Going to the Doc after work. Seems like it is just a strain of the chicken pox.


Last year I had this cut on my face that got infected. Very shallow infection but I kind of knew what happened and what caused it. Went to the doc and he couldn’t figure out if it was an infection or shingles but he was pretty sure it was both. Only the finest doctors st urgent care I tell ya.

Sheesh. Did they take care of that?

St. Urgent would be an awesome name for a hospital. Or a good patron saint of having to go really badly. Santo Urgento, I beseech thee, send now dryness to my codpiece.

Yeah. Only minimal scaring on face from infection.. barely noticeable. I think St Urgento might of helped me more.

Hey you guys know what's back in style now - horn rimmed glasses. I shit you not. One kid on our work crew, he's like 28/29 got new glasses that were horn rimmed. He was saying how it looked cool and sophisticated and like Malcom X. He says the kids these days are into this now. Who would have guessed.

HAHAHA St. Urgent Care. That's great. I had one urgent care doctor that was dressed like me, i kid you not. Actually he and I had the same 7+ year old gym shoes. It was an eerie moment. I looked at his shoes and he looked at mine and we both didnt have to say anything. But that guy was a doctor while I'm a semi-bum, LOL. I guess these guys don't get paid much.

This is at least the third or fourth time they've been popular again in my lifetime.

Of course I actually have a semi Nehru jacket I bought to wear at a party night in St. Martin 25 years ago :oops:

The smell of farts is so common that whenever someone mentions a smell, I instinctively blurt out that it was the dog.

Gets awkward when they were commenting on food or candles.

I turned down free Bulls tickets last week because I didn't want to bother with going in to the city to watch them lose and then come home late. No way I do that 15 years ago. In my defense, they were 300 level, but within the first 10 rows.

Have one dog that is no longer allowed certain treats. He took one for the team after an adventure in Mexican food.

I spent about 30 minutes stuffing and addressing Xmas cards to some family and friends. I don't have that many to sent to "my people",
maybe around 20. I don't think many people bother with cards anymore. To make myself extra old, I drafted up a short family newsletter to
let people know what we were up to this past year. I am sure no one cares. :eye:

I regained my pimp hand this year and tossed my lazy step-daughter to the curb. Also got to see President Trump in person and didn't even get molested. SOLID year.

:lol: I didn't need to type up a letter. I could have printed that onto a thin piece of paper, slipped it into a fortune cookie, and mailed that out.

If you are mailing cookies, I'll take one.

Don't forget to include the 120 or so golfballs you found while trouncing thru the woods.

That's not getting older. It's getting wiser.

In March of 2010, my wife and I went to our last Hawks game. We enjoyed it but after working all day, driving from Tinley to the UC, standing in the lines, and waiting in traffic to get home, we realized we would rather stay home and watch the game and spend the money on other forms of education. And this was when the tickets were still cheap.

I went to a Bucks game a week ago. A ticket fell into my lap out of the blue from some people at my wife's work. I had to be convinced that it would
be good for me to go. I ended up getting home at 11 which isn't too bad but even after I went I told myself it wasn't worth the hassle even though I
was glad I got to see one last Bucks game in that building.

I pulled up the video for Band Aid's Christmas song for a guy I work with and he had no idea of its existence, knew none of the singers and was born after it was created.

80s music to him is the chronological equivalent of 40s music to me. :o

That's twenty years ago.

300 level is so high up. It's ok if it's a big game, but yea no way I'd care this year.

Why did it have to be Farley? Why couldn't it have been Mancow? I think Farley had run out of original gags, but a guy like that is good for a species to keep around.

Front row of 300 is pretty good though really. Nice view.
