XMas went pretty smoothly, IMHO.

I got hooked up with a nice 1TB disk and some other things I will remember for life by my wonderful wife. Mom and Dad as always sent some very sentimental gifts, as they always remember what we say when we talk to them, its quite interesting :)

A friend from IRC stayed over for two days or so and it was a blast. I was so nervous because our place isn’t huge, but she didn’t seem to mind. We talked alot and had alot of fun, I hope she shares the sentiments.

Budget is tight, but working. We have found a few ways to stretch things so everyone gets a fair amount and we are all happy. Nontheless, it’s still very stressful and we’re working to rememdy that part.

Happy new year! I plan to say “Hi!” to my friend Jack Daniels. LOL.

I’ve been having sleeping issues as of late but I think I have finally pinpointed the issue: tooth ache. Suckage. I think I will get it looked at sooner or later, but I could care less of such things. I think one of my meds caused the destruction of a few teeth, and I am very self-conscious of my appearance and this just makes it more of an issue.

Anyways, hope you all have a nice drunken new year. :)

Just a general update, my Dad is now at home and feeling alot better. He may be in line to get another surgery done in the future, but lets hope that he doesn’t.

A good friend of ours Caylin is staying with us for a few days, it’s going really well :) She has relaxed a bit after a day or so of me and Shyla torturing her ;)

I am on yet another dose of my pain meds and psych meds, and it seems to be working out well so far. Changing this shit all the time is kinda rough but it’s always for the better in the end.

Merry late XMAS!!

My mom called me earlier today to note that my father is in the hospital with an almost-bursted diverticuli.

This is quite worrysome for me and I am having some problems dealing with it so.. I don’t know. I just hope he comes out without too many problems. Please pray/think good thoughts/whatnot for him to get out safe, if you can.

I’m pretty worried but Mom told me not to freak, so I’m trying my best to put on a happy face and distract myself from worrying, but it’s hard. This is the first time in a LONG time I’ve known my Dad this sick :(

In other news, we are all doing fine here. I have been playing much L4D and CS:S lately and I am having a lot of fun playing some games online through Steam. Steam is a pretty cool thing where much of the money you pay goes directly to the developers.. Check it out sometime if you haven’t.

Good night all.

Today I went to Austin Pain Associates and I finally met my doctor after waiting for 5 months for the appointment. Things went GREAT. He tweaked my meds a little bit which should make a huge difference, and of all things he’s very VERY nice. And he believed what I told him! Big change from dealing with the past clinic :P

I am learning to play more games ;)

I beat COD4:MW and BioShock a few days ago..

BioShock’s ending sucked.. Heh, however, COD4:MW’s was pretty good! Don’t worry, I will not spoil it here :)

Life in general is going pretty good, still concerns are up in my head but I am learning how to not worry so much. I don’t know if this learning process is helping yet, though, I sure hope it does. Being a chronic worrier isn’t fun at all.

After the next few appointments tomorrow and the next day, I am finally free for a week! This week has been a mess of appointments and critical ones too, which we could not miss. I will be happy that that stress is lifted from me in a few days.

Peace.

I’ve made a few small modifications to the blog, such as a new theme.. Then I had to hack up the theme to display dates on posts and use correct text in various areas. Over all I like the nice chromatic scheme :)

I am sending lots of good thoughts, me and Shyla included, to our good friend “Alk” :) She might be in a very bad situation due to her brother, and we both hope she pulls through. Alk, you are strong and you can do it!!

I saw the doctor two days ago and I got various new things and pain meds refilled. I think the new eye drops are called “Nafcon” or something, and also a psoriasis ointment called Dovonex, which I really hope works, as the Diprolene AF cream is becoming not very useful and it is a very powerful steroid. Since I usually get psoriasis on my lower body, it’s not exactly something great to put down there :P

Shyla is coming back from the store shortly so I better go and get ready to see her arrive :)

Laters.
