The outsider.

I bought two books yesterday, both by Albert Camus.
We had gone out to get fabric so Nadia had something to iron her iron-on printer transfers to, and when we were done she had to go to the toilet so we went next door to the book store. BOOKS-A-MILLION. Or BAM. Gotta love America. Anyhow. While […]

gettin’ busy!

gettin' busy!

(Nadia and I this morning - she’s a bit tired still ;p )
Yesterday Nadia had an appointment with an endocrinologist (a doctor that deals with hormones and glands.) It wasn’t anything urgent, but Nadia has had so many high dose steroid treatments that we thought it’d be a good idea for her to get checked […]

getting better :)

The doctors said I most probably had strep throat - the quick test came back negative, but she said it was classic strep throat. Started on antibiotics and it has gotten better, so it’s responding to the treatment whatever it may be. I’m taking it real easy, eating mostly soups. Well, drinking soups. Who eats […]

sick :(

I’ve been in bed all day. Since last night I haven’t been feeling well, headaches, body aches, I’m hot but the air is cold so I get weird shivers etc. At first I thought I was just dehydrated, but I looked in the mirror today and there’s some strangeness at the back of my throat, […]

big things attract many idiots.

The bigger something becomes, and the more people who participate, the more apparent it becomes that there are too many idiots in the world. The Internet is one example. Another would be roads. When there are a few cars, it’s alright… but as soon as there is heavy traffic it seems that the collective intelligence […]

hours from everywhere.

Today Nadia got a phone call with the results of her urine test, turns out she has another infection. No biggie, we have the antibiotics now. But damn, was it a journey to get them. She has to get them from her insurance’s locations, and the closest one closed before we left the house, so […]

Halo 3

Last night I booted up the xbox 360 to play a new demo that had been made available online (Burnout Paradise) but somehow I ended up playing Halo 3 multiplayer and… well, that was the end of that. I stayed up all night playing against people around the world (Ireland, Scotland, England, America obviously, and […]

UNO, sans cockroach.

While driving around town for the vitamins Clad was saying we should do something, and we said we should get UNO. Yousef didn’t like the idea at all, he was in a bad mood over being dragged away from his Matrix game - but boy did things turn around when we got home and started […]

vitamin shoppe-ing

Today we went to the doctors so Nadia could get a urine test, then drove all the way back home to pick up Clad and the kids so that we could go back out and shop for vitamins. It was cold. Yousef wanted to stay home and play his Matrix game - Path of Neo. […]

first day back.

Hey everyone! Last time I tried to keep a blog to stay in touch with you guys it didn’t go to well, but I’m going to give it another shot. What I’ll do this time is make the blog something of a daily record of what goes on over here, and if I have anything […]
