Ok, not Marvel’s Grey Hulk but feeling a bit good. The shower head was always spraying at the neck. Somehow the washer inside the hose got all twisted and mangled. Home Depot didn’t have exactly the same washer but found something that worked reasonably well. We’ll see how it goes after a week to see …
Sigh. It was bound to happen sooner or later. I am just glad it happened once vaccines were made though. But it was pretty much inevitable here. Here being Alabama. Denise is doing her Ph.D. here because it was the only school that accepted her application. Probably helps that she got her Master’s degree here, …
A while back I got a lab test of all lab tests because of turning 50. Getting old sucks. Through the tests it showed I was pre-diabetic on sugar and liver function showed I was doing rather poorly to the point the doc said it showed I suffered liver damage. Yikes. But really, not that …
Recent bloodwork indicates I have high blood sugar. Much too high according to the doctor. In a way, I am not entirely surprised. Covid, being a computer programmer, and working from home. I have not exactly been ‘active’ in burning off the sugar. So I really need to work on working out; I cannot be …
I am now 50 years old. Dang. My eyes are not working as well. I have always had glasses but now I need to start using reading and regular glasses for clearly seeing things at a distance. The last few glasses I’ve had were ‘progressive’ lenses. The idea here is that the top portion is …
For the longest time I avoided it. Mainly because I didn’t have a use case for it. I use C for mostly everything and recently when I was attempting to do some web programming it was PHP and JavaScript. Both PHP and JavaScript are just painful to use. PHP because of some of the ways …
To whoever actually visits this site. Wishing you all the best and hoping you are all staying healthy and safe considering all that is happening in the world today. It has been a serious struggle for some of you and I strive to be ever more forgiving and patient through it all. I hope it …
The University of Alabama is pretty. Lots of colonial-style buildings, open spaces, and air conditioning. It is warm here but not as warm as a few weeks ago. Lately, it has been at most 30 celsius at most. It is humid. Rains every now and then. Lots of crickets and cicadas making noises in the …
I’m in Alabama at the moment. Wife flew down a few weeks before me. I had similar/same problems as she did when she flew through Dallas Fort Worth. It’s COVID, I get it, but you would think the Airline would ‘fix’ their schedule or something to avoid a hot mess at their hub. Apparently not. …
I decided to make a decision. Someone had stock of a Gigabyte AERO 17 HD machine. A bit on the pricy side but they had a $500 off the sticker which helped the decision. I am still not a huge fan of the looks but the machine works well. I should not call this a …
