Made it to Friday, once again

W00t! It’s Friday. I have survived another week of corporate America. Of course I have found out that the leadership of my department has changed, yet again. Whatever. Go with the flow, save up the cash, open up the d’ang bakery. Wash, rinse, repeat. In other news I have two...

The weekend is here!

This has been a good week for me.  Work has sucked, as it seems to do more and more with each passing week, but that’s life.  Beginning Monday morning I got my sorry ass out of bed at 4:26a.m. and went to the gym.  I did this every day of...

So I’m not a brain surgeon

Last night’s dinner was simple: ham and cheese grinders with lettuce and tomato. Can’t screw that up, right? Wrong. So I gather the hoagie rolls, the ham and the cheeses, the miracle whip and the mustards, wash the lettuce and tomato and set them to dry. First order of business:...

Getting better

I woke up at about 5:00 this morning with a raging migraine.  I walked around gathering up the appropriate pills, Imitrex to stop the migraine from progressing, Darvocet to numb the pain, took them and went back to bed.  When I woke up again at 7:00 I felt better, but...

Sick again, d’ang it

Yup, I’m sick again.  Last week I felt like a complete slug, although I know myself well enough to understand that feeling sometimes comes with cold and dreary weather so I thought nothing of it.  This week is another story.  Monday afternoon I was on a call at work and...
