92 degrees. That was the high today and it felt like it too. Summer might as well already be here, because these are definitely not springtime temperatures. Life in Southern California. It's still fantastic.
One of the three local area school districts is currently on spring break and traffic on the streets seemed to reflect it. The streets were nice. Traffic was minimal for much of the day. Things on the road should be nice for the next few weeks because of spring break. I figure that I'll enjoy the lack of traffic and reduction of cars on the road for as long as it lasts.
Work was business as usual today. As is the case on most Mondays, I try not to apply myself to much. Morie was out again today, though she is off every Monday. She has been out of the office since last Wednesday, dealing with a family situation. Her mother suffered a stroke a week ago. From what I understand, her mother is doing especially well and she is definitely on the mend. She started physical therapy on Thursday or Friday. I anticipate that Morie will be back in the office tomorrow, especially now that her mother is stable.
I passed another kidney stone last week, which I was able to retrieve from the bottom of that toilet, yellow water and all, and put away for safe keeping. This particular stone was a smooth one, which I will always appreciate because it didn't hurt as it coursed through my body, kidneys, bladder, and all. The ones that are jagged or pointed cause the most pain and are never the ones you want to ever have to deal with. I've passed two kidney stones before that caused me immense pain, including the first one I ever had. Both of those were just excruciating. Those two stones resulted in my having been laid up in bed and otherwise away from work for at least seven days each time. The pain medications they gave me were utterly amazing and worked very well, though still, I would prefer never to experience another painful kidney stone ever again.
That's all I have going on in my mundane life. The unseasonably hot temperatures. Work. Morie's mom suffering through a stroke. No traffic because of spring break. Passing another kidney stone.
Maybe I'll have something worthwhile to write about tomorrow? I don't know. I make no guarantees.
Probably not.
