Alergies

I never used to have allergies. It's only been the last 10 years that they've been bothering me. That being said, this year is really bad. I'm having a horrible time trying to breath through my nose and I'm getting massive headaches. I count myself lucky, however, that I can still effectively treat my allergies with over the counter meds. My father's allergies are so bad that he's on prescription meds at greater than the recommended dosage. At the rate mine are getting worse. I'll be just like my father when I get to his age.

Doggy Bone Is A USB Hub

This could be very interesting.

Doggy Bone Is A USB Hub

via Yanko Design by Radhika Seth on 4/13/10

The SMART • E is a smart USB Extender that saves you the embarrassment of pulling out the wrong plug out of the hub. Imagine losing out precious data or function just coz you pulled the wrong plug! How lame!

The practical dog-bone shape diversifies the sockets to the four ends and keeps the wires under control. Hopefully this won’t stay a concept for too long.

Warm enough at last

The weather is finally warm enough to start walking to work. It's 2.2 miles from home to work and I'm averaging about 3 mi/hr. This means it's taking me about 45 min to get to work. The hope is that as I get in better shape I'll be able to walk faster and eventually jog. I'm still too heavy for jogging though as I'm at 325 lbs.

Pain

It's amazing that we forget what it's like to be in pain when everything is ok.

Right now the joint between my pelvis and tail bone is inflamed. To say it hurts is like saying a laser is bright. It sounds right, but when you're in the middle of it it's a gross understatement.

I'm on some strong meds and hope to return to work$ tomorrow. If needed, I do have some sick time I can take it.

Sleep can be elusive

Sometimes sleep can be elusive. And sometimes it's not as elusive as we think. This night I thought I was tossing and turning all night. The chart, though, indicates that I went soundly to sleep after a few hours. Still not the level of sleep I wanted but better than tossing all night.
