I just saw infinite monkey's post in there. I totally missed it as my post went up. Sorry to hear your knee is giving you pause, but pleased to hear you are keeping up.

I have an important networking event tomorrow afternoon, a presentation to the hospital Board on Monday, several site visits to regional companies early in the week, and another work event on Wednesday evening ... and my left eye has just developed a lovely case of episcleritis. My eye is red, with a big raised patch on the lateral side that looks gross, and it's painful enough to be distracting. Also, I can hardly keep it open.

I'm heading to the pharmacy to pick up some steroid and NSAID drops that I hope will settle it. Otherwise I may be wearing a holiday glitter eye patch for all these meetings and events.

Dress like a Pirate.

Or Borg.

orthodoc · 12-13-2014, 03:20 PM

Hahaha! I wish ...

Although if the 'roids and ketorolac drops keep helping, I won't need to dress like either one. Hooray for 'roids!!

They'll make your testicles shrink.

orthodoc · 12-13-2014, 04:35 PM

I'll keep that in mind.

But oh, the blessed relief! 'Roids aren't benign, but when you really need 'em, there is no substitute.

Oh, ye--Wait, whut?

There is surely no work to be done for the rest of the xmas season, yet here I sit at my desk waiting for work to come in and be done, so that I can avoid taking valuable vacation days up during this slack period.

Eeeeeeeeasy money.

These are the good old days.

My computer just had a stroke. Locked up tight. No CTRL-ALT-DEL, nothing. Did a hard reset, everything seems ok. I think that's the first time this particular 'puter locked up in the BSOD way.

Do ya still get the Blue Screen Of Death when the computer takes the short dirt nap?

I had one tab open in Firefox (34.0.5, updated yesterday afternoon, hating the new search bar, btw) and was in GooglEarth (6.2.2.6613) StreetView looking at the Red Lobster in Times Square, when it laid down.

I updated Windows (a massive undertaking, I hate updating Windows, something always goes wrong during or after) yesterday, also. I did the FF update, then messed around, everything seemed kosher. Updated Windows, messed around a little, everything seemed fine. Updated AVG, and everything seemed fine after that, too.

Maybe the puter just decided to sneeze or something.

ETA: I was trying to determine if Billy had eaten a red lobster in Times Square, or eaten at Red Lobster in Times Square. Perhaps it was both.
