I tend to hold my shift key and not use caps lock even when I’m typing many capital letters in a row.

I guess I’m not the only one.
21 days
T-minus three weeks until the surgery. After posting my situation here (and on Facebook, and emailing people I know who have gone through this, and even talking to people in real life) I realized I should go to the place with the most people in-the-know: jpouch.org (duh!).
I posted my situation to the message board and received feedback from multiple people who had gone through a combined...

One month’s worth of fun with Daytum—I just wish I had some better beers on that list.
Safari 4.0 Beta: RE-INSTALLED
Only this time I followed Tyler’s tip and 3.0-ized the program.
Safari 4.0 Beta: UNINSTALLED!
It didn’t even last 24 hours.

Sooooo much awkwardness when using this browser!
Why are the tabs all the way up there? Why do you insist I don’t need a status bar by default? Do I really need photos of all my “top sites” when opening new tabs? Wow, this is going to take some getting used to.
ANASLEX =! ANALSEX →
I saw a license plate on a Lexus today that said “ANASLEX” and seriously contemplated how Ana was able to get “ANALSEX” just long enough to feel like an idiot before re-reading it.

Lonely Saturday Night
I’ve come to find myself at home on a Saturday night. And I’m drunk.
For some reason it doesn’t make me feel any better that I’ve only been alone since the last guy left at 10:30pm. Oh and we started drinking at 1:30pm.

This month sucked for paying off debt. Between having to pay $210 to the IRS, a $341 car repair (which was mostly parts cost… I like that better than $300 in labor and $41 in parts), $40 for auto tax (which was $80 but my parents were nice and paid half), I lost almost $600 which could’ve been additional debt paid off.
Oh well, this only means March will be that much better. Mmm…...
What Would You Do?
I called my surgeon’s assistant nurse today and talked her into giving me a tentative date for my third surgery (June 25th). While talking about reasons this last one may need to be pushed back, she asked if the surgeon had brought up the possibility of combining the second and third stages.
At my one-month post-op appointment in the fall the surgeon did bring up the possibility of having...

"How Inflammatory Disease Causes Fatigue" →
“Chronic inflammatory diseases like rheumatoid arthritis, inflammatory bowel disease, psoriasis, and liver disease cause “sickness behaviors,” including fatigue, malaise, and loss of social interest.”
Yeah, no shit. They could have just called me and saved themselves a bunch of time and money.
DMB is playing Pittsburgh on my birthday. Last time I saw them on my b-day it was the first show of their 2000 summer tour. They played so many new songs for the first time that night.
Now I just have to decided what shows I want to see between Cleveland, Detroit, and two in Pittsburgh.
Clean Teeth for Cleaning

We share our bathrooms with the other tenant on this side of the building—a dentist’s office. At least three times a week I go to wash my hands and find toothpaste in the sink. I’m amazed by how many people brush their teeth prior to their appointment. I guess they feel they need to have clean teeth for their teeth cleaning.
I think dentists prefer that you brush your teeth...

Lifting + Running
The lifting routine I’ve been using is a general conditioning workout that has a “routine A” and “routine B.” This setup allowed me to regain post-surgery weight that was mostly muscle instead of just fat. Over the past four months I gained back about 25lbs and got my strength back to where I was during the height of working out this time last year. I’m...
Tuesday, Oh how I hate you!
bethneu:
The world hate’s Monday’s it’s true, but I think that just maybe Tuesday have it beat. There are no good television shows on and it’s the first official really working day. Everyone seems to ease into a Monday, but Tuesday is the nitty gritty. Thus someone invented wine for Tuesdays! Oh a glass of wine how I love you!
.
Tuesday is most definitely the worst day of the week.

Cold
neuski:
I knew the temperature outside would dip colder after our days of 60º-70º but 31º is much lower than I expected.

Knowing that it’s 31º in Nashville makes the 27º that it is here in Cleveland seem just a little bit warmer.
