If it is, I do not want to be right. Because, DAMN! it sure does taste good.
General
For use when I really don’t have time to figure out to what category the post should belong.
NOT Getting Work Done
Well, that did not go as planned. Seems I have a strange shaped throat. As a result, my surgeon was not able to intubate me properly. So, after a half hour of trying various ways to get a seal, they gave up. This was suppose to be outpatient surgery. Instead, I am going to have to have the surgery in a hospital. Supposedly they have better means at intubating. I suspect that means I will be staying overnight. I can only imagine the worse possible outcomes at this time.
Seriously, it hurt so bad just to breath after they tried to intubate me yesterday. I cannot imagine all that they might have to do to keep my blood properly oxygenated. I figure I will have both a major headache for days after the surgery, as well as one mean sore throat.
So, here I am today, with a sore throat, still wiped from the anesthesia, and I am wondering how I am going to rearrange my schedule at work.
Getting Work Done
I’m off to Woodbury, MN to get my sinuses and nose roto-routered. I have two deviated septums, a few polyps, and all sorts of nasty, left over infection crap that all needs to be scraped out. It means being off of work for 6 days. It also means being at my parents after the surgery until the anesthetics clear. Of course, then there is the probability of being in so much discomfort as to not being able to drive home even after that. In the end, I will be out of commission for at least 24 hours, possibly longer.
Now, to take the garbage out and see if my car will start in this -11 temperature.
I Have A Secret To Tell
I have begun the second draft of my novel. I realized it was just not possible for me to dictate my rough draft into text files. The agony of reading my pathetic, horrible writing was killing me in a slow, agonizing death of a thousand cuts.
Yes, I know. It is a bit dramatic is it not?
Anyway, I have replaced my morning journal writing with novel writing. Still on the first chapter, but I am not planning on any timeline at the moment. I will finish it when I finish it.
However, I am in need of readers. People that understand they are not to tell me where my story is to go, but instead can tell me if they are understanding where my story is going. If you think you understand what I am saying, explain so in the comments of this blog.
Yes, I am posting this on Facebook, but if you really are interested, please leave your response on my blog.
New Home
So, I have moved. I am now living in the two bedroom apartment behind my favorite restaurant: Peggy Sue’s Cafe. From the outside it looks like one long building. Surprisingly, the apartment takes up more of the building than the restaurant. At least on the main floor. There is no basement or upstairs. The great thing is that my rent includes electric, heat, water, and garbage/recycling! Pictures to follow.
Because, You Know, It Is Funny!
It never gets old!
Equinox Cleaning!
Let see; I have one load of laundry washed, dried, and hung. I have another load in the washing machine just waiting for me to put it in the dryer. I vacuumed. I swept and mopped the bathroom and kitchen floors. I dusted off my TV, the stand, and the various electronic boxes on the stand. And to top it all off, I mowed the lawn! Damn, I kicked butt!
Oh, and I also set up an old set of computer speakers in the living room and connected my iPod to them so that I could rock out while cleaning!
Now? Time for a bike ride!
Update: I forgot – I also cleaned the refrigerator!

And This Is Why We Cannot Communicate
I did alright. You try and pronounce each word correctly as you read this out loud.
