Happy Thanksgiving (The Canadian version)

9/10/05

Well here I am at Steph uncle Rob (Steph's dad's brothers) house and it has been a blast.

I wasn't feeling great and unsure how I'd feel while I was here but really other than a few coughs, chest blaws I feel great.

We got picked up and on the car ride down I was felling a little shy and awkward, by the end of the night I felt like a member of the family.

Dinner was great; I'm amazed how great a cook Steph's aunt is

Shortly after dinner I had a great smoke session (cigars) with her uncle.

He was so easy, and I think we have a lot in common. I'm not talking about life but belief and outlook on life.

He was been through a lot in the last few years and you can tell that the struggle has made him a better person.

It was great to have a cigar; it has been a long time.

I'm not sure why Steph parents have suggested that Steph not call them. They are great people.

I got a new jerk sauce recipe from aunt L.

I had a great time tonight and hopefully I can repay them with a delicious meal of my own when my kitchen is finally finished.

Steph aunt for some reason felt compelled to tell us what channel Sex TV is.

I got to meet Steph's famous Grandma. She was just as good in person as she was on the phone. She is really a crazy awesome person.

The two kids are great too; both are smart, funny, and intelligent.

Lastly their dog Marley is just adorable. He is part poodle part some other small dog.

He is just so cute and thinks he's human. He is very arguably one of the best dogs I have ever seen, and a total attention whore.

I'm felling a lot better today but still the odd chill and snotty nose, but other than a cough when I laugh I feel almost normal.

Well I should probably head to bed.

Another funny thing was Uncle Robert calling me Tim. It reminded me of my alter ego - Timothy Ruden Dooley III.

 

Athena is back home with us

8-10-05

We got Athena's ashes and paw print today.

It was a rather sad moment and while I didn't cry I was close to.

I went to take pictures but my camera batteries died before I could.

I still have to fire her paw print and draw on it with her name and stuff.

Yay Athena is back home with us!!

I'm starting to feel a little better; my temp this morning was 87.5 which is almost normal.

My ears are still really bothering me, and I can add cranberry juice to the list of things I can eat very small amounts of.

I hate being sick, and Steph told me that I am the grumpiest patient she has ever had.

I pointed out that she doesn't wake up her clients at work to ask them if her shit is normal or if she has legionnaire’s disease.

I still don't feel like doing much other than sleeping. I'm going to take a nap.
.

With neither Steph or I being artists, I'm wondering what to do with the paw print.

I'm thinking just put a hole in it and when it is done use a stencil to put her name and date.

I am going to put it on her urn, and then perhaps at Christmas on our tree but probably not.

I'm feeling a little more mentally better and a lot more physically better.

Still a wonderful snotty nose, sore head and upper chest, throat, eyes but I think my fever is now totally gone.

A day or two more I think yay!

Thankfully I'll be able to watch the leaf game tonight but I probably won't be exercising like I want/need to.

 

Fever of 101 Ferenheight

7-10-05

Well I have been sick for more than a full day now and the last temp reading was 101 F.

I don't want to dwell on it so I'll write on other things.

I can't wait for my new palm, I'll be able to surf the net from up here while I'm sick in bed.

Steph has set a date to become baptized a Mormon. I really didn't think she wanted too, and really think that she gave into pressure and smooth talking.

I never will be one simply because there are a few core issues I just can’t see their view on. Wow good English.

I challenged her on a few religious issues and she seemed hesitant to say yes. She just seems to think it is a giant social club.

Her period is gone.

Did you know that I love cognac and cigars two things I can no longer really have.

I think that diabetic ice cream is better than regular ice cram and it makes my throat feel good.

We went and saw Steph's Dr the other day and I'm convinced he's sexist.

Steph went three times in 6 weeks and was dismissed each time.

I went last time and he didn't pay attention to her at all, and did everything I requested and more, even requested emergency tests.

We haven't heard back yet, and see her doctor on October Wednesday.

Her Dr also handed all the test reqresuicions to me and not her.

Steph is doing a little better now. She can not be alone for too long or she gets scared and panics.

She also is able to go do things on her own again but tends to panic a little.

As long as she is on her clananzapanza she is okay and not nearly as obsessive about her body. Hopefully in a while we can get her off it all together.

I finally broke down and bought Pandora tomorrow. It is quite a fun game and nowhere nearly as hard as stolen which is another really fun but impossible game.
