I'm too lazy to start a new blog
It looks like this hip thing might turn out to be kind of an adventure, so I'm going to try to post a little of it for posterity. Or my posterior. *rim shot ( Read more... ) -
Whining, as per my new normal.

My hip has continued to cause pain, but at least I have an appointment with a top-notch specialist in town, even if the appointment isn't until the end of October.

Ow. Waah, waah, waah....
Not sure what the issue is, but my hip has -- er, warning for mixing metaphors here -- reared (heh - pun alert, too!) its ugly head ( Read more... ) -
Fun & frustration
The fun: I got an iPod Touch (16G) yesterday. Wheee!
The frustration: I can connect to every wi-fi network in the world... except the one at home. Grrrr!
