BROWN is a credible and stable color. Reminiscent of fine wood, rich leather, and wistful melancholy, brown is the color of academia. Most likely, you are a logical and pragmatic individual who is ruled more by your head than your heart. You have an inquisitive mind and an insatiable curiosity. Browns are great problem solvers. They gather all of the facts before coming to a timely and informed decision. You are intrigued easily and always find new ways to challenge your mind. Brown is an impartial and neutral color. Most likely, you know the difference between fact and opinion, and are open to many points of view.
Why scotto wants to correct his apnea.
1. – it might get rid of my migraines.
2. – I won’t be as tired
3. – less risk of stroke and high blood pressure
4- might actually lose weight
5-increase cognitive function. get the brain working more!
Even after using CPAP for an average of only four hours a night, patients are more alert, with improvements in memory, mood, concentration, and health. A 1997 study indicated that CPAP therapy may even reduce the risks of motor vehicle and domestic and work-related accidents associated with sleepiness. Improvement even in serious conditions such as hypertension and heart failure have been observed, although there are no well-designed studies as yet to indicate if any of these devices reduce heart problems or other disorders associated with sleep apnea.
gotta do it, no matter how stupid the thing looks/ feels, I guess
next weekend –
gaming with supers group on Saturday
everway group (successfully moved to Sundays)
and Sunday, planning on going to the Norton museum. http://www.norton.org
Going in for my next sleep study tomorrow night. Bah. Humbug, but good hooray, too.
Cpap mask will be on, they say it’s like sleeping in a wind tunnel.
Finally got insurance approval for another test, so hopefully, after this one, I’ll know if I can go under the knife and get patched up.
I’m not nervous, I just want to get it over with.
Well, went to the zoo today, and had a fun time. Took Robb along, as well as the Everway crew, sadly I did not manage to catch up with Dave, Cathi or Little Bro. Ideally, that’ll happen Tuesday night.
Had some lovely spaghetti for supper, and a cheese enchilada, rice & beans for lunch, much water, some sprite.
I cross-pollinated friends pretty successfully, I think. Robb Liked them, and I think they liked him, too. Whee! I love decompartmentalising folk.
after Zoo, hung out at the place, watched some Daria. The show has gone downhill since I’d last seen it (about 2 years ago) Not as funny, and was dealing with trust and friendship issues that I’m not over fond of.
I saw bats and frogs, said Hi to them for Mely. They were polite, but not as cool as the weird blue birds that were lurking around. I have no idea what sort of bird they were, but boxy, and had wacky single long feather Mohawk strands hanging down.
Many Many Flamingos.
*huge* tortoises, like 4 feet long, and about 500 lbs. You could pet ”em, and they were hug-worthy.
RAINY DAYS AND MONDAYS….
Hm. Too wet for the zoo…
maybe some other time…
pooties.
Got back form the everway game… and watching fight club.
Never did get around to lunch, but had supper, 1/2 of a mushroom & black olive pizza.
I need to start packing healthy food to eat.
I think I’m going to the Zoo tomorrow, and say hi to all the animals in jail. It’s been a loooong time since I’ve been to the zoo, but I was talking about one of my first zoo memories with a buddy, and I got a weird urge to go and see the lions. See if it brings anything odd out… I don’t think it will. I’ve got to ask Robby if he’d rather do Zoo than art museum…maybe art museum next weekend? I seem to have a stronger and more overpowering urge to go to the zoo.
this is where I’m headed – http://www.palmbeachzoo.org/ sooner or later.
Robb, maybe the little freaky monkey is a tamarin? http://www.palmbeachzoo.org/tamarin.htm
it’s freaky looking!
going to trundle off for lunch… see you kids in a while
I needs me some foodies!
Dean Martin 2- electric boogaloo
Powder your face with sunshine
Put on a great big smile
Make up your eyes with laughter
Folks will be laughing with you in a little while
Whistle a tune of gladness
Blue never was in style
The future’s brighter when hearts are lighter
So smile smile smile
Powder your face with sunshine
Put on a great big smile
Make up your eyes with laughter
Folks will be laughing with you in a little while
Whistle a tune of gladness
Blue never was in style
The future’s brighter when hearts are lighter
Future’s brighter, hearts are lighter
When you’re wearing a great big smile
Dean Martin…
Send me the pillow that you dream on
Don’t you know that I still care for you?
Send me the pillow that you dream on
So darling, I can dream on it, too
Each night while I’m sleeping oh, so lonely
I’ll share your love in dreams that once were true
Send me the pillow that you dream on
So darling, I can dream on it, too
Send me the pillow that you dream on
Maybe time will let our dreams come true
Send me the pillow that you dream on
So darling, I can dream on it, too
I’ve waited so long for you to write me
But just a memory’s all that’s left of you
Send me the pillow that you dream on
So darling, I can dream on it, too
So I can dream on it, too
addendum – My job isn’t in immediate danger, but it’s in the ‘might be’ zone.
Here’s some more info.
Scotto needs to look into finding another job. I was informed yesterday that the company I work for is moving a number of operations North, to Tampa, or removing them altogether. While that may sound like suck, it actually isn’t a terribly bad thing. It inspires me to get of my ass, polish my resume, and really find a job that I can be proud of, and probably be paid more for. There are a number of mail/database companies out here, but I don’t think that’s where I want to go, unless nothing else makes a strong impression on my search.
Things I’d like to do –
Research Librarian (paid to surf for data all day? hoody hoo!)
Teach Kids how to use the computer… although it seems that they have an innate grasp, these days.
Scientist with a science firm, sort of like Danny’s old Job at Geosyntec.
Things I’ll probably end up doing –
VB programming
SQL Programming
Webby stuff
Database management, MIS dept.
.333333332 – (brief intermission by Newt on the keypad)
What to do, what to do… maybe the classifieds or monster.com will set me right.
I am in a wicked good mood, though.
This could be my chance to go to Arizona, or the Carolinas. Seattle’s cool too, and I could poke around Robb’s old stomping grounds.
Say, some sneaky leftyrok added me to his friends list ! Thanks!
Welcome back my friends….
to the show that never ends.
Can I get a Good Morning?
Alleleu! The sun is shining, the cat is playing, the A/C is running, and I am ready for a new day.
Why such a good mood, heck, I don’t know. I’m not going to question it today.
Song running through my head this morning – more muppet stuff… those guys are permanently lodged in my skull, it seems.
If I Were
Kermit – “If I were…”
If I were a poet,
I would write a sonnet.
It would say “I love you.”
Your name would be upon it.
If I were a farmer,
I’d give you a bunny.
If I had a beehive,
You would get free honey.
Fa la la (many times)
If I were a baker,
You could have a cruller
If I were a painter,
Choose your favorite color.
If I had some diamonds,
I’d give you a few,
Anything to show you
How much I love you.
Fa la la, etc.
Did you guess my secret?
I am not a poet.
Couldn’t write a sonnet,
And I think you know it.
I am not a farmer,
Can’t give you a bunny.
I don’t have a beehive,
Sorry ’bout the honey.
Fa la la, etc.
I am not a baker,
Don’t know bread from batter.
And I am not a painter,
And it doesn’t matter.
I don’t need a present,
All I have to do
Is look at you to show you
How much I love you.
Fa la la, etc.
Godzilla!!!
