Still no voice today.  Maybe a bit more croak than yesterday but still can't talk.  When I try it makes me giggle.  Giggles with no audio.  It is like living my own silent movie, man.

The plan for today is to laze about on the couch, drink more hot tea with honey, play some Bejeweled, and pretty much ignore the world.  Its not like I can answer the ( Read more... )

I'm home.  Got back to the States on Wednesday, back to my house in Indiana on Thursday.  Went to work yesterday, got through all my email, etc.  I'm as ready to get back to work on Monday as I can be.

Woke up this morning with no voice.  No voice at all.  Sometimes I can manage a slight croaking sound but otherwise nada.  I got a sinus infection in ( Read more... )

I was hoping to start blogging more regularly but obviously that hasn't happened ( Read more... )

All week I've had ideas on things to post about - The President's eulogy, piracy of e-books, my own consideration of getting an e-reader, stress, yoga. Work kept me beyond busy with no time (or motivation) to post until today ( Read more... )

Just days before I leave for Italy and I have a sinus infection.  I was pretty sure something was going on yesterday while I was working from home.  I woke up with the sinus pressure and headache, all on the left side of my head, per usual, and I was hoping it was just a reaction to the fact that it was raining for the first time in over a month.  ( Read more... )

This cold/sinus infection will just not go away.  I did OK last weekend, doing yard work both Saturday and Sunday.  Got my shoulders a little extra crispy and had to stop a few times to blow my nose but did alright.  Monday and Tuesday I worked full days and made it back to the gym, I was feeling so good.  The cough had ramped up a bit but the head ( Read more... )

Sorry for the radio silence.  I'm still sick and posting has been about the furthest thing from my mind.  If I'm not at work I'm sleeping, or at least trying to ( Read more... )

Despite the head full of snot I made it the full day at work, both yesterday and today.  Got home at a decent time as I skipped the gym and found myself with several hours of sunshine left on an absolutely gorgeous day.  I ate some dinner (first time in days as sinus drainage = no appetite) and thought "I'll change out of my work duds and get my ( Read more... )

The last two weeks have sucked big time in the health department.  Two weekends ago I was uber productive with the yard work, planting flowers, yanking out a yucca, pruning, all that shit.  Couple days later a muscle in my back goes ape-shit and I spend two days at home, mostly flat on my back, dealing with spasms ( Read more... )

Yes, I feel like shit.  Came on very sudden while at work earlier.  And it is bad enough that I came home.

The warm weather, the rain, and the fertilizer have all combined to make my yard wake up and take notice that yes, it is spring.

I keep looking outside and seeing that the grass really needs to be cut.

And then I think that I'm maybe going ( Read more... )
