Once More, But Maybe Not As Sucky This Time (B-day Post)
7 years ago
Hey, it's me. Salen.
It's my Birthday. Again. Seems like it was just last year when I had one of these.
Life has been... interesting since then.
I was still dealing with medical and shoulder issues from the surgery I had when I was struck by a car 2 months earlier. My lawyer was still a good 4-5 months from finalizing my case and all that jazz.
I still avoid eating sugar and stuff to keep my Blood Sugar levels in a normal level. Seriously, I would shiv someone if I could eat sugary foods with no-guilt involving it or having it mess me up physically. Shiiiiiiivvvvvvv....
Let's see, what else happened? Oh, I went and saw an ENT to look at my sinuses. My sinuses were a mess, and after a few thousand dollars, I can now breath through my nose like a normal person. No idea how my septum ended up so f'd up, but it was. But hey, breathing. Yay.
My AC broke at the beginning of September. It sprang a leak and would have cost 1 grand just to refill it. I spent 5 grand to get a new, bigger, better, more efficient unit than to fix the one that was limping along. It sucked for a few days, and cost quite a bit, but it ended up okay.
Uh, not much else to mention. Megaplex was fine this year. No car/ferret-involved weirdness to worry about. It was fun. I feel old though. The game room has grown up so much. The whole con is bigger than the last Anthrocon I went to (which was the last one in Philly). So yeah, not sure if it's just me, or just being an old ferret....
...yeah, I'm old. 43 years old. Now I'm grey-on-grey ferret instead of just normal grey ferret.
Uh, I don't know what else to mention. Oh, and the reason I never mentioned my accident at Megaplex last year... that was lawyer asking me to keep it pretty mum until the settlement. It was... interesting. And not something I suggest others do. It's not fun. Interesting. Not fun. Uh... yeah, I'll stop now.
