Pre-Weekend Anticipation! in These Foolish Things
End of the workday and once again, like clockwork, I find myself unable to concentrate on computer work BS after 3:30. Of course, I have figured out a way (if I’m not in a meeting) to do constru...
The Reason(s) in These Foolish Things
I started an entry earlier so I could use up some nervous energy here at the office and I just deleted it because I couldn’t finish my thoughts. Now I’m back and it’s been another super busy day ...
Back to Reality in These Foolish Things

Quick Sidetrack to Get On Track in These Foolish Things

Medical Update Monday in These Foolish Things
Doc appointment with Dr. Jeff (my friend) went really well. We talked about the injury and my last scans I had and how the dissecting aneurysm is still there but right now it’s somewhat small - s...
Shelfscaping! in These Foolish Things
The cleaning frenzy continued today. I did some more decluttering of some storage boxes that I’d stowed under the console tables in my hallway (needed NONE of that stuff!) and I rearranged a bun...
Friday Night Float! in These Foolish Things

In an effort to keep my options open and stop obsessing about the Doc, I agreed to go on a date with this dude last Saturday. Name: The Showoff Introduction Platform: Hinge. This was my seco...
4th of July in These Foolish Things
Ooops. I realize that I’m supposed to do a Rate-a-Date today (in my mind that was going to be the entry I write today), but I don’t feel like it. It’s somewhere around 8:30 on the 4th of July ...
Early July Updates on Various in These Foolish Things

Finally! The Poop Scandal in These Foolish Things
I think this happened like two weeks ago now and I feel like it’s going to be anticlimactic, but there’s been a mad pooper on the loose in my office! I heard from a very reliable source of juicy...
A Ghost Returns! in These Foolish Things
Happy July (already!!)! I keep not writing about the Poop Scandal and other stuff, but now life keeps happening. Maybe I’ll dedicate July to a sort of NoJoMo (JuJoMo?!) and try to get a little e...
IMPLOSION! in These Foolish Things
I’m sitting at a coffee shop about a mile from my apartment waiting for the building across the street from my place to implode! The building’s management has been sending us information over t...
The Good Doctor in These Foolish Things

Short Skirt with Heels in These Foolish Things
I can’t catch up here! So much going on lately! I have a sex date with the doc tonight. I think I’ve turned this little thing into a fuck buddy situation and I’m not sure how I feel about it, bu...
I've Been Absent in These Foolish Things
I’m sorry I’ve been absent lately. I have a million things to write, but can’t seem to find the…what? Patience? To sit down and write it all out. I wonder if it’s the brain injury. I find it...
Bullets From a Plane in These Foolish Things
Guys, I’m currently on a plane headed to the supplier summit of the iconic company that I’m creating product for. I will admit that I am nervous about the fact that I currently have an unrupture...
RAD: NORT in These Foolish Things
Friday evening I hung out with a neighbor whom I’ve suddenly run into several times on the elevator. We live on the same floor. I’m not sure if this was an actual date or not, but it kinda felt...

To Clarify in These Foolish Things
It was Dr. D. After I dropped off the pet gifts. And after we had some dinner and a glass of wine. And it was really, really nice. I needed that in such a tremendous way. I don’t know what it me...

"Stay Away from Doctors" in These Foolish Things
The title of this entry is the last piece of advice my new neuroradiologist interventionist gave me at the end of our meeting today. He knows Dr. D…and he smiled when I mentioned that he was the...
Just in Case I Didn't Already Know in These Foolish Things
