changes why?

and the change has come... this blogger new look is finally forced upon everyone and my first reaction is similar to my last reaction when i checked it out, why?... for me, the drawback is fewer blogs and less information fits on the screen, so there is more clicking and scrolling to access and manage my many blogs... on the other hand, the cleaner look with bigger fonts and bigger buttons probably works for most who are not afraid of change... so ok, it's done, i'll get used to it...

meanwhile today was challenging... after standing less than five minutes yesterday, today i headed out to the doctor and why does modern medicine have to aggravate an injury or illness by forcing the body to do exactly (or close) the opposite of the advice the doctor finally gives after the waiting... i was elevating, icing, immobilizing, and resting except for the hours i spent at the doctor's office where there was no way to elevate, ice, immobilize, or rest... not to mention exposure to many more germs and bugs than i would have been by staying home... so the foot is more swollen and hurting much more tonight than last night...

i stopped at work to take care of something very time and legally sensitive and found the actions needed to be done by others were not done since i let them know what was missing last week... a few key people just don't seem to care about very important things, alas, and the challenge to keep the place safe, open, and free of expensive lawsuits continues...

and jackson loves me... she took such good care of me the past two days, i would have been seriously hurting a lot more and feeling very depressingly alone if she wasn't here so yay for my roommate and friend... i don't know how i am going to manage tomorrow as i need to get into work but also need to keep my foot elevated, not walk on it much, and not push it too much... but if i don't drive, i am stuck there until jackson can get back and if i do drive, that will be painful pushing a clutch with a boot on...

did i mention i have an immobilization boot?... a bad sprain with a few bone chips, ain't that a kick in the ankle... and that sums up the painful news from the medical world... and the day that was... i know a few of you, maybe more, care and want to know, and i appreciate that (even without the interactions here)... if you were wondering, now you know...

take care of you...

musical distractions

If people had visible signs or meters that told something about them, what would you want it to tell you?

dumb poll (above), smart responders

all the previous poll votes were somehow erased, so, nevermind... ironically or coincidentally or whatever, the results were very close in practical numbers to the results above shown with just three votes, if you understand the mathematics behind that extrapolative reasoning... i will probably remove the poll at some point... it is a ridiculously useless feature...

SEARCH ME

the thing is, with my tendency to babble and meander and whine and allow distraction to take the lead more often than not, even in this blog that sort of meant to merge brevity with focus like some bloggers do, searching for key words does not always lead to specific information about the subject of that key word... but... here is a start at an easy way to search for key words in this blog... use the search box at the top of the blog to search for words not listed here... if ya wanna, that is... and feel free to suggest words to add to this search shortcut section... click on the words below :)

WORK ... JOB ... MUSIC ... LOVE ... SOFTBALL ... KA ... 42 ... LOL ... LAM ... LAA ... ... ...
