I checked the prices on her ads just the other day because I was curious. And man, you know what, as long as they aren't absolutely obnoxious blinking on her site I don't care. More power to her for making money at what she loves doing and doing it well.

I'm a dooce fan. Can you tell?

I agree, that's why I talk about being jealous.

Isheeta, She's an ex-Mormom mom living in Salt Lake city that was fired from her LA job a few years back for writing too much about her job and co-workers on her blog site. She got some fame over that and is a very funny writer as well.

Being an ex-Mormon who just moved from UT I read Dooce every day. She is funny. Because of her, I rarely discuss work or co-workers in my blog. But let me tell you, the last job I had gave me plenty to write about had I been a blogger back then!

Maybe I should start a string of posts related to the stuff that went on at that place!

I love my visits here. I came via Michele's tonight...I was a bit disturbed by the Dooce sell out as well. And yes...I'm totally jealous - but mainly I'm just jealous of how well she writes. I wish I had an ounce of that!

Nitroflex at home

Image
I mentioned a few days ago that I'd purchased off of Craig's List an exercise machine. A Nitroflex, to be more specific, for the grand sum of $75. The boxes you see to the left were bought by the seller as discontinued merchandise over a year ago and stored in his back yard storage shed. You might be able to see some of the bugs and such that had made their homes on these boxes. I left them out on my deck for a few days before opening them to allow the insects to leave gracefully or die in the sun. The picture to the left is the pieces from the box, unboxed, and up in one of my upstairs bedrooms. For the most part it wasn't difficult to move it around though two pieces were heavy and a number of them were kinda long and bulky to be wandering about the house with. Surprisingly, this kit didn't require any extra tools. There were two allen keys and one combo wrench included in the boxes and that was all it took to put it together. The whole thing only took about half an h...

ankle update

S ince a few people object to seeing my feet --poor misdirected souls--I have the two pictures below hidden behind links. Behold them at your own risk! *evil laugh* Actually they're not scary though the first one is a little colorful. T he first picture shows my ankle and foot from the side, as labeled. You can see a lot of general edema of the entire foot. There's also a good bit of discoloration of the ankle area and to a lesser degree the top of the foot all the way down to the toes. The side view is a lot worse in this regard than the top view. T he second picture shows the two feet from the top so you can compare the somewhat normal looking right foot to the injured left foot. There's not much abnormal color on this view but you can see the "sausage like" swelling of the left foot. It's this swelling that is causing my main problem--I can't get the foot into my boots and I need the boots to support the ankle. Damn Catch-22. Side view, looking inward ...

Ostrich poop found here

Image
I took these pictures last Fall while visiting the NC Zoo. On the left you can see what appears to be a nice polite ostrich just wandering around. This impression soon turns out to be false when her dowdy tail feathers raise up and reveal a puckered anus. Ewwww! If you look carefully, you can see that she's made a deposit on the ground. More ewwww! Feel free to click on the image to make them bigger. Details can make all the difference in these shots. In other matters, aren't those really bony legs they have? And couldn't they have a little more color?
