Turns out I’m allergic to dust mites.

My month of health continues, tomorrow, full allergies panel which is something I’ve never done before. Going to be a long 3 hours. Should help me finally get control of seasonal allergies. So far: PCP Full blood panel MRI X-rays Dermatology Eye Dental Invisalign quote (insurance would be 50% off or …

@gruber actually, I took that out of context, here's the iPhone OS 2.0 quote from the Wired's liveblog from Steve: "98 percent are browsing the web on their iPhones. 94 percent using e-mail, 90 percent using text messaging, and 80 percent are using 10 or more features. "You …

@gruber I can't find the source but I remember in the iOS 2 / 3 days, Steve touted on stage that iPhone users have accessed 90% of the settings basically showing how simple it is to find and modify the iPhone to their preferences. I wonder that that percentage is now?

Despite my shoulder issues, I am happy to have put in a nice motorcycle gear order. I sold all of my gear last month save for one jacket. I know followers here probably know nothing about motorcycles but I made about $3,000 selling 20 garments. Then spent $3300 replacing them all with new stuff. …

Dermatology follow up, my first ever visit. One mole removed and sent off to testing and after having dandruff since I was 12 years old, I finally have a prescription cream that is supposed to eliminate my need to use any dandruff shampoos or facial moisturizer. Very worth while visit now that i …

From 2016 and until I moved to North Carolina in November, I've wanted to write this blog post not to vent or rant but to capture what this chapter of my life was like and I finally sat down and wrote it. It's not perfect and I was making edits until the last minute but it's done and I …

That stress of just hitting the publish button.

@lakelady My wife offered to fill in for me on our big trips :)

I'll be writing a full blog pos as to not muck up the Mastodon space for which I value those of you who follow me here and your attention but it's going to be a tough summer. I tried my damndest both last winter and this Winter to get surgery so my Summer wouldn't be interrupted and both …

@stammy Sorry to be a complainer. I enjoy your writing and was just curious. Many of my favorite sites have moved to excerpts only. It's a minimal inconvenience unless it's a blog with a lot of trackers & ads in which case I prefer the pure-RSS experience to clicking through. Your blog …

I created this visual aid representing how my surgery will impact my team at work. I do not own rights to any of these images used.

This is a photo of my right shoulder. Video coming soon.

@stammy do you have a full length RSS? Looks like it went excerpts only.

@stammy always appreciate your long form posts. I save and read them on planes.

Finally scheduled surgery for my shoulder.

Hello Monday. Sorry I didn't wish you all a great week 8 hours ago but this is going to be a super busy week. 5 doctor appointments, DMV visit, allergy season, friend visiting from new hampshire on Friday, two movies in theatres and of course, work.

Fantastic day, we left Charlotte, went north to: -Bunker Hill Covered Bridge (oldest standing in the area) -District 12 filming location from Hunger Games The Coffee Cup House...thousands of coffee cups -Blowing Rock tourist trap -Boone, NC for BBQ & Beers -Portion of Blue Ridge Parkway LONG day …

Finally received notice that fiber is available in my area. $20 cheaper than 1gig cable and 100x faster upload. Take my money.

@dpwnunder @marcoarment @gruber Speaking of the latest episode, RE: grinders, don't I feel smart for upgrading my 10 year old Virtuoso to Preciso Burrs just 6 months ago. Easy upgrade and DIY at home. Looking forward to gettin 10 more years out of my Virtuoso.

Mail.app, what are you up to?

@aruchizan@mastodon.social @gruber - thanks now I’m going through and holding random phones :P

@aruchizan@mastodon.social @gruber that and it’s just a pleasant device to hold and super grippy! Just grabbed mine for a feel test. I love the edges are soft and not rigid

@dotHTM That and a larger issue which is the glass-back repair costs continue to go up. I think it's $250 now to repair the back through Apple.

It's Friday, I was thinking of leaving work at 3PM and going down to Daytona for bike week but every time I go outside, Pollen overwhelms me and my head turns into a log. Going to just stay inside all weekend, deep clean and write.
