Home sick today. Yesterday I had a 2:15 appointment to see Dr. Liver. It would have been my first visit with him post-transplant. While driving to his office, I developed a headache. It was minor at first, but it kept growing. I arrived at his office, waited in line at check-in, and was greeted with…

Remember the little problem I had with Littman/Barclay jewelers back around the end of last month? Remember when I ended up eating my words a day or two later, when they made good the FUBAR they’d created? If not, a short synopsis is in order. Last December: I purchased some jewelry at Littman’s as Christmas…

Gads I’m tired. I was up until one this morning, cleaning and laundering and straightening up for Sunday’s guest. And yes, The Socialist helped. He did all the vacuuming, and a fair bit of the tidying. He also gave me the last piece of his Sara Lee chocolate cake (with chocolate icing). It would have…

I meant to work this into today’s entry somehow. I ran across a marvelous quotation this morning. A Truth that’s told with bad intent Beats all the Lies you can invent. -William Blake I just wanted to note it so I’d remember.

I knew things were moving along a little too well. Yuppers, folks. Just when you thought it was safe to go back into the walled, paved ex-garden, the floor falls out from beneath you … literally, in this case. Last night we had rain. It probably amounted to about an eighth of an inch of…

It really does look like I’ve got a new home lined up for Vogie. I’m hoping that later this evening I can spend some last quality time with her (not that she’ll appreciate it). The person who will be taking her sounds like they’ve put a lot of time into researching how to take care…

I’m probably going to be the only one who thinks this is hilarious, but I have to note this. Go to Alta Vista. Do a search for “Terrorist Sympathizer” images. The first image that comes up is my picture of the candleholder that the little grey spazzoid broke some months ago. Gads, I’m laughing so…

Fooey. I made the mistake I’ve told so many others not to do. I typed my entry directly into the entry box, instead of first typing it in Word and then copy/pasting it into DearDiary. I suspect you have already guessed the result of that ill-begotten attempt to update my diary. The site went down,…

I reacquainted myself with migraines yesterday. Why is it that pleasant experiences in life are fleeting, while misery doesn’t seem to need a forwarding address to know where you’ve moved to? I had full-blown migraines as a kid. The doctor said I’d probably grow out of them. I did. I’m assuming I’m entering my second…

Don’t it always seem to go…
