"Slow Motion"

That's the way I've been doing everything for the past 24 hours.  Stand up slow, roll over slow, sit down slow, climb in the truck slow, etc, etc.

The problem is this stupid ongoing chest cold.  It's pretty damn hard to cough or sneeze in slow motion.

The discomfort that comes with every breath seemed to exacerbate my sleep problems as well, since Roo woke me up more than once just to tell me to start breathing!  Although I understand her reasoning in waking me, (she can't sleep worrying)  let me assure you that it's not a nice way to wake up!  It's pretty frightening actually!

But I did feel a bit better this afternoon, as the decision to try to remain active seemed to be the right one.  And although it's pretty tender again this evening, I feel a bit more optimistic than yesterday.

And although everything in my life is moving slow right now, my slothfulness pales in comparison to the "One Holy Catholic and Apostolic Church of Rome".  Right now there are a whole bunch of pompous old fuckers, half of who are gay, and a smaller percentage of who are pedophiles, sitting around Rome pissing away the faithfuls money, trying to decide how much they dare soften their sexist, homophobic, jargon such that they don't look like quite the hypocritical bunch of assholes they really are.  I can't believe that anyone can even take these people seriously.  They must all be Republicans!!

My favourite part of the whole circus is the accolades that Pope Frank gets for his wonderful heart warming comment, "who am I to judge?".  What hypocrisy!  The vicar of Christ, the representative of Jesus on Earth, gets bonus points for not judging???

God give me strength!!

But once I'm done my rant I don't really care anyway.  Like all things stupid, the catholic church will pass into oblivion eventually.  Besides I got bigger fish to fry.

Let me show you what I've been doing today.  Tuning up my new toy!


Or old toy that is.  I wanted this saw 30 years ago but couldn't afford it.  Finally!  Radial arm saws have gone the way of the dodo bird, but there's lots of used ones still out there.  I got the best of the lot.  One owner, and in mint condition!!  And the bonus.....a whole lot cheaper than 30 years ago!

  1. I'm glad you felt better this afternoon! Maybe consistent exercise is what you need afterall? There are worse addictions than exercise...

    I never would have guessed that machine is 30 years old.

    Love you!
