OK ... So I got a referral to see a urologist.
Only ... The wife is coming over tomorrow; and staying a few days.
I wasn't sure how long she'd be staying, if only one day or several;
so I put off calling for an appointment until tomorrow.
Gotta' keep my priorities straight.
OTOH, I'm feeling better tonight, even without taking the medicine the
doctor recommended to see if it helped (not cured) the bother of the
thing. So, I guess I'll see how well I sleep tonight first.
Right now I'm just glad she didn't come over for Easter, like I was
originally hoping she would; so we could have the HUGE get-together,
stuff everybody with food, and play cards 'til the wee small hours of
the morning. It would have been downright *miserable*; not just for
me, but for everybody.
The kid DID come over; but that was to bring back the computer I'd
just fixed for the SO. The SO was *pissed* because it didn't work.
Well, no ... The kid didn't plug the video-cable in the right socket.
It was a bit *tight* under there, and the kid couldn't make it fit.
So the kid tried the motherboard video output; which (of course) was
disabled because the PCIe card was in the machine.
GAAAAHHH!
I was *going* to fix a slice of ham and some yams to make it a bit
Eastery; but the kid mentioned having some really good chili-dogs the
other day; so I made those. Not so great.
Before I've used "Wolf Brand Chili" for hotdogs; and that WAS great.
This time I got some "Great Value" stuff from Wal-Mart ... and it
wasn't. Drat. Oh well, sometimes the bargain stuff is just as good;
and sometimes ....
This was one of the times NOT so good.
Not too hungry with the belly upset.
Fixed some chicken-soup.
That goes down fairly easy.
Maybe a slice of bread and peanut-butter to fill the gaps.
