I spent the day today Getting Things Done. This is an important and necessary kind of day, especially after being reduced to virtually nothing productive for three days in a row. First up, the ENT who did my surgery. It’s amazing to think about it now, but this July will be the fourth year out from [...] Another root canal. One of the rather unfortunate side effects of having your head blasted with radiation, I’m afraid. By the time I’m finished, I’ll probably have an entire mouth full of root canals and crowns. The procedures are quite painful, and not because of the root canals themselves (although those are painful while they’re [...] On (yet another) visit to the dentist today – another root canal, yay – I saw these signs: From a church: “If I’m ok and your ok then why did Jesus die on the cross?” Beyond what I see as the lack of logic behind the question, did you run out of apostrophes and misplace that other [...] I know, it’s been awhile. But the summer months are filled top to bottom with work, both on the ranch and at the company. A typical day begins at around 5:30. The dogs, all of whom sleep with me, start rustling around, and Newton – a creature of habit – has to go out. So, we [...] Last year’s corn experiment was derailed by various things, including either a dog or a deer crashing through the plot. We’ll be redoing that plot again this year, but decided to also try a little experiment. These frames were set and then seeded on April 20. The photo above is from May 4. So far, so [...] My cat is dying. She’s been dying for awhile, of course, just as we all are at our own varying speeds. Her time is simply coming to an end sooner than that same end is coming for the rest of us. For now, she occasionally gets outside to sun her old bones, but mostly she sleeps. She eats [...] OK, so it isn’t -4F here like it was at Lambeau Sunday night. It’s still cold to someone like me. I don’t like the cold and never have, which made our living in the northern reaches of the country interesting when I was younger. Then, it was just an annoyance because I’m a summer kind [...] That is a partial quote from this article. The full quote: “We know who gets head and neck cancer — people who smoke and drink a lot and tend to be at an older age. The problem is that it’s sometimes difficult to diagnose until it’s at its late stages and difficult to treat and cure,” [...] Once again, here we are at the end of one year and the beginning of another. Once again, it will be time for people to make a list of resolutions the cynic in me says they will never keep. Ironically, although I have never really been prone to making such lists, I had started one [...] “Where are yooooouuuuuu?” asks one of my loyal, even if slightly deranged, handful of readers. Well. I’ve been busy with work-related stuff, trying to get some things done for the end of the year. I’ve also been dealing with a couple of the absolutely, without a doubt, unquestionably dumbest, rudest people I have ever had the misfortune [...] |
