My alone time

With my wife shopping and the kid playing gamecube in another room, I'm alone with some time on my hands. I'm actually going to try and write this blog in one sitting, so here goes.

My friend and I were discussing the merits of a psa test and a digital exam.(this is for prostrates) This friend said a psa test was enough for detection and I say both are required. Truth be known he is shying away from having some doctor's finger stuck up his rear. This is not a comfortable situation for most men.
My argument was for 100% surety, both are required and besides he has 3 kids under the age of 11 and I think this is for more than ourselves at that point.
We agreed to disagree and he would get only a psa test as prostate problems don't run in his family.
Until this week!
His father was diagnosed with cancer of the prostate and he had surgery yesterday. I haven't talked to my buddy yet but I will soon. I hope he gets both test now!

I had to go and get my blood work done this morning. This was for everything, not just a psa test. I go to my doctors in 2 weeks for the results and a full physical. I am so much looking forward to that, but it's a day off work anyhow.

My parents are here visiting for the weekend, I mean visiting everyone. They lived in this area for their whole marriage(46 years) until last autumn, so they left a whole lifetime here as well.
As far a health goes, my father's torn achilles is healed and he has to go for a angiogram next month for a irregular heartbeat. He says he's had it for years, so it's little concern for him. All the medicine he is on for this heart thing is making him tired, which pisses him off, but he says he sleeps like a baby now every night. My mom is fine, which is really good to me.

Tomorrow is the 19th aniversary of the day I met my wife. Wow, I feel old! The only reason I remember that is because it the first of the month.
May had always been kind of weird for me. I have only been arrested once, in the month of May.(no conviction, thrown out) I've hurt myself badly at work twice in the month of May.(2 years apart) I met my wife and started dating her in May. I won a lawsuit in May and the list goes on.

Wow, I'm done this blog in one sitting.

Have a great weekend!

Too Long!

That last blog took me over a week to write. Interuptions and forgetfullness was the reason.
I forgot that I saved it as a draft, I thought I published it!
Sorry!

It's been one of those weeks, with work always taking up my time and my son's 11th birthday on Wednesday.
He had his cousins over then for dinner and today his buddies come over at 130.

Again, this took forever to write, as it is now Tuesday.

Well, I caught some sort of bug and now I'm working through it. I feel like crap! I didn't even go to hockey this evening, so according to my wife I must be sick.

Yesterday at work was my day from hell that I haven't had in a while and we also found out that we owe a whole bunch for income tax.(we can add that on to the list of excuses) That probably means that we won't go to far for a summer vacation, again adding to the list of excuses.

My son's birthday party went well and he was pleased. They went to a movie and I think that will be the last time he does that for his birthday. I was talking to a colleague at work and he took his kid to paint ball. I think we will go back to lazer wars or something like that, 11 year olds need some physical action.

Well I off to the couch for some R and R.

Saturday night

I'm just getting ready for bed and I thought I'd write a few things from the last couple of days.

Being alone doesn't bother me, but I have pretty much a social life involing couples or familes. I think I'm going to change that abit.

We watched all 3 Matrix movies this weekend. 1st one good, 2nd one alright and last one not very good. They ruined a good story line!

I've been watching this sex show while I type this. Why would anyone go on tv and talk about their sex problems? Is nothing sacred?

The couple in question are lesbians. It doesn't bother me abit, nor would it if it were a gay couple. My answer to that is, who cares?

I would also like to think that I'm not racist at all. Having said that, I still have to work on my ignorance of other cultures. It certainly can't hurt.

I'm having a full physical in 5 weeks and I'm a tad worried of what they may find. It's funny that I think that way, whatever happens, happens. And wouldn't it be better to find out what's wrong and try to fix it? I still worry alittle.

My main goal in the immediate future is to get 8 hours of sleep, just one night to start with. I think about that and it's what I want the most.
