mdehnersI admit it. I LOVE Ruts. Esp. after my little Stroke back in the late 90's pretty much fried my Longterm Memory, Ruts keep me from forgetting things. So basically I'm all discombobulated this week with getting ready for my folk's 50th Wedding Anniversary Cruise. Getting Botanicals both Inside and Out so they can take care of themselves, dealing with the critters, packing and sorting, etc. BLAUGH!
Part is the critters. The 1st time we went on one of these things the lady that was supposed to didn't(she and her boyfiend actually showed up as we were unpacking....they thought we were retutning the next day...). If it hadn't been for my SIL just popping by to check on things the dogs would have been dead and Stormy very hungry. This person's done my folks a couple times before so she's Trustworthy but I worry.
I also admit that one of the reasons I don't like these things is...Pictures. I used to be a pretty decent looking guy butthanks to the damage the hiv virus AND the treatments for not only have I gained a lot of weight, I have one of the nasty(but considered harmless by the AMA)side effects of the antiretrovirals, "Bullethead". Not as common as "Protease Paunch"(which just makes you look like a trucker)or "Protease Hump"(which allows you to work as an Egor in any Mad Scientist's lair)it causes a hard fat to build around your neck eventually erasing the separation of shoulder and neck. At least I'm not alone. The author Clive Barker has had the same reaction to his Meds.
I admit it, I've become Vain. It's kind of funny because I never really made a big deal of looks, which is probably why the best looking folks around were always my friends. I treated them no different than I would someone...who looks like me now. If there's a l;esson there I'm not sure I want to know;>.
Back to Packing....
Cheers,
Pat
