The surgery happened at 8 this morning. As I write, Dave's propped up in bed, drifting in and out of consciousness. I have to wake him up to change his gauze every twenty minutes or so, and he's got the shakes really really bad. THey said he'll be more or less back to normal in a week aside from having a sore mouth and that if he wants to, he ( Read more... )

Sometimes the people on Maplestory make my world so very surreal. For those who play, you know the halloween event is out in full force right now. Basically, monsters have about an 0.2% chance of dropping a piece of candy, and if you collect 100, they can be exchanged for a halloween prize. Since the droprate is so astronomically BAD, candy in ( Read more... )

So we have a new visitor for the moment. Dave found him skulking around outside of our door today and being pitiful so he invited him in. He doesn't look much older than a kitten...he's still all gangly and hasn't grown into his paws and tail yet. He's all black except for a white bib on his chest, shorthaired, and brown-eyed. He's also ( Read more... )

Its rare anymore that I have vivid dreams that are pleasant. Usually they're all insufferably frightening or saddening. Last night I had a good one for a change. Oddly enough, I dreamt about my childhood back in Dearborn, MI. Namely I dreamt that I'd gone back to Howard Elementary School to see if any of my old teachers worked there anymore (I' ( Read more... )

Cops are finally gone. Our car DID take a shot, but it was through the trunk and it didn't hit anything vital. They had us unlock the trunk for them so they could poke around and try to find the bullet ( Read more... )

My sleep-addled brain explained to me as I laid there that cars usually do not rapidly backfire 12 times in a row, though ( Read more... )
