Maybe I am particularly a grouch as of late, but dabbling in alcohol will not fix that problem.

That's very true, so sayeth the man two years sober 8)

Two years, already!?

I drove home from work last night in my underwear.
Made me kinda grumpy. Luckily I didn't need tip stop for anything along the way.

Sorry Jumbo, not that exciting. I work as a diesel tech and our uniform company shorted me on pants. I didn't want to wear dirtys home so I did what was necessary. Ha.

Well, for some reason I find that dissapointing... not sure why.

Came home from work to a letter from my rheumatologist. He is retiring in June. My last appointment with him is in April. Fortunately, it looks like the other two rheumatologists in that practice might have room for more patients.

I heard on the news that a bill for vouchers has passed 'further than one ever has' on my state recently. That got me ranting, in front of my parents!

How dare these private schools demand to be private and free from the government, and then clamor for public funding through sneaky ways. You wanted no government, you want to not be held to standards of nondiscrimination, teaching science, etc. so... You do not get my taxed money in any way shape or form.

I'm going to work on Saturday. Very long tedious hours.

I'm not looking forward to it at all.  :sigh:

I was awake most of the night because we had a pretty hardcore storm come through. The power blinked off at least twice that I remember - didn't have the courtesy to just stay off so I kept waking up when the bedroom tv turned back on by itself. Then it started thundering, loudly, for over an hour. And one of the dogs was freaking out the entire time because there's a thing in the house that beeps when it turns off. Her rendition of "freaking out" is going to the kitchen, which the bedroom is off of, and endlessly circling the island on the hardwood floor. It's like NASCAR but with two of the coconut guy from Monty Python. I want to stab things.

Oh yeah, we got that too. Wind was freakishly loud. Luckily didn't lose any power, but my cat was definitely freaked too.

Yup, and it just went on forever. I think it started around 11PM and finally wound down around 5AM here.

I suppose I could have gotten up and switched the dogs so coconut NASCAR was crated, but I was so out of it I just ended up yelling variations of "fucking lie down you cunt!" While trying not to sound mad and scare her more. She probably would've circled in the crate anyway...

We got hit with a huge storm as well, fortunately the areas hit with the most snow accumulation are north of us. Here in my city we only received a few inches, but 30-60 minutes drive north and they have up to a foot.

Anyway the boss closed the office today, and is letting us work from home which is extremely nice,...except I loss a filling in one of my molars, and my tooth/jaw is killing me.
I am leaving now to go see the dentist.
I almost hate dentists as much as I do nuns...and kats. Well not hate, more like dislike, they give me anxiety attacks.

I need spoons for this.

Got fined £100 today. Got a phone call if I could go meet someone on the other side of town, walked to the tram station and one was pulling up so I jumped on. Got my phone out to pay on the app and prior to paying the inspectors jumped on and came to me first. Ah well but that is the most expensive three stop journey I have ever been on.

That's ridiculous. I'd appeal it!
