A co-worker of mine just sent me an email that she got engaged.

She was not a gun owner until December of '09 and now owns an XD9m and a Bushmaster AR15 Carbine.

Um.....Nope, I've got nothing. Shit really hasn't been going my way lately. Despite this, I am still very much happy and grateful for the good life god has given me, which is good news in itself.

Got out to ride my motorcycle for a few while the rain took a break. Had company yesterday so I didn't get to ride at all.

WVU won, and Pitt lost.

My mom came down with double vision...not sure what the problem is, but she was seeing double of EVERYTHING.

She makes about 25k a year and has no medical insurance. She was referred to some high priced specialist, and she told them her situation. So far, the doctor has absolutely refused to take any payment from her, and the receptionist told her they were under strict orders from the Dr.'s wife to give her everything she wanted for FREE. If I hadn't had my tear ducts surgically removed, I'd shed a tear.

It goes to show there are still some people with decency left in this country. We don't need the government to take care of us. We can manage just fine. The double vision seems to be going away as well. God is merciful.

Today is my first full day of work after a very severe stoke on January 27th.
You can't hardly see any side effects.

I'm still here, and I can now move everything on my right side!

I'm 29 and in good health....

Congratulations! That's great. I hope later today to hear that after nearly 18 months my sisters hubby is employed, but nothing yet. I hope this is a sign that the economy is improving in spite of the Dipshit.

In a couple of weeks they are going to try an epidural steroid injection between C4 and C5 (I think) for a squished doohickey. After 3 years of anti-fucking-depressants because the goddamn docs thought I was a basket case, a student/resident/whatchacall'em thought to do a CAT scan and found an actual physical problem. Then maybe I can go through the exciting process of getting off of painkillers.

Hey, to me that IS good news!
