I just had a discussion with a co worker about odd words we still use in our normal speech...


When is the last time you DIALED the phone (or saw a phone with a dial on it)? ?


When is that last time you were able to TURN the channel or volume up on the TV?

I had some Papa Murphy's stuffed all-meat pizza and a couple Session Black Lagers for supper.


I'm on vacation tomorrow. So far the itinerary is checking out District 9 at the local cine for the early matinee; sushi for lunch at Sushi Hana; work on a couple songs for my band audition next week (Immigrant Song, Magic Man, and Rock Around the Clock); spend some quality time on the couch with Harley, the Black Lab from Hell...


Dang, my life is good. biggrin.gif

Wow, my sinusitis went from 2 (percolating for some time without ill effects) to 60 yesterday.


I had a 104 F (40 C) fever.


Figured I should go to the doc.


Ended up walking almost 1 km there, supported by the wife. facepalm.gif


Got meds. Apparently one is a serious antibiotic.


I'm down to 99.2 F now. thumb.gif

Yeah. Last night kind of sucked. Eat a spoonful of some semi-soup-like rice and chicken, fall asleep...eat another spoonful...wash, rinse repeat.


Massive headache last night, too.


I hate the chills. mad.gif

That doesn't sound like a bad idea though!


If it's sinuses have you tried the hot water trick?

Hot water trick?


I have tried inhaling vapors from a steaming pot of water with raw salt, with a blanket over my head to keep the vapors in, per my MIL's suggestion. That didn't work so well, takes too long, is generally unpleasant.


I rely on my sinus rinse bottle, which actually squirts warm (not hot!) salt + soda bicarbonate up my nose. That helps greatly, but is not sufficient.


A large part of the problem is a deviated septum.
