Eye stuff

Saturday, April 30th, 2005

Well, saw the doctor Friday, I was too blinky so he put something in my eye to numb it, then pried back my eyelid. He said it was really red, but that he didn’t see anything so it was probably a little stye and prescribed antibiotic drops. I did try rinsing it out, but that didn’t work. It’s been getting better the whole week and I think it’s actually gone or almost gone now. Yay!

Pokey thing in eyeball

Thursday, April 28th, 2005

Still. Doc & eye-doc both say just in case you should get this taken care of right away…. but we don’t have any appointments available to see you. So I get to go in to the doc first thing tomorrow morning and sit and wait till they can squeeze me in.

In other news, I finally finished Lain! It was a very strange but interesting series.

Fun with names and stuff

Weekends are never long enough.

I was tired Thursday night, so dinner out got rescheduled to lunch out on Friday. We went to Original Pete’s in Elk Grove since that was the closest one and was also near my bank and Petco for food/litter supplies. It was as yummy as I recalled, and this one had an outdoor shaded patio with at fountain, so we enjoyed the lovely weather. There wasn’t anything interesting that we hadn’t seen at the nearby theater, so errands were finished and we headed home to just hang out, do chores and play WoW as normal. Princess SP had told me about Sea Lab 2020 or whatever it’s called, and since CS has it he played that for me to watch in the background. It was funny in that silly/crazy kind of way. :)

Saturday was fairly similar, more WoW mostly. Including another fun guild event.

Sunday was Princess SP’s birthday par-tay! Woohoo! So now she is caught up to me in age again. We had fun at the part and had yummy lamb shaped cake. And afterwards she & I played WoW together which is always fun, even if it kept me up to late. I would have been ok, but I’d been up late and woken up early the day before, so I fell into that “so tired I feel wobbly but can’t fall asleep” mode.

I’m still tired as I’ve had to fix more typos in this one post than all the others put together.

And I got something in my eye last night and still can’t get it out.

I did get some laundry done and got the sprinklers working properly again. It seems that the two sets can no longer work at the same time. *Shrug* So I have them set to every other day at different times now.

Addictions are bad

Thursday, April 21st, 2005

No matter how fun. So I’m forcing myself to actually leave the house and do something tonight by making CS take me to Original Pete’s for dinner. Then come the hard choices – pepperoni & avocado pizza or the avocado burger. Mmmm, both are so yummy!

Best IM conversation today

weekend… I’ll write more later.

Later:
Hmm… actually most of the weekend was spent playing WoW, and hanging out with CS when I could. Sunday I had a trip to Santa Rosa with dad in his brand new hybrid Toyota. Very nice car. Had some family stuff to deal with, so most of the day was spent on that and driving to and from. But today is the Princess SP’s birthday, yay!

Scum & Bad Parenting

Thursday, April 14th, 2005

My friend’s blog & my responses:

So when I was stationed on Attu Island in Alaska, we had this huge St. Bernard there named Coco.

One day before I arrived on Attu, Coco went for a hike with some of the guys from the station. One of them, an electronics tech just like myself no less, fell through a snow drift up to his armpits. Like any good St. Bernard, Coco was the first on scene, even before all these other Coast Guardsmen.

[private]

Now, you must understand that Attu Island is in fact uninhabited except for the small Coast Guard station, some birds, foxes and rats… and Coco. A St. Bernard who had spent all his life on this island, with none a’ da bitches (literally) to keep him company. So rather than pull this distressed Coast Guardsman out of the snow drift, or whip out a martini from a little barrel attached to his collar like St. Bernards from the cartoons…

…Coco raped the man’s head.[/private]

I kid you not. Coco humped this man’s head, and actually FINISHED before the other Coasties got there to pull him off. But they were there in time to witness. When the very next supply plane came, Coco rode it on its way back to Kodiak so he could be neutered. And, isolated as Attu may be, I heard about this story mere weeks after it had happened, because I had orders to go there already. In fact, I’m pretty sure the entire Coast Guard had heard the story by the time I did.

So when I see these stories about how Michael Jackson cried and pleaded with one kid’s mom so she’d let him sleep with her kid–and she DID–and when I see all this stuff about child molesting priests… the solution seems obvious to me.

Oh, and we need to beat that mom, too. It’s still Jacko who committed the worse crime, but wow. How could she feel the least bit pressured by a forty-year-old CLOWN (again, literally) crying that he wanted to go to bed with her 13-year-old boy?

My reply #1: There are some sick stupid people out there procreating who really shouldn’t be…. case in point, that mom.

My reply #2: Especially the last one posted yesterday:
Heard this on the radio on the way to work this morning (same show that other quote was from):
Headline: “Witness: Teen punched in face, forced to perform sex act” (article no longer available online, originally from Associated Press)

Sick. And I think I’ve finally been convinced that I will HAVE to homeschool my kid when I have one because there are too many horrible horrible parents out there who are failing to raise their kids properly. And the school system just can’t (and shouldn’t have to!) do it for them, or cope with it. Either they’re too lax or too strict, just no way for them to win. *Shudder*

Creeping into that time of year…

Where I become a snail – I move slowly and hide from the sun as much as possible. The heat starts with giving me a headache and it just gets worse from there. Being outside isn’t too bad yet, but in the car with the sun coming through the windows I’m needing the windows down or the ac on. I need to win the lottery so I can buy a whole neighborhood in Oregon or Washington and give the houses to friends and family to bribe them to move too. :) Well, I’d at least let them live there rent free… then they can’t sell the place and move away. Muahaha!

Grocery shopping last night with CS. Bleh. *Edit, “bleh” to shopping and being tired, not spending time with my lovie.* But then we rested at home and it was good. :)
