Fuck Today (Part 1)

Mexico has them OTC, too. I threw out my back during a scuba diving trip (Cozumel), and I was able to get some Robaxin from the pharmacy.

(Why anyone would want to abuse those horse pills, I have no idea. No euphoria as far as I can remember. My dog was on them for some time and she could smell how bad they taste. Of all the medications that we had to give her, those pills were the hardest to give, paws down.)

I allowed myself the selfishness of flouncing in self-anger today, but you know what? First off, my flouncing is excellent. The second is every day I get less angry and less ‘fuck you’.

It’s really nice to know that this is a bad day, because I chose it. I’ll overshare on the reg. forum why this week ahead of me is gonna rule.

Hope you didn’t do too bad in your exams, don’t know much about the subject but did work for VG analytical Ltd for a while.

I can imagine the subject is very complex but you should take a look at what goes into the machines they make, a lot of precision engineering!

Apparently, an aunt who has had breast cancer has taken a turn for the worse this weekend. Waiting to hear how bad off things are.

Awesome. I had a lot of angry fuck you a couple years ago. It took a lot of work to get it from a traumatic burden to a useful tool I have in my toolkit and take out only when needed, and then put away afterwards. No fun at all when your angry fuck you hammer is superglued to your dominant hand.

Your family has been especially hard hit recently. Are you OK?

I know! Since 2010, 6 cases of cancer on both sides (or is that 7?)… with half being in remission.

We thought my aunt was okay, but last year, she went in for an unrelated procedure and they found breast cancer cells in her stomach lining. She’d been taking medication to keep them from spreading, but the last time we chatted, a month ago, I guess, she said that they had changed medications because they’d shown some growth.

I’m okay. Angry, mostly. Really kind of angry. And sad. Linda is an awesome woman and I’d hate to lose her so soon.

Arimidex? Tamoxifen? Exemestane?

I’m so sorry. It’s more than any one family should have to endure.

The second one sound familiar… she’s way up north, so I wasn’t much involved in the day to day… just what she told me.

Wife’s iPhone screen has a vertical line on the left side, so she can’t accept calls. Or much else.

And eldest son spent an hour and a half atop a playground slide at school.

Got pooped on by a bird on my way in to my office this morning. Got home this afternoon to discover that our dog had pooped rather seriously on the Persian rug. I discovered it by stepping in it barefoot.

Yes, this is the same dog that two vets told us several months ago had only a few days left to live. Today she was really pushing her luck. BTW, I think those vets are now working for the Trump campaign diagnosing Hillary Clinton.

Spent 3 hours on my phone with Verizon customer-service last night.
Kudos to them, the delay was not their fault - they were quite helpful.
The trouble was my wife had not backup up the gazillions of kids photos on the phone and didn’t know here AppleId passwords. Although she copied out the phone contacts by hand (!!!) and I could copy the photos to my computer, we couldn’t do a total phone reset with the d**n ID.

Eventually, we got it done… and yep! It’s a hardware defect, they will replace the phone for free.

So, that’s a success. And as my wife phrased it, it was worth $50/hour.
