1. What are your plans for December? Fun medical stuff. Took the wife to the ER Wednesday because her tongue was swollen and she had trouble talking. She was discharged Thursday after IV antibiotics. Went home with 10 days of antibiotics. She has an odd infection. Today was my annual brain MRI, tomorrow Covid test, then quarantine until Tuesday when I will have a biopsy and spend the night at the hospital. Then specialist appointments to get the results. The rest of the month I just want to chill. I don’t need this kind of excitement.
2. How do you celebrate your wins/success? Usually starts with “Woot! Woot!”. Then whatever seems appropriate and affordable.
3. Are holiday movies only for the holiday season? I prefer to watch them during the holiday season, however I started watching them in October. Usually I don’t start until Thanksgiving. I’m already complaining about how often The Hallmark Channel is repeating the same movie several times a week.
4. What would you consider a waste of money? The amount DirecTv and AT&T charge monthly for tv and internet. This month it went up $8. Why? I didn’t get more tv or internet.
5. What do you like to eat for breakfast? Every now and then grits with either cheese and hot sauce or butter and hot sauce. Denver omelette, but no more because I’m vegetarian. So, Spinach and Feta omelette.
6. How do you feel about poetry? It’s ok. I can’t write any myself.
7. Are you shy? Used to be.
8. Do you take time to reflect on your goals? Pass.
9. Something you are curious to know more about? Pass.
10. Something that makes you feel fancy? Dressing up.
11. How you’re still handling the pandemic? Not well. The new strain has me very concerned and I’ve been to the hospital 3 times this week, will be there Saturday and Tuesday, Wednesday. I was in the ER Wednesday for over 12 hours with my wife. Her tongue was so swollen she couldn’t talk. They had people staying in the hallways waiting for rooms. A nurse told my wife they had 25 people waiting 2 days for rooms. Supposedly Covid isn’t bad here, but what are all these people in the ER for?
12. A close friend you’ve never met in person. One of the first women who I chatted with on AOL or MSN chat after I came out to myself. We had once started to make plans to meet, but something came up. She lives in NY and lived for awhile lived in Berlin.
13. Do you get in on trends early or later? I don’t do trends. I buy what I like that I can afford.
14. What is something you do on a regular basis? Grocery shopping.
15. Do you enjoy spending time with family? That depends on what family members we’re talking about. The ones I don’t enjoy spending time with: The relative who wrote a book. It was to be a memoir that included loss and being “saved” by “her” God. (Only “her” God is the right God.) She also left out half her family in her book, as if they didn’t exist. She also talks in this “I’m better than you tone.” My brother-in-law that treats my sister badly. My step-mother-in-law who treats my father-in-law badly. Once she refused to call for an ambulance when he had very low blood sugar. All she kept saying in her fake southern drawl was “well I don’t know what to do”. My wife was on the phone telling her to dial 911 and she refused. She also ruined every one of our wedding photos that she was in. She’s got a nasty resting b***h face. I very much enjoy spending time with my immediate family and the friends that have become family.
