Ready for a rest

My blood tests this week were a little down in key categories such ans White Blood Cells and Red Blood Cells and Hemoglobin. My platelets improved just slightly.

Ironically, I have developed a mouth sore to go with my dry mouth. We have to work on getting those platelets up as well as the red blood cells particularly. I also have developed a "Unilateral Ear Infection." You would think that there might be a more bipartisan approach to such things.

I am glad to get to this evening as it is the end of a very busy period for me.  Particularly, I have had very full days for six days straight and I have been at the club every day since January 12. I will be glad to get a few good nights of sleep.

I had an interesting thing happen this past week. To frame it, I will tell you that I used to drive by a shoe store on my way to work. They regularly advertised a Giant Shoe Sale. My friend Mike expressed surprise that there were that many giants looking for shoes.

Well, we saw a sign that said "Manatee Viewing Area." Someone expressed surprise that there was an area in Manatee County that had a view. I pointed out that it was likely an area to view Manatees, but what do I know.

I continue to do a chapter synopsis of the book I am reading for the research manager each evening. One evening, I simply said "period." I was hoping that the research manager would think that I had read nothing, but she called me on it and I still had to give a report. A few times, I make up a chapter to see if the research manager is listening, but she usually is.

That's it for tonight.

Thanks for your interest and support. The kickstarter.com thing is growing gradually. Red Shirts and Rubber Duckies may yet see the light of day.
