Being sick ....

Haven't written anything in a few days and I blame it on being really ..... REALLY ..... sick. No, it's not the H1N1 flu ... it is definitely the grandmother of all colds. Been sick for 6 days now .... my wife has it as well, in fact, she gave it to me (I love sharing everything with ya sweetie but this I coulda done without lol ... ) ..... at any rate, we ended up in the emergency room the other night at about 2.30 in the morning because she couldn't breathe and the coughing was killing both of us. They gave us some cough medicine with codeine in it and a nebulizer treatment. Which btw, is a funny story if you'd been there because we both had these silly looking plastic tubes hanging out of our mouths and the young attractive admissions girl walked in and told us how funny we looked sitting there side by side with those things hanging out of our mouths ... lol .....

I still have this cold, it's probably one of the worst I've ever had, but I decided to try a different plan of attack against it tonight. I'm going to try and drink it into submission. * falls off chair laughing *

That will either work or I won't care. ;)

Okay, onto the news .... that scum who killed the anchorwoman got a life sentence instead of death. Excuse me? We have to house and feed this waste of human flesh for the rest of his life?? Hopefully someone will save us a lot of expense while he's inside. Might sound cold but that's how I feel. Some people do not deserve to continue breathing and this guy is one.

Lots of guys taking out their wives and kids and themselves in today's economy. What's up with that? There are always ways out other than death. One just has to work hard in finding them. I've tried to picture myself walking into our bedroom with a gun, firing it and splattering my soul mate's brains all over the wall, then turning it on myself and removing my consciousness from the planet (simply as a mental exercise to try and understand where they're coming from) and I just can't do it. I can't fathom the mental processes that goes on in these people's brains.

Ya know, I post a lot of news on my site and probably 90% or more deals with death and destruction and I've thought about stopping but I can't. At times, I'll post something horrible, then just break down and cry. Yea, a man who cries, I'm not ashamed of it. Anyone who doesn't shed tears for the state of mankind isn't human.

Just a random thought .... the Supreme Court refused to hear the lawsuit against the Washington Redskins that says their name is offensive. Thank you Supreme Court. Though the reasons you gave aren't what I'd hoped I'm really sick and tired of this 'political correctness' crap. Get a life people. Instead of worrying about what a football team calls themselves, why don't you try worrying about how many children die everyday from hunger or neglect or abuse in this world? Or how many homeless people there are. Or how are natural resources are being eaten up at a frightening rate. Or how cancer takes the lives of millions. Or any other number of causes that really mean something. You political correctness people make me want to vomit.

I guess that's enough for tonight. It's getting late. Of course, being retired, does that really have any meaning? ;)
