Eye on style
I don’t need bifocals! In fact, my prescription stayed pretty much the same, so “Doctor Appointment Friday” was win-win! I had photographs of my retinas (retinae?) taken, which was extremely cool. I should have asked why they’re orange. Can’t find…
I'm okay, you're okay, Governor Corzine's okay! (long)
Apparently bellyaching works! I went to the audiologist yesterday with much trepidation and after being subjected to a cryptic series of beeps, she told me I was the same as last year. SAME AS LAST YEAR!!! I haven’t been this…
Hmm? What?
Permit me a moment or three to complain over what is most likely nothing. I’m off from work today – I’ve taken the day off to see a hearing doctor. (Hence the weird timestamp on this post. I fell asleep…
Progress report
(I’m sitting on the sofa working a crossword puzzle.) Charlie: (softly) Mow. Me: Oh! Hey there, Boo! (scritches his head) Charlie: (softly) Mow. Me: What’s up? Charlie: (softly) Mow? Me: (gets up, walks to kitchen) You have water. Charlie: Mow!…
Living in the O(+>* apartments

If I went to Hogwarts…
Let’s say I went to Hogwarts the same time as Harry Potter’s final year… One would have to be a complete idiot NOT to know that there’d be some final throwdown between the Lord of all Evil (who, incidentally, was…
Camp North Star this is not.
While traveling about at lunch today, I saw 2 schoolbuses full of happy t-shirted summer campers pull up to their destination. The counselors exited the buses first and were consulting their clipboards. Where were the happy campers visiting today? THE…
Drinking sticks and dirt.
Blech! Yick! Sticks! Dirt! So one of the ladies at work tells me her son’s losing weight in droves because of this Enviga drink. So I picked up a can of the Green Tea flavor at the local 7-11 which…
cruciverbalism
Lately, I’ve been spending far less time online. What have I been doing? Crossword puzzles. Lots and lots of crossword puzzles. I’ve always been into crosswords, mostly in the summer and the dead of winter. The summer of 2007, however,…
