Eye care corneal sub-specialist appointment for corneal examination scheduled two months from now. Talking about a doctor having a busy schedule! They say for me to block out two hours for the exam. Was really hoping to get in much sooner than that.

Books and ethical quandary
A couple of weeks ago, BFF Rick and I were talking about the books we’ve been reading. I’m not sure if he reads at many as I do, but I respect his opinion on books. He indicated he had really enjoyed “Killing Lincoln” by Bill O’Reilly. I have just a little bit of animosity toward […]
Lunch with Rick and Chocolates
Had lunch with BFF Rick yesterday. We ate, at his suggestion, at a new place called “Shake Shack”, supposedly known for their awesome burgers. Huh. Wasn’t impressed. Later on, we walked around MOA, getting in our ten mile hike, like usual (jk), and of course, we walked past Lindt Chocolatiers. They were having a sale […]

I came across this “book” called: “300 writing prompts” First prompt: What’s your favorite way to spend a lazy day? Totally random page opening: if you had an opportunity to write as a […]
Razor shopping
Over the 40 plus years I’ve been shaving, I have alternated between replaceable cartridge blade razors and electric/rechargeable razors. The majority of time has been using the replaceable cartridge kind. I’ve probably bought at least 3, and perhaps as many as 4 or 5 electric razors in those forty years. Allways, after a period of […]
Child Theme – things to do
Change the gray background to white, so that the blog entry seems to embedded into the background, instead of floating on top of it. This was mostly done, after the posting of this entry. There are some thin borders, which might have to do with the “breadcrumb” area, as well as the “content” area. Ok, […]
