That must be why I dreamed last night of a badger swarming with ear mites. Lots of things biting you right now. Sorry to hear it. Hang tough.OK, so this weekend, the least of my issues was dealing with a flu-like bug.
My grandmother passed away yesterday. She had Alzheimer's for 10 years (at least), so I already "lost" her in a sense, but it was sad to find out about her death. By all accounts, she passed peacefully.
My wife has a kidney infection, and she was almost admitted to the hospital on Saturday. The antibiotics don't seem to be helping, so I think I'll be driving her there in the very near future.
So, bleh.
Condolences on your loss, Mr. Badger. It's tough watching someone slowly lose their fight with something as horrible as Alzheimers. May you only remember the good times with her. Also hoping your wife's kidney(s) start responding to the antibiotics soon and that there aren't any surprise complications.
And thanks to Treppa, I'm now picturing Tiny mites that are also were-mites. Ewwww...
Edit: Nekkid mite infestations?! Double EWWWWWWW!
Very sorry for your loss, badger. :(
And I hope that your wife feels better soon.

What's an orange roll?These.
My parents loved eating these for breakfast when I was a kid. Sometimes, they'd let me have the leftovers, and that was when you knew it was gonna be a good day.
Dragon Age: Inquisition is probably the most mentally taxing game I've ever played. I feel like I need a spreadsheet to keep track of all the s%#@ I need to do.It's not that different from Mass Effect just all laid out on a map.
Pretty much, except that while each Mass Effect game runs ~40 hours to completion, DA:I takes about ~140-160 if you want to do everything, and all of the objectives are listed in tiny tiny print that you can't read, so you end up missing things if you're not careful.

Oh Freehold...its...beautiful....
F%+& that noise right in the ear.
Hmmm. I ran out of regular coffee, so I had to make this morning's batch with an emergency bag of pumpkin coffee I had in the freezer. I think it's doing weird sh*t to my brain.Pumpkin or pumpkin...spice?
Yeah, it's pumpkin spice. I'm not big on flavored coffees, so I only have it cause I got it as a gift for house & pet sitting. It kinda makes my brain feel "itchy" and anxious, if that makes sense. Now that I think about it, I've been heartburn-y the last couple days. Maybe it's related?
~shrugs~ Oh well. Mom's car will not start. Our guess is the starter. I will be getting a friend to look at it and then get it towed somewhere. I am glad that I included towing in the car insurance.

I think I might just make a fort out of pillows in a corner and hunker down in there the rest of the week.
I see you've done this before.
Not to worry, they won't breach the east wall on my watch!
I'm renaming Auntie Bieber Haircut Lady to Simon & Simon Doo annoyance, every day she is more annoying then before, and she keeps trying to touch me, whether it's a friendly punch to the shoulder or a pat on the back I want nothing to do with it, and every hostile "don't touch me" has no effect whatsoever.
Man, do I hate her>:(

Helpful hint: Liquor bottles will not break in a pillow fort, assuming you set them at least 18" away from each other.
After consuming said liquor, you will not hurt yourself passing out in your pillow fort...

I claim Sleeping Bagtopolis, and then to spur economic growth, I'll combine it with another sleeping bag, hopefully the zipper doesn't burst from overcrowding.

I would use those little square pillows for siege warfare that'll teach em to attack pillowtown
We have a 4' x 4' closet filled five feet high with just stuffed animals, a good many weighted with beanies.
The blitzkrieg will be overwhelming and devastating.

I'm starting to come to grips with the fact that my knowledge of and skill with modern technology is stuck in about 1985. I wasn't even alive in 1985.
I was nine.
I pee'd in Canada, once.
I've never been back.
I really hope I didn't just waste the last 4 hours.

I have never had a sinus infection, but I imagine this is what one feels like. I should probably get it checked out. Is this year over yet?
Does it feel like somebody stuffed your face holes full of Brillo pads and unspeakable horrors are draining from said holes?

Gable spent most of 1943 in England at RAF Polebrook with the 351st Bomb Group. Gable flew five combat missions, including one to Germany, as an observer-gunner in B-17 Flying Fortresses between May 4 and September 23, 1943, earning the Air Medal and the Distinguished Flying Cross for his efforts. During one of the missions, Gable's aircraft was damaged by flak and attacked by fighters, which knocked out one of the engines and shot up the stabilizer. In the raid on Germany, one crewman was killed and two others were wounded, and flak went through Gable's boot and narrowly missed his head. When word of this reached MGM, studio executives began to badger the Army Air Forces to reassign its most valuable screen actor to noncombat duty. In November 1943, Gable returned to the United States to edit his film, only to find that the personnel shortage of aerial gunners had already been rectified. He was allowed to complete the film anyway, joining the First Motion Picture Unit in Hollywood, California.
In May 1944, Gable was promoted to major. He hoped for another combat assignment but, when the invasion of Normandy came and went in June without any further orders, Gable was relieved from active duty as a major on June 12, 1944 at his request, since he was over-age for combat. His discharge papers were signed by Captain (later U.S. President) Ronald Reagan. Gable completed editing of the film Combat America in September 1944, giving the narration himself and making use of numerous interviews with enlisted gunners as focus of the film.[33] Because his motion picture production schedule made it impossible for him to fulfill Reserve officer duties, he resigned his commission on September 26, 1947, a week after the Air Force became an independent service branch.
Adolf Hitler favored Gable above all other actors. During World War II, Hitler offered a sizable reward to anyone who could capture and bring Gable to him unscathed.[34]
That's some straight up comic book supervillian stuff right there.
Does drinking an $8 bottle of pinot out of a chardonnay glass while eating frozen chicken nuggets and watching reality shows on Spike TV in a sty of an apartment make me white trash?

Were the chicken nuggets still frozen when you ate them? It may affect my answer.

No.
Now, if you were drinking a $3 bottle of anything and etc etc,... then the answer changes to probably yes.
That's why I never watch reality TV, only my super-hero shows, and eat only the finest Medium cheddar with my $3 bottle of wine. And I'm such a putz I don't even know WHICH kind of wine glass I'm drinking it from. It is wine-glass shaped, and I drink wine from it. All of my various wine-y flavors.
;P
I just skip the glass entirely, I don't need a middleman to get drunk damn it!
Also you should be fine as long as your coffee table ain't constructed from empty Budweiser cases and duct tape.
Whoo hoo!
Feels a lot like Seattle outside!
Pre-Winter wash away is upon us!
An inch of rain overnight, another inch expected during the day, a half inch overnight, with a quarter inch expected tomorrow before it winds down.
All topped off with temps in the 50s.

Interesting fact Clark Gable's gunnery training took place in my home town.

Tiny T-Rex (at the dentist) "Ninja Turtles don't get dirt in their teeth, they just go on missions"
Walking in the back for the check up "Are you giving me my check up?" Dental assistant "yes" Tiny T-Rex "Oh, great! I'm sure you'll do a spectacular job"
They love Tiny T-Rex at the dentist's office.
