Somewhat stable.
Well, the last post made it, lets see if this one does. I still see huge problems according to the tracker I use to see if LJ is up or not.
I forget if I mentioned that I checked out Biv's FB page, and saw her photo had changed. Looks like she's staying with family down South somewhere. Maybe even working in a bar. That would be good for her, and way better money I'm sure.
My bother was telling me about how there is some breeder who's breeding blind collies on purpose. And then breeding other dogs to this blind dog. Apparently the dog is spectacular looking, has all the points judges look for in a show dog. Except, oh, its BLIND! Mother of god, and a lot of these idiots are overlooking that fact, and now they are getting puppies that are of course blind too, and passing them on to unknowing people. I guess this started when the person bred two blue Merles together, which is a total no no. Yet there is this kind of 'keep it hushed up' so the collie club won't look bad idea. Excuse me? NO! Scream it out, black list the ass. Any time people do this kind of thing, you need to bring them out in the light of day and let everyone know what they are doing. To not do that is to protect them and allow them to continue doing that kind of thing.
I haven't posted anything on the Norway shooting, mostly because FB has been down for ever. But also I don't really have a huge amount to add to it. Although I was a bit stunned to hear that the maximum sentence for just about anything is 21 years in Norway. How weird is that? Although, if Wiki is to be believed, the sentence can be extended in five year increments indefinitely if the person is deemed likely to re-offend. I did find it strange to see such a good looking young man at the heart of this insane crime. Somehow you usually picture the person as looking like nut job, or at least mean looking. Take the Arizona shooter or even just the other day the Army AWAL guy from Fort Hood, or Amy Bishop. But then again, no one looks good in their mug shot, and I haven't seen one of the Norway shooter, just the handsome photo that looks like something you'd see on a Playbill by the actors name.
I had a trip to the doctor today. I've been falling apart more rapidly than I expected. Over 40 sucks. So this is the second trip back to do with my lower back, which in my mind is not really my back, but colon cancer or something. The doctor didn't think that it was, but to relieve my mind, she said to schedule one of 'those' appointments. I think that's what it's going to take to make me sure I don't have something wrong 'down there'. Although most of time I feel pretty good, but this has been going on since at least early May, and not to top it off, I've missed two periods, which means the 'cancer' has spread to my ovaries or uterus. Mind you this is all in my head, not proven by pain or anything else. She wasn't too concerned that I had missed to periods (no, I'm not pregnant, three tests prove that) but she didn't really say what I should expect. Yeah, I am young to stopping menstruating, but its my luck, considering I recently scored about 4 boxes of my favorite tampons, which for over a year now have been gone from the shelves. No, I don't usually talk about this stuff quite as in depth here, but since only two or three people even read this.. who gives a shit? Yeah, so it's Murphy's Law.
And if that were not enough, on Tuesday I woke up with a swollen eye. All day Monday I thought I had a stie or a bend eyelash ( you know how you get that feeling that something is itchy and sore on you eyelash line?) but then Tuesday there is this huge lump under my lid, in the corner of my eye. I couldn't see it, and it didn't affect my sight once I got up and was awake, but it was about the size of half a marble, or seemed it. I put in some of the old eye ointment that I still have from when Himself was a baby and used to get pinkeye a lot. Not sure if that helped it, or if it just went down on its own, but it's now about half the size of a half pea. The doctor thought it was on the lid, but I'm sure it's on the eyeball itself. It moves with my eye. But since it's shrinking rapidly, I'm not going to do anything about it. If it comes back, I will see the eye doctor. But again, I'm thinking the cancer has spread to my eye. Right up my spine, into the eyeball. Yeah, you can see how my brain works. I actually just googled lump on eye and there were a bunch of things about cysts on the eye. I'll go with that self diagnosis for a while. Sounds good to me.
And thanks to Mr. Knowitall, my foot it much better, at least during the day when I have my arches in. Hoping it recovers, although I do have some numbness in my toes now, which I think is due to the arches. Can't freaking win. 'sigh'.
While mowing today we came across a ton of turkey feathers. Not all in one place, but here there and everywhere. No blood, and no torn up feathers. I think the turkeys are just hanging out and molting or grooming, Cuz envisions mass murder of her baby turks. I saw turkey poo on the benches, so I know they were hanging around. Sadly, my cousin seems to envision the worst in many situations. She immediately jumps to a negative conclusion. I think it comes from working at the police station, and also from having to deal with the stress of having an autistic child who has had some major issues in the past. Either way.. It think there was no massacre. And even if there was, what are we going to do about it? On that note, I did see a young coyote the other night, in the road no less. He was so cute, but he was also so stupid.
I guess that's about it for now.
