Something Negative

[Fox 6]

Power has been out for a good long while. : (

Still sitting in the dark.

Typhoid and I lost in the first round of the playoffs to Minnesota in NHL 10.

This is the second consecutive season this has happened.

Me and my buddy had a band, that fell apart, and then we couldn't ever agree on who to let in to fill spots. We parted ways amicably, and are still good friends.
He started drumming with a new band.
That new band made it to the top 20 for the Fox Seeds competition.
Seeds made Matthew Good, Nickelback, Bif Naked, Three Days Grace and bands like that popular, and got them discovered.
Dangit.
I'm still ridiculously happy for him though.

I had a job interview a week ago. They said they would contact me by the end of the week. It's Friday 16.00, nothing yet. Is that bad news?
So maybe on Monday.

Also, this room (not mine) smells of old socks.

They're talking about the oil coming up at a pressure so great that they have no means of stopping it. I heard around 70,000psi is pushing it up. They're talking nuclear device to cauterize the wound. If it doesn't work it could be a mega catastrophe, much larger than it is already. The media's been downplaying the amount of oil being released from the beginning.
The amount of toxic chemicals being released into the air is also of alarm. There's talk that young children and pregnant women especially should get out of the area.

All this is gathered from an Alex Jones radio interview with an ex oil executive spilling the real details. dunno how seriously to take it, but the air tests that they're coming back with are dangerously high, confirming that there's a toxicity load that the people aren't being warned about.

I was in the hospital for three days after having a very bad allergic reaction to an antibiotic called Bactrim. It's a sulfa based drug, and I was using it to treat a possible MRSA lesion, which came back as negative later on. I had a massive headache, back ache, and an extremely high fever of 104.3 on Sunday, and I felt just as shitty on Monday. Then Monday evening I started to break out in hives, and it was so bad on Tuesday at 5 AM that I had to go to the hospital. They put me on steroids and a saline IV until I left, and now I'm taking smaller doses of steroids at home until the rash subsides. What's worse is that I'm in an area of Philly where a lot of power outages occurred yesterday at around 3PM, and it hadn't come back yet once I got home at 1:00 PM today. So that was more hell to deal with. The power is back on now though, and I'm making a recovery, so hopefully all will be back to normal soon. I missed work all week, and I can't work next week since I can't be out in the sun, so I guess I'm going to miss a paycheck.

My mother and brother are on their way to the vet with 1 of our cats... to put her down. She's old, sick and in pain.
Sucks so hard to say goodbye to your pet, knowing you'll never see her again.

I wish I knew everyone responsible for the creation of Internet Explorer so I could hunt them down, drag them into the street, and shoot them.
