Let’s see. What to write about today? Well I made it to work. That’s a good thing. Snowstorm wasn’t as bad as predicted. I swear weather forecasters seem to dwell on doom and gloom. Today, three inches of snow is considered a “significant accumulation” When I grew up nobody got excited unless it was over a foot.

I’ve written a few stories over the last week or so and they’re getting some good feedback. I like feedback. I like to know how people react to what I write, good or bad. It helps me judge the caliber of my talent…or lack thereof. It’s also a form of recognition and we all like recognition…especially when it’s good. And it helps me polish and hone my skills. So keep the feedback coming folks.

For those of you interested, the Meniere’s, for the moment, seems under control with medication. Problem is I can only take the one med for 6 days and I’m on day number 3. What happens then? Guess I’ll find out Tuesday when I see the Doc.

Tomorrow I’m going to go buy myself a Christmas present, a new toy for hunting, a crossbow. I have always wanted one but refused to buy it until I could actually use it for hunting. It’s been a long time since I’ve bought myself a new toy. Of course, this will be on the lay-a-way plan, but as long as I have it in time to practice for next season, I don’t care.

No epiphanies or revelations today, so as Dr. Sidney Friedman would say. “Ladies and Gentlemen, take my advice, pull down your pants and slide on the ice.”
