Get Back in the Game 

I h'ain't written fer quite awhile, ha'e I?

Well, that's because I'm still (after nearly three months) having trouble putting blogging back into my daily routine. I should really do it in the morning when I wake up, but in the morning my brain almost always subconsciously thinks, "I could get up now and write in my website, or I could sleep for another 15 minutes." Which do you think it chooses?

Anyway, this week has been spent almost entirely recovering from a bizarre medical procedure. Don't worry! I was never in any sort of danger or anything.

But I didn't eat anything from Sunday midnight until 5:00 PM Wednesday. That was difficult. I was on a liquid-only diet, and let me tell you, it's difficult to take a bunch of pills that are labeled "Take With Food" when you can't eat food. Consequently, I threw up Monday night due to a less-than-well-protected stomach.

I stayed home from work on Tuesday to recover, and then on Wednesday I actually had Carrie drop me off an hour early. I got all set up to start working, went in the bathroom, and ate a large sammitch. And when I say "ate a large sammitch" I really mean "Threw up a whole bunch in the sink." So Carrie had to come on back and pick me up and take me home where I slept a whole bunch and tried not to be TOO hungry.

Fortunately I was able to get a whole bunch of work done later in the day, and at midnight *gasp* the new Ever After website went live: www.everafterstore.com

I was actually able to eat in the evening, so I had some chicken drumsticks that Carrie had cooked up, and some banana/apple bread that Carrie had cooked up, and some other stuff. And it was all good.

Yesterday (Thursday) I went in to work as per usual. Carrie had to stop by and steal the car from me in the middle of the day, though, to take stuff to the Lareau homestead. She came back and picked me up after work, and as we were driving home we spotted Lawrence walking up the road, so we pulled over and gave him a ride to the Starbucks on the corner near our house.

Then I took a couple of nice naps in the afternoon, while Carrie took one gigantic one that lasted the entire afternoon until 6:00. Well, she was tired!

In the evening I worked on some stuff for websites, not that I have any visually-apparent results from any of it. I also watched Andy Richter's new show, Andy Barker: P.I. It was very funny. And very Conan. I also watched some of Raines, which premiered right afterwards. I liked that it looked like it was gonna be another lame Ghost Whisperer type of show. But it turned out that Jeff Goldblum's character can't actually see ghosts; he's just batsh*t crazy and is hallucinating them.

I tried to cook up a yummy stroganoff-style dinner, but the beef had gone horribly wrong and tasted rather rancid, so that put me off of food for the entire rest of the evening. Until Carrie came home from teaching class. Then she made a gigantic pot of extra-cheesy mac & cheese, of which I did partake.

In bed I played some Tetris DS with me wife, and she soundly whupped me 4 games to 2. Since she started playing online with people she's improved dramatically. Plus, I hadn't played it for probably a month.
