I get bored with stuff like that. I really don't like television anymore and my drive to read has really gone down recently. Could have something to do with my declining vision. There's some decent content on YouTube these days but that's about it.

More HAF time?  :heyhey:

Yeah, me too. HAF demands sacrifice, mostly of your time...mostly. :grin:

It's not all that bad, especially when a familiar face... er, avatar shows up.

Yes, that's the great thing about small communities. It has its pluses.

JJ have you tried any of that CBD stuff?  All sorts of people within my sphere have claimed that it relieves all sorts of maladies.  Friend wife among them.   It is a bit pricey at this time but the dosage is very small in normal circumstances.  It is also being used for dogs that have some physical issues.

Cannabidiol?

I have not. Pain isn't the issue right now, though I deal with pain on a daily basis. I can handle pain that would cripple most people. At the moment it's extreme fatigue that has me grounded. Lifting, fast movement. All of that is exhausting. Even my walk today might've been a bit much.

Yes, Silver. It is all the rage here in the states.  It has become legal to buy and sell.  Not the same part of the canabis plant that can make you high.

That's interesting. I know that it's used to treat disorders such as epilepsy when other medications fail, but never heard of its use for chronic pain. :chin:

It's a bicyclic derivative of tetrahydrocannabinol (which is tricyclic).

Reminds me of a lousy translation I found in a Lehninger's Principals of Biochemistry textbook. They translated 'bicycle' into 'bicicleta' which is...

I just got me a nice bottle of wine and I have no one to share it with. I can't remember if that's a reason to be grumpy or a reason to be cheerful.

Depends on how you are drinking alone. Some do so very well but others are taken to a dark, dangerous place. I don't drink at all anymore.
