Is This the Real Life

Caught in a landslide
No escape from reality.

This is what's happening chez moi.  Our census at work has been pretty low recently, so I have been 'floating' to other facilities, or working in places other than my home base at Riverton.  I have spent a fair amount of time back at IMC.  It has been fun to see my old friends, and do surgeries I haven't seen in a long time.  But I have been there so often that I'm not special anymore; lots of people think I have come back permanently.  Whatever.  It's a good place, but I'm glad I'm not there full-time.  Not having to work evenings or holidays or take call shifts has made me soft.

1/31 This is where we used to live

This is from Tuesday, and please ignore the mess. It's just a typical day--Glenn Beck on the tele, noisy toys scattered all around, and Benji jumping up and down. I'm not sure why the boy loves to jump, but he has awesome leg muscles because of it.

2/1  On a typical day

I have been very good about cooking this week.  I know it's not a huge accomplishment, but I actually made a real dinner four nights this week; Allen cooked on Thursday, and we went out tonight.  In any case, while I was finished cooking on Tuesday, I walked into the living room, and this is what I found.

2/2  While you were sleeping

That was an incredibly cold day, so I had bundled up Benji with double layers, and a thick sweater in the morning. When I got home from work, he still had on the long-sleeves and the sweater, and shorts. Yeah, awesome.

I ran out of things to photograph in the daylight, so here's more random crap from around the house.  This is my new phone.  It's supposed to be a "Smart Phone," but without a data plan, it's not berry smart.  Even so, Sarah's phone pooped out on her, and I was using her extra phone, because of this incident.  So I gave her the Nokia phone back, and got this one (brand new!) off KSL classifieds for $120.  Not bad, eh?

2/3 A new phone

And I really couldn't think of anything for today, so here's a picture of my little friend.

2/4 "You might as well face it, you're addicted to . . ."

Oh, how I love me some diet coke.  But don't confuse it with "Coca Light," found in Europe.  That stuff's nasty.
