a ton of meat on them... And Costco was having a sale...

Just got back from a trip to the Chicago Auto Show with the wife. Crowds weren't too bad, but ran into several people I knew.

Stopped at Connies for pizza on the way out, ran into another buddy I only see once a year.

Strange day.

The new GM HD pickups are ugly, and every vehicle out there is too damn expensive. Seems 50k is the new 20k.

Yeah, probly.

The ribs higher up towards the loin are the baby back ribs. The spare ribs are lower down the sides.

Biopsy on suspicious lesion, high up on my chest......no biggie....2 stitches.....too many hours in the sun in my time.
He froze a few precancerous bits as well.
Didn't hurt at all when he did the biopsy.

Couple hours later carrying the baby around, and WHAM!....she gives me a stiff arm, with the palm of her hand, right smack on the biopsy site.
Gol darn it that hurt......wife looked at it, says it looks likes it needs another stitch or two now.
Bandaid will have to do...

Butterfly bandages, steri strips (not sure if they're OTC or not) or superglue/dermabond

I'll do my own sutures when necessary, but can typically get by with the above.

Mashed my thumb pretty good with a hammer yesterday. Popped it like a grape, splattered blood along the drywall I was removing. The split at the tip took a while to stop bleeding. I intended to throw a suture in once I got home, but electrical tape and a bit of gauze held it together well enough that I'm just sticking with that until it heals.

Dunno how else you expect to remove a screw that's been screwed if not to unscrew it.

Suppose you could drive it All the way through and out the other side but would say unscrewing is the way to go

Worked once with a guy who shot a nail through his foot if that helps all. Misery and company and whatnot. Worst part for me was when they squeezed antibiotic ointment in the top of his foot and it squirted out the bottom
