Ugh. Drank too much last night. That is all.


Poking in. Last gasp of Summer, and it's gonna be a straight b+@~&

Howdy, Monkey Man! Hope all is well with you!

Scarab Sages

As for me, ugh!

I seem to be developing an illness. Sore throat started yesterday. My nose may be getting a little stiffly.

Mrgh.

Scarab Sages

On a slightly brighter note - looks like the dentist will be able to save my back tooth. I'd had a root canal and cap done to it years ago, but it seems some of the seal fell away and there was a bit of decay. Yesterday they pulled the cap off and took a look. They've already got me fitted for a new cap, which I'll get put on in a few weeks.

Scarab Sages

And that was the first time I've ever been gassed at the dentist. It was neat. But I had to explain to the assistants that "No, I always act this way. It's not the gas."

Scarab Sages

My childhood dentist did not believe in gas. Or shots. Or any kind of numbing. He'd just drill.

F$@&ing sadist.

Lucky you. I can't have the stuff. It gives me panic attacks whenever everything gets all sluggish. It feels like I've been tied down and then everything in my nose starts burning and that's when I freaked out last time.

Scarab Sages

All right, and now to work.

WHAT THE HELL? Was he the guy from Little Shop of Horrors?

I flinch around enough even after I've been numbed, despite my best efforts otherwise. If someone tried drilling in my completely-unnumbed mouth, I'd probably scream and jerk away so hard that I'd end up with the drill in my tongue or cheek or jaw as a result. Then I'd probably end up kicking and screaming for a bit and run out into the lobby and demand a doctor who knew what they were doing, more likely than not.

And then you can bet like hell I'd sue.

Scarab Sages

The worst was, he'd say stuff like "Don't worry, this'll hurt you a lot more than it hurts me."

Now if it was something serious, like a root canal or extraction, he might numb you up. But a cavity - hell no. Drill, baby! Drill!!

Scarab Sages

Also, stoopid f**~ing sinuses!

Scarab Sages

And it might not even be a short day. Depends on how much work my drafter gets done in the next four hours.

it sucks. The flash fan base is a fractured one. Only Green Lantern fans are more divided.


One weekend day done. Three to go

I gave up on the whole green lantern franchise after that crap with Relic and the emotional spectrum energy being used up so the Green Lanterns have to try and stop everyone else from using it. It just got stupid.

Then again, I'm finding myself with less patience for much of modern comic books. Very few of these f!*@ers seems to care about telling a story arc in anything less 5 or more issues. All because of that trade paperback trend shit.

i love the other colors. I too hate the "only WE can use it right!" Attitude.


Great Architect help me I head into the dragon's maw tomorrow. Ora pro me!

Rough night. Baby girl caught my cold and didn't sleep for more than half an hour at a time last night. Until about 0400, when we finally put some Vicks on the bottom of her feet and her chest, that helped her breathe easier and get to sleep for about 2 hours straight.

But I'm still working through my cold, so it was a bad night for mom, dad, and baby girl.

Scarab Sages

Incidently - Sinus Buster. It's a nose spray. It's got pepper. Good shit!

It's also homeopathic. None of the steroids you usually get in nose sprays.

Scarab Sages

The boy's got Alfalfa hair this morning. Awesome!

Scarab Sages

By the way, my inlaws are here. They brought their dogs. I'm cool with this, since I like dogs.

Scarab Sages

The boy is cool with it as well.

Scarab Sages

Baby girl had a much better night, part of which she used daddy as a pillow and mattress. But this is what daddy is for, and I wouldn't have it any other way.

Scarab Sages

Now it's time for Ultimate Spider-Man cartoon with my little buddy.

Scarab Sages

Later today there shall be grilling. Oh yes.....there shall be grilling.

Secret is strong enough for a zombie, but it's made for living women.

Today was dreadful. Hazy/Hot/Humid. I have to say the majority of Summer wasn't bad on the Sandbar. September is always good now that people have used up their holidays and kids are in school.

Today on the Young and the Restless Dead, the role of Monday will be played by Tuesday.

Scarab Sages

And it's already feeling like Monday. Baby girl woke up at 0400 and didn't go back to slee until after I was in the shower.
