Today Is The National Day of Reason

And do we ever need it. Reason and critical thinking seem to be vanishing in today’s America. Fortunately, there are still those whose brains haven’t totally been fried by the crap that’s being put out there. Here’s a link:

Oh, joy.

Turns out I may not have whatever they thought I have, and I have to now go to a rheumatologist.  My sed rate has gone back to normal, so I should be pain-free.  Is that hyphenated?  I don’t know.  But since I’m not pain-free, and had to up the Prednisone again, something else must be going on.  AND, (there’s always an ‘and’, or a ‘but’, isn’t there?) I may have to see an endocrinologist to figure out what’s going on with the potassium levels.  Well, I’ve been pretty healthy most of my life, so I guess I can’t complain.  But sheesh, I cannot catch a break.  Still having minor vertigo since I woke up Wednesday, but doctor says it could be caused by numerous things and to see if the Prednisone helps.  So far, not.

On the other hand, I reset my wireless modem to WEP, which is safer, and now I cannot connect my Roku to it.  I am NOT going back to cable.  I hate Comcast.  I don’t watch much tv anyway, but damn, why don’t things just work?  Why, I ask you?  Oh, you haven’t got a clue either?  Oh, well.  Later.
