JANUARY 2004

January 26, 2004

All three of us here have been sick
like we were brewing the flu bug or something.

You know those medicines that say 8 to 12 hour relief from congestion, cough and fever?
Lies!! All lies!!

We brought Tyler to his Doctor, because he's been sick for quite a while now,
It's just nice that Tracy is a Registered Nurse,
that she gets to talk medical stuff to them and explains it all to me later.

The Doctor also noticed Tyler's diaper rash and gave us this "Prescription Tushy Cream"
Since he concluded that what we were using wasn't effective.

Prescription Tushy Cream??
Now, are people really abusing this stuff out in the streets that it has to be prescribed?

Is there a Betty Ford Rehab for Tushy Cream addicts out there?
Therapy sessions maybe?

Tyler's Doctor sent us to the hospital for some tests,
Now one cool thing about this Hospital,
"Valet Parking" - Sweeeett!!!
And parking is free!!!
Free Parking!! A system that is unknown in Canada.

I don't mind being sick,
Except for the cough.
I hate having the coughs.
I hate it, I hate it, I hate it.

Especially when you're asleep,
And you wake up just to cough.

Did I mention no cough medicine works?

I need to get out and get some fresh air.
The three of us here in this house are passing the virus to each other
like the Quaffle at the World Cup Quidditch Game.

Oh yeah, I read Harry Potter books 3 and 4 again.
And will start 5 soon.

Why?
Because I am sick.
And I am in the bathroom a lot.

Anyways,
What was I saying?
Oh yeah,
We need to get out and get some fresh air.
But it's cold out.
We had freeze warning here in Florida for the last 5 days.

What is the deal?
I thought this is the Sunshine State?
Somebody lied to us!!!

Oh well.
What can you do….

How about some of these new cool links??

My personal record is 317.9 ---> Penguin (Warning: this is strangely addicting)
This is some cool flash animation ---> Japanese music flash
Women and guitars are a deadly pair ---> Jackson Guitars
The Harmonica is the shiznit! ---> Beat box harmonica
Whoever invented this should be shot ---> Juggler

What do you do when you turn 15 months old?

You show Winnie The Pooh who's Boss!!!!
15 Months Old

Also,
On a personal note…

When you clean the bathroom drawer and see your wife's nail polish,
And you think it's gonna be "funny" when you apply them on your fingernails,
And wait for the "shock value" on her face,
or the "laughter" that she would get for knowing how crazy you are…

Make sure she has some nail polish remover first!

Or else you're gonna end up scraping your nails with a nail file,
and she would still be laughing at you.

Lesson learned.

I started to work on a new layout.
It sucked.
So I just changed the background picture.
"Just to have the illusion that I did something drastic."

Thanks to Webstrings.com for the images.

Also, The Photos are up, for the meantime.
Thanks to 1and1.com.

That's it for now.

Here are some cool links to waste some time.

Roller Coaster Simulator ---> Funderstanding Coasters
For the Storm Lovers ---> Stormgasm
And for the Car Lovers ---> 2004 North American Auto Show
Test your Speed ---> Speed Card Game

I received this forwarded email from a friend.

Why Worry?

There are only two things in life to worry about:
Whether you are well,
or whether you are sick.

If you are well,
then there is nothing to worry about.

But if you are sick,
there are only two things to worry about:

Whether you are going to get well,
or whether you are going to die.

If you get well,
then there is nothing to worry about.

But if you die,
there are only two things to worry about:

Whether you are going to go to heaven
or whether you are going to go to hell.

If you go to heaven,
then you have nothing to worry about.

But if you go to hell,
you'll be so busy shaking hands with all your friends,
that you won't have time to worry!

So, Why Worry?
Be Happy.

Now what I am really worrying about now is:

If I don't forward this to 10 of my friends,
within the next hour,
I'll have bad luck for a year.

I don't have 10 friends.
Maybe I'm exempt.

We spent most of our days in Canada without a Family Doctor.
Everyone knows that Medicare is free up there.
Well, not really "free".
I believe it's being taken somewhere from the 900% tax we got.

Now, We did try to have a family Doctor.
Especially after Tyler was born.
And tried we did.

Not one Doctor was taking any patients.
The Medical shortage was taking it's toll.

We were told to check this website - CPSO
And look for a Physician.
So we did,
But even though we called each and every one of them,
The answer we got still ended up in frustration.

It's also annoying when something happens, and you need to see a Doctor,
Either you go the the Emergency or you go to a Walk-in Clinic.
Either way, you spend a minimum of 5 hours in the waiting area.
Then when it's finally your turn, they ask you who's your family doctor,
And it's like it's your fault when you tell them you don't have one.

Quite maddening, really.

So now we live in the States,
I am quite apprehensive on how to deal with the Medicare down here.
Even though I dislike the Canadian Health Care system,
I am still glad that I can go and get looked at
without any money in my pocket. (after hours of waiting)

So anyway, our priority for now is to get Tyler a Pediatrician,
And Tracy acquired this long list of them from the phone book.
Called the very first one Doctor closest to us.
And next thing you know,
We have an appointment on Tuesday.

That easy.

Last thing I heard.
Both Canada and the U.S. are both in Medical shortage.
Except one is doing something about it.

I don't know.
Maybe it's just me.

Wasn't last week a crazy one?

Steve Irwin shows off by endangering his 1 month old son.
--- I hope your son does the exact same thing to you when he's the Croc hunter
and you're a 75 year old, invalid, Croc of crap.

Britney Spears got married and had the marriage annulled right away.
--- The whole world gets a sigh of relief. Phew!
That poor guy must have been traumatized.

NASA's Rover lands on Mars.
--- Should I be proud to say that I am excited about this news?
This has to be the coolest news ever!

Japanese researchers say that the action of peeling fruit, enhances a portion of the brain.
--- I know what that portion is called.
It's called the portion where you think to yourself,
"I hate to have to peel this fruit, I am freaking hungry" .. Geez!
Oh yeah, by the way, still no cure for Cancer.

New Osama Bin Laden tape received.
--- With all these tapes of him being sent in.
Maybe it's an audition tape for another one of those Reality TV Shows.

And that's just the first week of the Year.
Fun times ahead huh?

HAPPY NEW YEAR TO ALL!!

After reading all my 2003 posts,
Last year was a big year for us.

Especially with the big move down south.
It's funny how this adlib, became my Year in Review.
I don't need no CNN.

I also did not make any resolutions this year.
So, I must say, I am doing good so far.

Although,
Am I the only one who enters the New Year
with more worries than last year?

Maybe it's just me?

What do I know.
I am just a guy with a website.
