T Minus 24 and Counting...

Well ladies and gents, come this time tomorrow, I will be getting prepped to go under the knife. They tell me that my leg pain will stop immediately and I will notice the difference immediately as well. They claim that I will be able to walk a block and up a flight of stairs post op... and that I will be sore for the first couple of weeks because the are cutting through muscle and bone... there are certain activities that I have to refrain from for no less than three weeks, but I should try to walk at least a block a day to help the healing process... the more activity I have, the faster I am suppose to heal.

In no way am I expecting to suffer the way that I did for the Gastric Bypass, or wish death upon myself for wonder what in the hell did I do to my body and why the hell for, for the first two weeks post op... If I survived that, I can survive this piddly back surgery...People keep asking me if I am scared or worried... They weren't there 8 years ago when I thought I wasn't coming off that table alive... this is a cake walk by comparison... sure, there are lots of risks, but I am in a hell of a better place mentally and physically... I am happier than I have ever been, and I am about to be pain diminished... and hopefully morphine free... I look forward to bike riding, geocaching, and learning how to ballroom dance... this is only going to open a new chapter in Silverfox's biography... and I am going to love it... and I think the kids will too...

Obama Nation [props to Ringo for the title]

Well, last night's results being called as soon as the polls were closed in California really disgusted me as the results had not even been called in from the polling stations before they declared Obama the next president and all I can say is that I am really disgusted with the voters of our country. I have no problem if the voters supported his platform.. but what exactly was his platform... he was explicitly VAGUE in everything he said... he ran on a platform of change and blissful ignorance, and if he turns this nation into the Socialist country that he implies that he wants, it is time for revolution.

Bush ran this country into the ground. He and his Oil field buddies milking the economy by raising gas prices and throwing the system out of balance raising the cost of living across the board. This just pushed the envelope and then people were unable to afford their mortgages pushing this country into the downward spiral and headed toward the repeat depression we are looking at today. A little known tid bit is that the safe guards that were placed on the banking institutions to keep the depression from ever happening again were removed by a legal team during the 90's... can you guess who was on that legal team... your new president elect... OBAMA...

And on the local frontier, for people to elect Jefferson, a known Crook, is beyond me. This is a man that took National Guard from saving lives during Katrina to go to his home to get cash that he had stashed in his freezer. That is the kind of individual that these people put back in office. So, I don't doubt that there are people who just voted for Obama for his skin tone. I heard radio interviews of individuals that thought that Palin was Obama's running mate. If these are the individuals that voted for him, well, you get what you deserve...

But, I do say this to Mr. Man... You promise change... you better bring it... I have known your type before, and I have no faith in empty promises... you deny half of your heritage and claim only the part that will gain you the notarity that brings you the fame that got you in this office.. but if you fail, you will be the biggest joke of your race... it is only a matter of time before the first black comedian associates the N~ word with the White House and it will disgrace the Nation...

Multi-Tasking

Most of my friends know by now that I am a Fiend for Rock Band. Well, my instruments of choice are vocals and guitar, and a while back, my friend Dave challenged me to do both at once. During my Rock Band Halo Fest, one of my attendees belted out Aqualung while playing the guitar and impressed the entire house while doing so. So, I finally accepted the challenge, and I must say that I impressed myself with my skills while doing so. I was able to complete vocals on expert and bass guitar on medium while getting 4 stars but not topping my high score as photoed here on my first attempt with the vocals on hard. This encouraged Rob to do the same, but we didn't get to do much as the munchkins demanded that we include them in our play time. So, this seems to be a new application to our game system... we shall have to issue the challenge to others ...

Rock On!!!

As I get older I am starting to feel Dingy...

My Cell Phone only allows for 6 Alarms in the day and I have a need for so many more. I have Three Medication Reminders Programed into the phone throughout the day already, two for me and one for my son. And then there are reminders for the schoolbus and when to pick up my son from school, but seriously, what if I have something special to do. I am completely out of luck.

This morning, I checked my alarm clock, and my alarm went off during the night for me to take my medication , but when I checked my pill case, my pills were still there. So, I guess, I woke up, and took the wrong pills in the middle of the night, which would explain why I was hurting this morning.

So, yes, the dingyness has gotten the best of me... but I am not going to let it get me down... Not counting today, I have 5 days till the back surgery, and I am excited. The possability of no more back pain and getting fixed has me happy... not to mention that I have lost 18 lbs since Gustov...

Anyways, I have to get to work and start cooking dinner... mmmm Steak....

National Blog Posting Month....

Well, I have decided to give this a shot, and this first post is a short one because I have to beat the deadline to post today. Frustrated, I didn't realize that I already have a password for the Ning network, so I attempted to register and register over and over again and again. Yes, I am such a ditz.

November is the month of 'Thanksgiving' which I being part Native American begrudgingly call Turkey day. As Turkey day approaches, I will reveal my back story of why I refer to it as Turkey Day, but I will reflect on the things that I am thankful for in my life too. I have worked hard for what I have earned and do live a privileged life because of it. I am loved and I am lucky to be loved by such a wonderful man and two beautiful sons. So NaBloPoMo, you will meet me, and my family this month. Welcome to my world.
