  • Hotel Kitchen Notes

    Hotel Kitchen Notes

    I need to make a note about the kitchenette in our hotel room. It’s big enough for Sena to cook a meal in, but small enough for me to knock the meal on the floor. The kitchen has a fridge with freezer, yet lettuce freezes in the fridge. We have really crunchy salads. It has…

  • Workout at the Hotel!

    Workout at the Hotel!

    We’re camping out in a hotel while our new house is being built. We tried out the exercise equipment. It has been tough to exercise what with all the chores of showing and selling the house, moving all our stuff into storage, and now adjusting to living in a hotel (which will be for a…

  • Getting Back Into Juggling Shape!

    Getting Back Into Juggling Shape!

    We’ve been so busy moving that I’ve laid off juggling for a while. I’m sore in every muscle! We’ve moved into a hotel for a couple of months while our new house is being built. I’ll get back into juggling shape soon!

  • Hotel Iowa

    Hotel Iowa

    Well, we’re in the next stage of relocation, which is the Hotel California-excuse me, I mean the Hotel Iowa, so to speak. We’re camping out a hotel while our house is under construction. We were up well after midnight moving before we got to the hotel. We had a Casey’s pizza for dinner. The movers…

  • Boxes Are Everything!

    Boxes Are Everything!

    As if you haven’t already guessed long before now, we’re moving. I don’t need to tell any of you what a happy, thrilling, fulfilling experience this is. Right. The added wrinkle this time is that we’re camping out in a hotel while our house is being built. The only reason you’ve seen any blog posts…

  • The Svengoolie Movie the Leech Woman and What About the Pineal Gland?

    The Svengoolie Movie the Leech Woman and What About the Pineal Gland?

    OK, so I watched the Svengoolie movie, “The Leech Woman” a couple of weeks ago and I think I missed the part where the June Talbot was told that the potion containing the pineal gland secretion and powdered flower parts entailed the requirement that the pineal gland secretion should come from a man. You can…

  • The United States Postal Service is in Code 101 Lockdown!

    The United States Postal Service is in Code 101 Lockdown!

    No matter what I do, the USPS Change of Address (COA) snafu team makes the situation worse. It reminds me of this scene in Men in Black 2 in which the MIB headquarters goes into something called Code 101 Lockdown. Agents J & K return to headquarters and Agent J fires a sort of space…

  • Take Out Wrenched Ankle

    Take Out Wrenched Ankle

    Early this month, I was reminded of the old Operation game (some of us remember the TV commercial) when I wrenched my left ankle. It was the lateral malleolus, to be anatomically correct about it. I was dismantling a bedstead. It’s kind of an old-fashioned piece and the headboard was pretty heavy. I was removing…

  • Annual Kickball Challenge Tonight: Psychiatry Residents vs Faculty

    Annual Kickball Challenge Tonight: Psychiatry Residents vs Faculty

    I almost forgot to announce the annual KickBall Challenge, which is tonight! This used to be called Matball, but is now called Kickball. It starts with pizza at 6 pm and then the barfing starts at 7 pm. Just kidding! Usually this event is marked by extreme heat and humidity, but I gather it may…

  • Go Fly a Kite Right Now!

    Go Fly a Kite Right Now!

    We got a couple of those ready-made kites the other day, took them out to Terry Trueblood Park and man did they fly! We used to fly kites you had to spend a little time and effort putting together back in the day. It was close to 90 degrees but we barely noticed. I remember…
