Congrats to Li'l Griff!! May she attend the school of her choice and conquer!

Took my 3rd son out for a 23rd birthday dinner tonight, had a very good meal while taking in a lovely view over the valley here in Almost Heaven, and just enjoyed the evening. Perfect temperature.

About a month ago i had this weird fucked up thing happen ,
I was driveing and all the sudden my vision went all Swirlly , closeing 1 eye didnt make it go away , so I pulled over and we went to the ER ASAP , so blood work, cat scan , xray , and other tests later i had NOT had a stroke , Bp ok , Sugar level ok , white blood cells count with in norms , liver function ok , etc,,, the only thing they saw was a spot on a lung ,
I went to the eye Dr and he did a THURO exam , according to him i had the Aural part of a migrane
So work wise I finally got time to get a Hi rez cat scan of my chest the other day ,
i heard this afternoon i heard the spot was from a syst or sum such and is benign , nothing to worry about .

The worst case stuff has been running in the back of my mind for a while ,

Glad it turned out the bullet you dodged was a rubber one, Zip.
It's not been a great year for Dwellars health-wise, so it's wonderful to have good news.

glad you're OK, Zippy. And extra bonus points for you, going to the ER immediately after the symptoms.

The swirly vision shit sounds scary enough.

Good luck on Monday afternoon after they pull the camera out of your lungs. Let's hope it's a point and shoot and not a DSLR.

Glad to hear it isn't serious.

Oh, put in an application form for an evening job stocking shelves today.

No doubt they'll be inundated with applicants, but having got the job at Waitrose I am now much more hopeful about my employability.

Just heard that two of my brother's songs got licensed to be played in a future episode of "Roadtrip Nation" on PBS. They're paying him real money for it (not a lot of money, mind you, but still actual money.)
