Year: 2001

Drugs

Bad news: when I went to the cardiologist today, I learned that my heart rate was up quite a bit. I sort of already knew this, after a relatively short Sunday walk left me panting and sweating…

Good news: said cardiologist told me in his wry and mellow manner (I like my cardiologist) that I should “always be concerned, but never worry” and then tweaked my medication, eliminating the nasty six dollar a day stuff that I hate so much. Now I’m back to only three moderately toxic heart/circulatory drugs and one moderately toxic thyroid drug…

All this fun should theoretically end after the first of the year, I hope…

No Mail

Very strange day. I haven’t had one single piece of email all day (spam and mailing list stuff included) since a message from Dan first thing this morning. Nothing work-related, no forwarded jokes (yes!), and no lesbian porn ads. I should probably just sit back and enjoy it, but with all the ISP trouble I’ve had lately, I can’t help wondering if something’s up. Still, I sent myself a test message from a Yahoo account and received it quite promptly…

Maybe it’s just that no one likes me anymore. Or maybe it’s just karmic revenge for the glacial pace at which I answer mail. Either way, I’m pretty sure I can live with it…

Later

Oddly enough, I actually did accomplish things tonight, most of them tiny updates to miscellaneous pages on both sites (but mostly in the San Francisco section at Planet SOMA), all of which were way too minor to list here. Now I’m really going to fall asleep…

Lethargic Sunday

Sunday afternoon. The house is reasonably clean, my car has been brought upto code, I sent Mark on his way back to Fresno a few minutes ago, and I don’t really have any work to do. I should complete some great and wonderful task now, but I think I’m probably just going to watch a movie, read the paper, and maybe fall asleep on the couch…

Damn. It just hits me that my plan might actually involve having to go up to the corner store to GET a paper. May have to scratch that idea for now…

Lethargic? Me? Never…
