RE: What's everyone up to right now?

I have news that I can't share yet. So don't bug me.
However, aside from my family, one person already knows.
The rest of you will just have to suffer and wait until I announce it.

Yes. Yes, I am.
I can live with that.

Everything went well, apart from a lot of bleeding from my femoral artery. Nothing that was life threatening but I'm feeling a little weak after everything.
Though I can't bloody sleep!
Glad ta see ya on the other side.
You should have had plenty of studs willing to apply pressure to your thigh.
Being told you're delusional does not necessarily mean you're mental.

Watching the Rams / Seahawks game and reading the news. I need to bop down to Target this afternoon, and later I've got a meeting of my philosophy group.

I am trapped in the slowest office in America today. In 6.5 hours, I get to go home. In the meantime, I have to make a ridiculous show of being busy with something every time the boss goes to take a leak or get a cup of coffee. The problem is that I have nothing to do -- nada -- until I begin receiving information from a few ships' Captains, and that won't be anytime soon. One ship just left Qatar; another is still in Finland.
6.5 fucking hours . . . .
What to do? Rep whore? Read the book I started? Stare slack-jawed at the wall, dreaming of an early death?
Perhaps all of them.

Do what I've been doing:
Make a book-accurate 3D diagram of Hogwarts by listening to all of the books and taking note of every mention of a physical characteristic of the castle or grounds.
Teenaged X-Files obsession + Bermuda Triangle episode + Self-led school research project = Atheist.

Oddly enough, my wife and I have a pact that covers that exact scenario: When she finds me diagramming Hogwarts (or any other fictional school), she will quickly and humanely end me. She is then to carry on with her life, without ever telling my children about my sad, final decline.
The official family story will be how I died, trying to rescue a group of elderly, disabled cats before mysteriously (but completely accidentally) impaling my face a dozen times on an ice pick.

I'm glad. Now get better soon, and get the hell out of that hospital bed.
You have malpractice to practice, Doctor!
