My albums are online! Please buy one - or all four - of them today!
Now consuming: a tall glass of ice cold Bulgarian-cultured buttermilk.
Haven't had the stuff in a while. My local store stopped carrying it. Found it at Sprouts while shopping for Super Bowl party delicacies.
It feels so decadently good going down. Mmmmm. Love it.

Dear President Biden:
I do not care about the balloons. Tell me about the balloons: don't tell me about the balloons. This is not remotely something that keeps me awake at night. I'm sure you have people that are handling this. I completely don't give even a tiny shit about the balloons.
Sincerely,
Sane, Rational Americans Everywhere

May you have a happy birthday, and many happy returns of the day!
Just did some prep for a Superb Owl party tomorrow. On the cutting board: cheeses. One was a merlot-infused something, another was a smoked gouda with bacon, and the last was a Havarti. Got 'em cubed and containered, ready to transport.
Still not prepped: a 7-year-old Quebec white cheddar. I'm debating on whether I should prep it here or do the fancy cutting at the party. Thoughts, CoSo?
Now drinking:
Health-Ade Kombucha,
Pink Lady Apple flavor.
Nom.
Urgh. My health is doing a little bit better as far as my swollen legs go, but now I've got doctors telling me I look "pale."
I saw my primary care physician yesterday and got the same "pale" treatment from him. I asked him what was up with that. He said it's probably due to the one underlying condition that hasn't been treated during all of this mess: my chronic anemia.
I've got a hematologist appointment this week to find out what my next step will be.

Anxiety be a real bitch…….
And withdrawal from gabapentin has me fucked!
I’m like double whammy here folks.
I lost it at therapy, followed by losing it at the doctors office, to which I was prescribed stuff to help with both anxiety and withdrawal.
Oh and the icing: I haven’t had cannabis in days!
😭😭😭😭😭😭
Birdsite has apparently smushed Tweetdeck, or at least the free version of it. This is going to be a dealbreaker for the last hangers-on.

RIP @CorreroM - I didn't know a lot but I knew enough. You were a good friend while I had the privilege of your aquaintance.
You will be missed and I wish I'd taken you up on some of your offers to go for a beer some time, some where.
Everyone I know who knew you, and those that I don't know, who knew you all say the same thing....
'WTF? He was a good man."

Finally got the lights back on after the ice storm in Austin.
Just had a bit of a scare. I'd been feeling "off" for a while, and things got bad enough for me to haul out the blood pressure cuff. The surprise result? 88/43. Thought I was going back to the hospital again. Fortunately, my BP was up to 106/55 a few minutes later. No ER for me, thank goodness.
I'm home from the hospital. Thanks for all the messages of support and album purchases while I was bedridden. I have Stage 3 Chronic Kidney Disease, per the hospital doctor. Got a kidney doctor appointment early next week.
Current caffeine consumption: hospital coffee, lotsa creamer, lotsa sugar. It gets the job done.

My swelling & redness in my legs has gone down a decent bit - not gone, but lessened. Still on antibiotics. Looking at a Thursday hospital discharge date. Would've been Wed. if not for the ice storm in the D/FW area.
Thanks to anyone who bought my music to cheer me up while I've been hospitalized. There's still time - https://leejackson1.bandcamp.com has my stuff. Much obliged!
I've been hospitalized since Thursday the 26th. Went to a Wound Care Clinic with horribly swollen legs w/ulcers. Doctor admitted me straight from his office. Since then, I've been diagnosed w/Peripheral Artery Disease. No ETA on how long I'm going to be in here.
