I saw a vascular specialist/vascular surgeon on Tuesday for a second opinion on what I should do now that my six months are up with the blood thinners. He said I should get of the blood thinners since the clot is gone and any blockage that remains is scar tissue. He also said I should […]
This is probably obvious to most people but as I was making a list of 15 books with the most impact on me the other day and while I was making the list I noticed that most of the books I was listing were fiction. That seemed odd to me since most of the books […]
Before this last past hockey season I never paid attention to hockey, but Nicole was a fan and we started going to some Sharks games. At first my watching was more from an aesthetic standpoint. The patterns traced out by the players skating around were interesting to watch but as far as following what was […]
In the good news, I’ve have the time between my allergy shots extended to 4 weeks. I’ve felt ready for it for a couple of months. Now I’m pretty much on the home stretch of allergy shots. Also the doctor reviewed my previous blood test and found that I don’t have to have any more […]
Rounding out the first half of the year… The Girlfriend Experience – Looking back on it I can see some of the points it was trying to make and, but while I was watching it I really didn’t care. It was all kind of an uninvolved jumbled mess. Casino Royale – Lots of fun action […]

Because of this habit I sometimes watch movies I normally wouldn’t bother with just because it’s there. I should try to do these […]
It takes less than a second to dry. You can drive with all the windows open and now worry about messing it up or it getting tangled. The texture changes every day (so far). You can feel the slightest temperature change on your scalp and it’s very directional. There is still a feeling sometimes that […]
The last one before I’m another year older. Saving Silverman – It could have been funny but mostly something is off and the jokes don’t work. If it wasn’t for the nipple fire scene and Neil Diamond at the end it would be a total loss. Calendar Girls – This was nice in that it […]
