Rant and Whine

You can't whine!......why not?.......You have to be stoic!.........really? But I really have a sore throat……..If you are going to whine, whine about something funny….or at least amusing………..Okay.

Remember in school there was a clock in the class room. They just came out with quartz movements and the second hand didn’t do a smooth sweep it clicked into place. 5 times 12 per minute. And remember those late spring days or even early summer when the air was hot and the school days were 27 hours long and you were in class suposed to be working at the end of the school day, and that clock just went tic tic tic really loud. I can still remember that sound…..tic…..tic…..tic. They canvassed my old school and got the loudest clock and put it in my room! I can hear it even if the door is open and the hallway noises intrude! I can feel it in my bones. I got even a few nights ago and started using ear plugs. Best $.25 I’ve ever invested.

I forgot the next story except it was going to have lots of asides in it.
_____An Aside is a tool to let you explain things.
I was going to need a new convention and thought an indent might help in the pursuit of clarity.
_____Susan is now rolling her eyes because I plan to butcher another grammatical idiom. I like saying idiom.
__________It ’s my blog and I can butcher grammar if I want to.
_________________See how my asides pile up and indent like crazy.
_______________________Sorry about the lines but the blog won't let me just leave spaces.
Anyway I can’t remember the story I was going to tell.
______I actually have purchased grammar guides in the past. A good one was in my thesaurus. I just don’t read them.
____________Hey Bluey how about bringing that thesaurus in to me? Thanks
_____________________I actually spelt that word thesaurus without spell check! The first difficult word in history I didn’t get help.
What?………..Drivel? DRIVEL!.............would you rather that I whined!........I thought not.

Okay a health check. Just the facts no whining! Temp is great=no infections. Blood pressure a little high but that usually is because my fluid load is high.
______Remember the disclaimer….birthin’ babies….don’t know nuttin’.
Pulse okay and blood oxy level good but down a couple of points. Counts for the day not back yet, it’s 9:00 am I broke with tradition and bloged before showering.
______Thank god they don’t have smell-o-vision yet.
Ulcer in back of mouth right by throat. Slight tendency to acid tummy, No D…….
______Figure it out ‘cause I’m not spelling it out (Can’t actually spell it ;-) )
Ate the soft stuff from breakfast like the Vita brits……no really put on lots of milk and wait a bit……soft! Late breking news I’m down to 18 for platlets so I get some infused. I’m getting Platlets!

Since the whining is threatening and I can’t remember the next story I’m going to quit after some messages.

Cory and Sian where are 100 words each? I guess you can have a few days to produce. Lisa you are writing some great stuff and it’s great to have your observations and the news especially. That above, is how to spell Sian, alias shinny. I am already a fan of Myth busters they are my heros. I’m sorry I missed Shakespeare in the park and don’t worry scholars have been arguing throughout the centuries about how to spell his name. In the end I knew whom you meant.
______I’m typing this in Word then cut a pasting to the blog and my grammar checker wants whom.
_____________I usually ignore the grammar checker……whom……sounds pouncy!
Happy birthday to my brother Rick on the 27th who shares the BD with his son Kyle the scoceer player. They are going out to a FIFA cup friendly game between Canada and Scotland, on their BD, cool eh? Pictures of you in Larry shirts still desired donations or not. And no fair cutting pictures out of Sears catalogue.
______Google it, Shinny…….
On second though if you scan a pic of the shirt and Photoshop it onto a pic of you, I will praise you and put it on my wall here in my grey room……to whinny?.........a bit needy……....there is a lot of other pictures up but there is still lots of room for more ….over there,…….on the clock!

More later
