  • The Week That Was

    Hmmm...I can't remember what I did on Christmas Day. I didn't finish installing the under cabinet lights like I had planned. My sister came by around 5:00 and dropped off my presents. She hung around while I opened th…

  • Two Firsts In One Week

    Wednesday was the first day in my life I've ever called in sick to work...in fact I didn't even miss a day of school because of illness from the fourth grade up through college. And tomorrow will be my 42nd Christmas…

  • Much, Much Better

    Shortly after my last entry (Thursday evening), I shuffled into my bedroom, got into bed and turned on the TV. I drifted off to sleep and woke up a little over an hour later feeling unusually perky and clear headed. …

  • Health (or lack thereof) Update

    I think I'm feeling a bit better today, but I also think this fever has me a bit loopy, so I may not be thinking straight. My sister now thinks I have bronchitis since it hurts so much when I cough. The only good ne…

  • Still Sick

    Well, I did wake up feeling not too bad, but that was after a rough night. Right before I went to bed, I started to get the chills and was shivering uncontrolably. That settled down after a while under the covers, b…

  • SICK

    I can't even remember the last time I've had so much as a cold...I'm sure it has been years. Well, I've got a cold now...started last night. So far I have about all the symptoms in moderation...tired, achy body, headac…

    A couple nights ago I came across a you_tube_video about a facebook.com group called "the truth about homosexuality". Apparently they quote all these ridiculous statistics comparing straight men to gay men. Statisti…

  • Well it seems as though I've been doing a good job making things more difficult than they need to be. First it was not figuring out how to open my garage door without the electric opener. It turned out all I needed …

  • I was greeted when I arrived home after work yesterday with the following notice hanging from my door knob: It was time for the power pole next to my house to be replaced--the one upon which sat that transformer and brea…

  • Restless

    I still haven't heard back from cute/nice guy in Portland. Even though I said I wasn't holding my breath, I'm still checking my e-mail often. I was also feeling restless all day at work...maybe related to this whole "o…

  • Alone Again

    My second round of company has departed. My friend from Portland moved from a mental hospital to a group home in Albany (about an hour north of here) last month and he came down to visit a few days ago. He is taking hi…

  • Tea Time

    I drank tea for the first time in my life this evening. It was a very odd sensation to drink something I've been smelling my whole life. I've had a fair amount to drink and eat since then, but my saliva still tastes…
