My Mom's best friend at the retirement place may be on the downward slope to amputation, and is a textbook case of "you can do everything right, but." Her problem is that she tripped and broke some bones in her foot a couple years ago, and that's led to infections that just won't go away.
Diabetes is a subject I pay a lot of attention to -- people near and dear to me affected, et cetera, like my father who had adult-onset, which probably contributed to his fatal heart attack. One bright spot is that we've got better drugs all the time and more understanding of immune disease processes that will probably see a "cure" in our lifetimes.
mac's beta fish was dead in his tank this morning. poor noodle was upset, but could only manifest it as mad at me.
I just watched this week's Chuck...
Ha! I hadn't thought of it that way, but you're right. I don't think even torture would get him to admit it, though.

Ooof. This made me check Owen's fish.
I have found the Holy Grail of pants. These rock like a rockin' thing. They make a skirt with the same waist and material which is also amazing.
why no posts? I can't work today.
Aww, noodle. When I was his age, one of my fish tortured the other fish to death. Didn't eat it, exactly, just nibbled at its tail until it couldn't swim. Terrible. Not sure what life lesson I learned other than, I don't want to have any more fish. And that one didn't stick, I had fish again in college.
And heh, I think you're totally right, aurelia.

I am working on my other computer that belongs to a client and sits on their network. So I can't go to b.org on that computer, and every time I switch to this computer my KVM switch makes two loud beeps.
Anyway, that means less b.org for me.
I'm trapped in airport hopping hell with iffy access.

Right?! I came over for some goofing and there were just 10 messages since last night!
Hey, does anybody want to buy a really nice condo in Chicago? Boyfriend's place just got listed today!!!
I'm falling down on posting today. I wish I could say that I'm doing really useful things, but not so much, unless condensing breakfast and lunch into one meal counts, at least for efficiency & nutrition & like that.
