Fucking Florida…
There is a rule that goes something like “Only date a woman who’s a little crazier than you can handle…”
I should start writing these down.

There has been some pressure in there, off and on, for a month+. The ringing (Tinnitus?) is starting to be a problem. I don’t want to go to the Doc-in-a Box walk in clinic and spend who knows how long in the waiting room, so I called the local clinic conglomerate to make an appointment. Wading through the options I finally get a live person on the line.
Me: I’d like to schedule and appt.
Voice: Do you have a primary care physician?
Me: No, I just need to see someone about an possible ear infection.
Voice: I’ll transfer you to dsjfhdifasdfidfi (garbled), they have a list of doctors currently accepting new patients.
Me: Wait, I’m not looking for a new…
She transferred me. Bitch.
Robo-Operator: Thank you for calling blah blah blah if this is an emergency hang up and dial 911 blah blah.
Me: Grumblefrakinshit
Robo-Operator: Press 1 for something or other. Press 2 for infernal medicine something else. Press 3 for who-the-fuck-cares….
Me: Grumblefuckpainintheassgrumble:
Robo-Operator: …Press 39 for…
Me: Goddamit!
And I hung up. Red took pity and called for me. In 3 minutes I had an appointment for tomorrow morning.
So pissed off right now…

Last week the boys and I have were dragging ass in the morning, the result of which is I was late to work too often.
I had to resort to an old parenting technique handed down from one generation to the next: I bribed ‘em with breakfast at McDonalds.
Not only was I on time to work, I even got a primo parking spot.
Did any of you watch our Presidente give his little speech?
Me neither. Dude’s credibility balance is so deep in the negative numbers if he told me Christie Brinkley was the hottest woman to ever walk the earth I would request she submit to an immediate dong check.

The creeping crud caught up with me this week. Snot flowed in gentle green waves from my nose and down the back of my throat. Usually I push through, sit at my desk blowing my nose and hacking. Not this time. A hearty “Fukkit” was wheezed and I stayed my ass home for two days.
Even though my voice sounds like I gargled with crushed glass, I’m feeling pretty good today.

The kid young man shows his mettle at the 01:45 mark…
Josh Elliott: Do you wish people would mess with you instead of Amber?
Bro (Without missing a beat): Yes.
Sis (Surprised?): You don’t have to do that.
Bro: Yes I do.
Keep up the good work, Ryan.

Amazon testing 'octocopter' package-delivery dronesNeed a delivery fast? Amazon Prime Air might someday get a package to you within 30 minutes, via octocopter. Jeff Bezos says so. |
A very cool idea, I can see food delivery drones following soon after, if they can work out the kinks;
Yup… fix those kinks and pass some laws. Oh, and don’t make the drones too smart or else…

I’m a computer guy. I know the rule “Backup, Backup, BACKUP”. I’ve preached it to many users. I’ve tsk, tsk’ed them when they accidently delete super important shit. Nine times out of ten I can recover something if not all of the missing file(s).
I just deleted something and I cannot recover it. 200 Mb of data… gone. Recovery has failed.
I’m feeling stupid.

I’ve neglected my little corner of the internet. Time for some sprucing up…
Get rid of the TV show panel; Lie To Me? In Plain Sight? I liked those show, now I’m sad. When will Netflix upload the last season of In Plain Sight already?
Removed some dead blogs and links to places I don’t visit anymore. I’ll add more someday.
Ugh… that background has to go.
~Hoozyrdady.
“I don’t work for people who want me to resign…”
But you DO work for the people who work for the people who want you to resign.
~Hoozyrdady.
… And to celebrate, I’m going to eat the hell out of some thick cut bacon this week.
~Hoozyrdady.
I’m not hacking up loogies and clearing my throat every five minutes. I must be on the mend.
#1 Son is feeling funky again. I blame the basketball shorts in 60 degree weather and not washing his water bottle after practice. As they say, “You can lead a horse to water, but you can’t make him think.”
~Hoozyrdady.
… I just look the part.
A bug has had it’s way with the Hooz Clan this past week, starting with the Wee One and creeping it’s way up the ranks to yours truly. Once again some grubby, besnotted daycare carpet cruiser infected my little angel with cooties. Little shits.
The boys and I have been home the last few days, hacking and moaning. By some miracle Red has stayed above it all.
On the upside I am about caught up on my TV watching. Sleepy Hollow is disappointing. Yeah, it’s about Ichabod Crane and the Headless Horseman waking up last week and carrying on where they left off. Shows like this require an amount of suspension of disbelief… but come on! The writers on Sleepy Hollow are pushing it. I won’t go into details in case you haven’t watched it, but let me say there was some eye-rolling on my part. Yet My boys love it, though. Maybe this aging gungeek isn’t in the target demographic.
Agents of Shield is more promising. A little too cutsie, but I’ll keep watching. What can I say… this is a Whedon household from way back: That sumbitch can do no wrong. I heard The Whedon made a surprise appearance at a Firefly convention in England. He and Jewel Staite shook their money makers into the early hours. I would have paid good money to see that first hand.
Haven is now on Netflix and Red is hooked.
Speaking of good looking wimmen –
Emily Rose, amIright?
So Red and I are powering through and will be up to speed before the first few episodes of season 4 exit Hulu.
Hoozyrdady.
Red: Oh, that Bastard! He hung himself…(the kidnapper guy from Ohio)
Hooz: Yup.
Red: Damn! I was hoping that jail justice would have been dished out on his sorry ass.
Hooz: He’s toasting his weenie in Hell now. I’m cool with that.
