Yes I know, Bush has the right, but give me a break, once again this administration is not being held accountable for its own actions.

Scooter must have been ready to spill some major beans…

How Do I Feel?: enraged enraged

Ugh… kill me

I feel like total shit. I have been having some stress issues for a while, mostly migraines, but they are happening more often then ever, and there is no sign of relief anytime soon so I just need to just deal with it for another 3 months.

Today I started to get another migraine, so I did my usual and took the “Excedrin migraine” and tried to chill out, but that for some reason this didn’t work at all and it got much worse, so bad for the second time in 2 years I actually vomited from a migraine.

So from about 5 PM to 9:30 PM I was in pure hell, the room was spinning; I was boiling hot but cold at the same time and just wanted to die. I ended up lying on the office floor for about 2.5 hours until I was ready to sit in a chair again. So I sat in my chair and watched the rest of “Heat”… Man I love that movie, and the idea of Pacino and De Niro making another film together and this time BOTH will be on the screen at the same time makes me drool.

It’s 12:58 AM and I am much better but still queasy, but will stay up another hour or so to get past this feeling some more before I try to crash.

Hope everyone else’s Saturday night went better.

How Do I Feel?: sick

Nothing new really to report here.

Just been stressing over life and the upcoming summer and the current news of deaths of people I have met isn’t helping. I go to the local news online where I grew up every so often, but rarely do I click on the obituaries, but for some reason I did today and I see a guy I went to school with was killed Monday in a car wreck, so I personally knew 2 people whose lives ended Monday and 3rd in the past 5 days.

Matt was a cool guy, my age, very laid back, always wore blue jeans, a white t-shirt and a jean jacket, he and I had a lot of laughs together in class and a few times outside of school, we did hang in different crowds but I did like him, he was 4-5“ taller then me which was rare in HS and he was a white guy whose air was naturally curly, so when it grew out, it was totally a fro which in the late ‘80s wasn’t the “cool thing” but he didn’t care, he had a fro, which for a Indiana hick in the late 80’s was pretty daring.

So I have been spending too much time thinking of the past this week, way too much time, and when you think of the past, odds are it will make you think of death, so I have had death on my mind WAY too much as well and I am pretty sure I have other things I need to focus on.

I ran some test on a stupid side project I want to do, so I needed to test the power capabilities of a few items while they was plugged into a power outlet in the car, so last night I run these test, see what I wanted to see, unplugged it from the truck, turn off the truck and come inside. Today, Pauline tries to go to work and finds a completely dead battery. Thankfully we have AAA and they came out to jump it for free, but the kid told me the battery was shot, so I now had to drop off a already hour late Pauline to work and drive to Sears which is in the bad traffic part of town during lunch hour.

Road rage was close to happing, since I got cut off twice once by a woman who was in a left turn lane when she decide she wanted to cut me off and get in front of me, but I was at a red light, so she forced herself into front of me but kept the back of her truck in the left turn lane and I got to sit there watching this fool sit on her ass blocking traffic and chat on a cell as at least 3 cars behind me was honking their horns for the full 2 minutes it took for my light to go green… 4 horns if you count mine.

Turned out the battery test ok, but this is where it gets interesting, I know we had a Diehard battery, Toni knows we had a Diehard battery… the battery in the truck wasn’t a Diehard battery…. Hmmm…… so where in the last 7 years has this battery gone? Anyway, since we both thought we had a Diehard I spent the $109 to get a Diehard. Everything else looked ok, and hopefully when it is time to go pick Pauline up, it will start… in fact, let me go test it. Yep, starts, at least something went right today.

How Do I Feel?: blah blah
