But he needs to see me in order for me to get the refills I need. Apparently doctors want to see you at least once a year. Sheesh, so demanding.
I was talking with my doctor earlier this year about having to be called every 2 or 3 years to go in and get a checkup. I've had 13 visits this year.
If you get to thinking you’re a person of some influence, try ordering somebody else’s dog around.

Dinking around. I need to decide about ordering an inkjet printer soon, before they go back to everyday prices. I haven't had a working inkjet printer for over a year, as I have a monochrome laser printer for everyday stuff. But the combination of sale prices and 6-month interest-free financing is playing with my head. There's stuff I need more, but it's not on sale.
Anyway. Lunds' BOGO sale on frozen pizza ends today. It's $3 Whopper Wednesday and $6 sushi at Lunds, so I'll probably make a run today. I don't need sushi, but the pizza I do.

Time to make a cup of tea. Hope everyone is staying warm
My mind read 'panting'. Got very excited for a moment, 'warm' does not come anywhere close.
Being told you're delusional does not necessarily mean you're mental.

My ILS worker helped me put together a storage unit for DVDs and Blurays earlier. It's held together by a combination of dowels, screws, and rods. The dowels were not snug fitting, so as other customers had advised, we used glue to make them more secure. The glue I used sets in 15 minutes, but it takes 24 hours to cure. In the meantime, the thing is standing in the middle of the kitchen doing an excellent job of being in the way. But I don't want to move it until the glue has cured, either.
So, tip-toeing around the unit, drinking beer, and watching a Fast & Furious movie.

Having a cheap beer. I picked up some singles at Trader Joe's on the way home. Two Leinenkugel Chocolate Dunkels, a store-brand IPA, and a store-brand hazy IPA.

Debating whether to get Lee Kum Kee premium soy sauce or Yamasa Shoyu Artisanal soy sauce. I use Kikkoman for everyday, and a bit higher grade for some other things.

Taping Christmas wrapping paper to my window.
I know. I have strange hobbies.
