still no flickr account
Maybe one day I will be able to host images again. Maybe I should just make a whole new account and hope it doesn't wind up nuked also. Anyways, on with the documentation of life.
Steak was on sale this week, so I ended up buying a bunch of it. I'm on a high-iron diet, and Kid loves steak, so it's a win-win situation. I have been experimenting with marinades.
I wrote more of my book this week. A significant amount. Maybe I will go ahead and post it at some point. I've seen a few places that allow for such a thing, that seem like a good road to commercialization.
I am having a high pain day today. But the past few days weren't so bad. That's good. I can do stuff. I ran 2 miles on the eliptical this morning. That is something. Then I came home and took my pain medication so I could do chores. Now I am just waiting for it to take effect. It has a delay of about 90 minutes, and a gradual onset. This is supposedly a good protection against addiction, since the relief is harder for the brain to associate directly with the pill. I personally think that my intense hatred for impaired judgment is enough of a protection against addiction, but I do appreciate the extra layer of defense. The feeling of not being in pain IS incredibly motivating.
I have been doing more with photoshop, not that I can prove it. I've also been doing more with baking and cooking. I adore making little treats, I just need people to eat them. There is probably some way to volunteer to make dishes for wakes or fundraisers or something. I should check at the local community center. That would be a fun gig.
