I&#8217;ve had this for a couple of days &#8211; might be a side effect of coming off the pain meds from my surgery &#8211; but I&#8217;ve got a weird chemical taste in my mouth.  It&#8217;s not horrible, but it&#8217;s persistent and nothing seems to get rid of it.<\/p>\n<div><\/div>\n<div>2. Found out that my next door neighbors had their vehicles broken into.  Well, sort of.  One had a window broken and the still turned on GPS stolen.  The other was left unlocked and tools were stolen out of it.<\/div>\n<div>My room-mate and I are substantially more careful than they are in general, but we talked a little about how we can be a little safer.    It&#8217;s not a bad neighborhood by any means, but even good neighborhoods can be vulnerable to opportunity.<\/div>\n<div><\/div>\n<div>3. One of my co-workers has been without email for about 6 days now.    His email is routed in a way that I&#8217;m pretty sure is unique to the entire campus &#8211; and I&#8217;m not sure why he just doesn&#8217;t do it like everyone else.  If I was without email for 6 days &#8211; involuntarily &#8211; I think I&#8217;d be pretty ticked off and looking for a solution.<\/div>\n<div><\/div>\n<div>4. I&#8217;ve been playing Final Fantasy 13 for a few days now.   It&#8217;s a good game  &#8211; I think, I&#8217;m only 21 hours into it &#8211; but strangely linear for a game like this.   The combat is fast paced and complex, but elements seem to drag or are overly simplified.   I&#8217;m enjoying it, but it&#8217;s really not what I expected.<\/div>\n<div><\/div>\n<div>5. One unpleasant side effect from my surgery that no one told me about beforehand is that the anesthesia inhibits normal bowel function afterwards.     I&#8217;ve managed &#8211; with difficulty &#8211; to go a couple of times since my surgery, but I&#8217;m essentially, well, full of it.<\/div>\n<div><\/div>\n<div>6. I did a full day of work yesterday and did okay &#8211; though I was pretty wiped out by the time the day ended.  I slept pretty well last night and seem to be doing okay today so far, but I&#8217;ll be more glad than usual when the week is done.<\/div>\n<div><\/div>\n<div>7. I go in to have the splints in my nose removed tomorrow &#8211; which will be a relief though I&#8217;ve been told the actual process is terrible.    Maybe I&#8217;ll get a heads up on what happened when I came out of the surgery &#8211; I&#8217;ve been told I was combative, but I don&#8217;t really know what that means.<\/div>\n<div><\/div>\n<div>8. Finally, the underside of my SoBe bottle cap told me yesterday &#8220;You&#8217;re so cool&#8221;.<\/div>\n<div><\/div>\n<div>The SoBe has spoken.<\/div>\n<div class=\"blogger-post-footer\"><img width='1' height='1' src='https:\/\/blogger.googleusercontent.com\/tracker\/6913097901389264887-3284057738434949699?l=thunderofwade.blogspot.com' alt='' \/><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>1.
