There has been a lot of side line soap-opera stuff going on lately that's not involving me directly but I've been wanting to long and I haven't the strength or the time, or the heart to expose it to the innocent. Read on if you need to kill 10 minutes, otherwise go play solitaire or something ;)

I have found a new "love" in champagne. I was never a champagne drinker, but it has grown on me. It is not good for my blood sugar, but right now I am drunk and do not care. In other news, I finally got a picture of the "babies" taken. They are sweet and they love me. All is good in the world and who cares? Enjoy the picture, we are almost ( Read more... )

Nothing very exciting going on right now. We had to pick Gwen up at the X's house because of some kind of domestic problem or whatever. We also picked up the new dog at the airport Sunday. He's hard to figure out. I think we are going to have much more problems with him than the crested. He's goofy and clumsy but very lovable. I will have to take ( Read more... )

Since my last gas story was so well received I thought I’d share yet another interesting “gas” story. It was the summer of ‘93, I just graduated high school and was in basic training at Ft. Lennard Wood. Part of the genius super-soldier training included how to protect yourself from a chemical or biological attack. This section of training involved ( Read more... )

Here at work today the O.R. was having "gas problems", low vacuum problems to be more specific. Well after changing out a couple of hoses and tightening everything down, they have all the gas they could ever need. This whole event reminded me of my friend John and his wife Meak Young. They met in Korea when John was stationed over there (as was I, ( Read more... )

Well after much pain and suffering, not to mention a serious hit to the Visa card, I am signed up for some classes for the fall. I'm not taking the classes I planned on taking, but the good news is my class load is reduced to only 2 nights a week instead of 4 ( Read more... )

It's amazing how many people just can't come out and say "oops, I fucked up" and then try to fix it. Instead they'd much rather live in a delusional world so they never have to accept the consequences of their own actions. I could go into detail but it would take too long (and get me pissed off again). The irony to the whole situation is that I ( Read more... )

So for the past few months I've been planning to take the therapeutic massage program at Spartanburg Tech. Well, obviously I didn't plan good enough. I missed preregistration due to vacationing down in New Orleans. So on the very 1st day of regular registration I 1st attempt to register online. Since I was in a different program I had to go in ( Read more... )

Nothing much happened over the weekend. We mostly just bummed around the house. I got called in on Sunday for a few hours to work on the ER's telemetry. Since I couldn't come up with much of a topic today I thought I'd post a picture from back in June when we did a disaster drill. In the drill I was a victim of a massive ammonia explosion at one of ( Read more... )

My office line is just 1 number different than a doctor's office here in town. I get more calls for the doctor than I do for me. WTF?!?! People want to get an attitude with me over their doctor bill or their prescriptions. They even leave messages on my voice mail. A few actually try to argue with me that they dialed the right number or want me to ( Read more... )
