T + 231 Collywobbles in his Pandenoodles

By -
Well it's been a funny few days. Funny peculiar I should say, not funny "ha-ha".  Just before the close of normal business on Friday evening, with me looking forward to a long break off work until Thursday, I got involved in helping with an issue for our Houston office that on and off took up, for me, most of the night until about 23:00. (Other worked on to it long into the early hours but I didn't want to push my luck more than I already had). I coped pretty well with the extra work but one thing I've found is that when I get for the want of a better word, excited, about a work problem I end up with an occasional attack of the collywobbles,  by which I mean a sort of quivery feeling and slight tremors in the hands that reduce my fine motor skills like writing, typing or moving the mouse. ( I see from the link given that collywobbles means something different but I've always thought of these quivers as collywobbles, but I digress.....). The best way to describ...

Anyone remember Game for a Laugh I went to the day unit for bloods as usual this morning then logged on to work in the afternoon. Whilst at the day unit I bumped into my fellow inmate from my last sojourn who was moved into isolation when he got bug. He's been out since Monday and was looking well. It was nice to catch up with him and doubtless our paths will cross over the coming months. So the Game for a Laugh reference, well since the end of April I have been using the Google Analytics service to provide stats for this blog and see how people are logging on etc. It shows that I have had 219 hits from 75 unique visitors. I'm not sure how the 75 unique visitors translates to actual humans as it is possible that if you disconnect and reconnect to your Internet Service Provider you get a different IP address and could appear as a different visitor.

T + 56 Getting Ready for the Long Haul

By -
Tomorrow I am at the transplant clinic but I couldn't get my usual appointment slot of 10:00, instead I have a later one of 10:45. Given that the time you actually get seen slips more the later you are because of how appointments overrun , I'm expecting quite a delay tomorrow. Add to this the fact I'll need drugs from the pharmacy which is another hour and I'm going to be at the hospital for quite a while tomorrow and again on Thursday when I am having three units of blood which will take about four or five hours. So to cope with this I'm getting prepared for things to keep me occupied. I haven't listened to any of my usual podcasts this week and will take them loaded up on my iPod. I'll have my book with me, The Algebraist by Iain M Banks and as I am getting down to the last 100 pages I'll probably take a slim volume of short stories and a magazine to give some variety and make sure I don't run out. Item one on the agenda with the doc tomorrow will...
