I Need A Doctor!

Not for this sore throat, fever & chills I’m having. For the first damned Christmas commercial I saw on tv a few minutes ago. SWMBO says they at least waited until after Halloween. I think they ought to wait until after Thanksgiving! Looks like I’ll be watching more DVD’s to get away from them damned Christmas commercials. I hate them with a passion.

As usual, not much else going on. It’s been raining off and on. Thinking of making cup cakes…

Did I Stu…Stu…Stutter?

A teacher is explaining biology to her 1st grade students. "Human beings are the only animals that stutter", she says.

A little girl raises her hand. "I had a kitty-cat who stuttered", she volunteered.

The teacher, knowing how precious some of these stories could become, asked the girl to describe the incident.

"Well", she began, "I was in the back yard with my kitty and the rottweiler that lives next door got a running start and before we knew it, he jumped over the fence into our yard!

"That must’ve been scary", said the teacher.

"It sure was", said the little girl. "My kitty raised his back, went ’Fffffff, Fffffff, Fffffff, Fffffff’…And before he could say "Fuck", the rottweiler ate him!"

Playing With Terragen Last Night.

I really like that program. My newest computer renders things pretty fast. My last computer took a couple of hours to render a 1280 x 1024 image. This one takes about 10 minutes. Cool!

Got a damned cold with a fuzzy scratchy throat. No, I have the fuzzy scratchy throat; not the damned cold.

Fixed My Digger Today….

Didn’t feel too well yesterday so the entire day was pretty wasted. Scratchy, fuzzy throat and just feeling Blah. At least I waited until SWMBO’s day in the office to feel bad!
Felt a lot better today. The headache I’ve been waking up with wasn’t as bad this morning. I think I’m going to try sleeping on my foam pad on the floor tonight and see how I feel in the morning. I’d sure hate to think that, after 30 years, I’m getting too damned old to sleep on my waterbed. SWMBO bought a new bed and we’re waiting for it to get here in the mail. (UPS?) Sure hope it solves the problem!
Finally got off my butt and drove out to Belfair and bought a hydraulic hose for my Digger. That $100 I made the other day: $85 for the hose. At least I’m still $15 to the good! Got back home and it took me all of 10 minutes to get it put on and working good. And it does. So I PM’d the Digger and made sure everything else I can get to is tight. All the fluids are up to par and I greased all the fittings I could find. Probably not bad for not having a manual!
