January 5, 2018 -- Three Months Until My Birthday

[Chris L]

A quick Daily lest we go a day without somebody posting one. This was literally the only non-political significance I could come up with for today and it's not really significant for anybody but me. But feel free to add any reasons why the day is significant for you -- like, you're freezing your tail off somewhere in the northern and eastern parts of the U.S. Here in California it's actually a bit on the warm side, but I wish I could teleport briefly into one of the areas that's experiencing record-breaking storms.

Then I'd teleport the hell out of those areas again. I miss snow and even cold, but I don't miss trying to drive a car across icy streets.

It is so cold here that while I'm at work I am wearing both my vest and suit coat.  When I go down to meet a plane in our unheated passenger loading bridges I might even put on my coat.  Normally I only wear the vest.  In summer I usually forgo the vest because I'm too warm wearing it.  I've also taken such drastic measures as zipping up my coat for the few minutes I'm outside, dashing from house to car or car into store.

I'm one day post-surgery! I went into hospital yesterday at noon for a repair to a right inguinal hernia, general anaesthetic and discharged at 6pm. Trying to avoid coughing and laughing but apart from a bit of discomfort I am feeling reasonably comfortable- not particularly smitten with the rather severe 50% pubic hair shaving, and dreading it growing back! Oh and apparently no weight lifting for the next 6 weeks; damn!

Get well soon, @Gordonb, and may you get back to weight-lifting as soon as possible.  
(Also, good luck with the pubic hair.)
