Medication

Published by under Personal

Today was my last day on the medication I was on for that infection. I can’t say that I’ll miss it, as it kept me more “regular” than ever. I was on AMOX/CLAV. Even though it’s a generic, it was still over $100 for 30 pills. Next time I’ll have to have Railwolf smuggle me […]

New Host

Published by under Site

Back to Work

Published by under Other,Personal,Site

Well IGN began publishing again today after the holiday break and I must admit it’s good to be back. Along with getting the new Dell PC, I moved my computer station to another room. I still haven’t gotten everything unpacked and sorted to where I want, so I’m really “out of it” right now. I […]
