I had about 27 hours of clear breathing before a cold hit me – and now I’m fighting to keep a clear nose and I’m apparently snoring again. I’m hoping it passes soon, right now it’s taking more force to breathe out than it does to breathe in – which feels pretty weird.<\/p>\n

<\/div>\n
I’ve been busy here this morning, but feeling curiously out of sorts. Just kind of moderately irritated by little things. It doesn’t help that I’m waiting on a phone call to launch a site and I really need to hit the restroom. They are already a bit late and I’m hoping they call soon.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
(later)<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
Well, we launched the site and things went poorly – though while I was waiting to hear back from people about what was going on, I had plenty of time to go to the restroom. <\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
I had to raise my voice in my boss’s office – though not at my boss. I was trying to report in on the site launch and suddenly the room filled up with talking people. I finally raised my hands and my voice and proclaimed that I still had the floor. My boss backed me up and we finished up our discussion. I was still Mr. Cranky-pants most of the day though.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
In other news…<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
I shaved my face the night before my nose surgery and then didn’t shave again for over a week. When it was finally time – or some would say past time – to shave, my electric razor wasn’t up to the task. Which was a bummer – since it takes three weeks or more to get used to using it. I’d suspected that I wasn’t going to be able to adapt – it irritated the skin on my neck something fierce. And then switching back to a razor to get the job done means I’ve lost ground with the shaver. Might be time to clean it up real good and put it away for a while and just go back to using a razor.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
Back during the winter months I decided to try a new deodorant. I was starting to get a little concerned about the amount of chemicals I was putting on or in my body and thought taking aluminum out of the equation would be a good place to start. I switched to a mineral salt stick – you wet it with water, then apply. Simple. And effective during the winter months when I don’t sweat as much. Now that summer time had rolled around, it’s less effective. Primarily on the right side for some reason. So, this morning I switched back – at least for the next few months. <\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
Finally, in totally unrelated news, I just watched a trailer for Scott Pilgrim vs. The World. Looks like a fun movie, but before I could watch the trailer, I had to sit through a commercial for Outback steakhouse. Isn’t a trailer a commercial for a movie? So, did I have to watch a commercial in order to watch another commercial? Is that what happened?<\/div>\n
