Well I went for my follow up appointment today with the orthopedic surgeon.  I hate how it takes 2 hours for a 5 minute conversation.  Anyway, I guess the incisions are getting better.  He had the guy take out every second staple.  It hurts a whole bunch.  The skin on the outsides of your ankle is really sensitive and it sucked a whole bunch.  Next ( Read more... )

Well it's been a whole week since I ended up in the hospital.  My muscles are adjusting to the walker and the crutches.  It used to hurt to lift a glass of water even, but it's all good now.  I'm stuck to a bed pretty much 24 hours a day.  Sometimes I can move to the couch or a chair, but it hurts so bad to go from having my leg elevated to putting ( Read more... )

Well this week sucked so far.  I broke both my ankle bones on Saturday night.  Just got home from the hospital an hour or so ago so it's good to be home.  I met with the doctor today and he said the surgery went well and next week I'll get a hard cast on my foot.  Need the swelling to go down first.  So that's about the only news I got ( Read more... )

And the plow just came!  So I went to look out the front window to see how much it piled at the end of our driveway and I can't see outside.  Like not the exagerated version of that, but really, I can't see outside.  Kinda weird because the snow seems to be coming from the back of our house and not the front.

It's crazy out!  They let our training ( Read more... )

I had one day off this week and it was somewhat enjoyable.  We went to the Wal-Mart yesterday and got a few things.  A shop-vac among other things.  This is good because our vacuum cleaners keep breaking and so I hope this one will prove to stand up to the dog hair ( Read more... )

We ran out of oil last night.  It took the oil man 3 hours to bring more.  Then the furnace kicked in for about 5 minutes.  And died a fast death.  Luker and his friend and his friend's dad were trying to fix it.  I got home at 12:30am and there was still no heat.  We let the dogs sleep with us.  I had Luker on one side of me and two dogs on the ( Read more... )

Work is so blah lately!  I'm really tired of training classes.  The training manager came in my class the other night and took a look around and was like "What are you guys doing?" and I don't think she was too impressed with the fact that we weren't doing a damn thing.  This training roadmap that we have to follow is retarded because it leaves two ( Read more... )

I've been suuuper busy lately.  No time at all to do anything.  I just caught up on most of my e-mails.  Only 6 replies left to be sent... :/

I'm working 7am-3:30pm last week and for the next two weeks.  Today, my first day off, I got to sleep in!  I woke up at 5:50am instead of 5:30am.  Dah well.  I got to see the sunrise!  The sky was kinda cloudy ( Read more... )

So it was a rough morning.  Very hungover and not fun.  It kida went away about an hour ago though and I was finally able to keep water down and even some chicken noodle soup!  Mmm.  Much better ( Read more... )

So I got the job.  Start Monday!  Craziness.  I was at the bar when they called me.  Weee!!  And Ashley is coming too!!  We've been tech leads together for over a year so some familiarity is definitely welcomed.  I know the other two tech leads so that's good too.  And it's a pay raise!  I don't know how much of one, but anything is better than ( Read more... )
