Hickory smoked tongue
Filed in Musings, March 1, 2008, 11:38 pmWell, it’s back. I don’t think I’ve mentioned this before but I have this strange phantom smell (also known as olfactory hallucination) that shows up now and then that settles in my nose, mouth and throat. This wonderful scent? A putrid odor spectrum ranging from campfire to cigarette smoke. The problem is it’s there no [...]
The little Annie that could
Filed in Musings, November 14, 2007, 11:25 pmToday was an incredibly productive day and yesterday I was no slouch either. This place, minus the kitchen and my bedroom, look far better than they have in a very long time. My bedroom is my next project and it will be big. You see, my bedroom is like the parking lot for crap in [...]
Splendid days
Filed in Musings, August 7, 2007, 11:28 pmI’ve been a busy bee for the past few days. Monday I attended a wonderful photography workshop put on by Special Kids Photography of America about photographing children with special needs and the night before I went out to dinner with a bunch of people who were attending the workshop who had just arrived in [...]
Randomness and miscellany
Filed in Musings, July 19, 2007, 10:35 pmKept the mask on last night. Felt a little better today.
However . . . injured my foot trying to see how high I could jump and hit a sign hanging in the elementary school hallway. Fucking ouch.
I have scads of laundry to fold but it sits there still.
My tendency to procrastinate is causing me stress [...]
Is this awake?
Filed in Musings, July 6, 2007, 8:48 pmI’m waiting for the result of this experiment to be replicated but so far I’ve awoken (woke? woken?) twice with the mask still on (very strange feeling). Last night I got to bed at a fairly decent time and didn’t get out of bed until around 8am so I’m estimating that I got maybe eight [...]
The mask of life
Filed in Musings, June 6, 2007, 10:50 pmI’m happy (I guess) to report that I actually kept that damn thing on for the entire night last night. That would be the first time since I got it. Up until now, somehow, I’ve ripped it off in the middle of the night, every night, without any recollection. Maybe it’s because last night was [...]
Confessions and miscellany
Filed in Musings, May 24, 2007, 10:04 pmConfession:
Michael Messer makes Noggin worth watching more hours a day than would be considered healthy for a child. He’s a member of the Dirty Sock Funtime Band (and toured with Hair) and I’m convinced he’s a strategically placed piece of eye-candy to keep the moms willing to not turn the channel. I’m telling you right [...]
Fucking ouch
Filed in Musings, May 22, 2007, 10:15 pmYeah, the throat still hurts and yeah, I’m going to continue whining about it. It occurred to me that I have a follow-up with my ENT Thursday afternoon so I’ll mention it to her. She’s all schooled on the throat and issues related so I’ll offer up my whining to her rather than my PCP. [...]
The CPAP blues
Filed in Musings, May 17, 2007, 8:05 pmThis CPAP stuff sucks. I am so fucking tired today I want to claw out my eyes out. Now, to be fair, I started the bed time thing much too late. I didn’t get around to bed until almost midnight (I’m hooked on the Sopranos now that it’s on A&E and free). I took my [...]
One unobstructed airway-coming right up!
Filed in Musings, May 14, 2007, 3:55 pmThe phone call I’ve been waiting for finally came–my CPAP is coming. Wednesday morning some broad is coming to show me how to look like a freak and drown me with air forced up my nostrils use it and then I get to start using it that night. Apparently I have to buy distilled water [...]
