Any word on the Captcha? It drives me nuts. The typing of the street numbers of a while back seems like a dream compared to the two words.

Well, I tried. I got mixed results. I made it for several hours without medication, then I woke up hacking up a lung and had to take the medication. On the bright side, I only had to do that once, not twice like it's usually been. I did cough on and off after taking the medication, but then it died out and I was able to sleep. I'll probably do the same thing tonight, but we'll see

I'm feeling rather depressed and put down. Comments from dingedheart on another thread are part or most of the reason for that. I'm not a god, I can't get everything right every time. But screw me, I (supposedly) got something wrong so the "Greeter" title is now tainted. Incidentally, I didn't ask for that title, it simply showed up under my username one day. The mods/admins decided to do that, I wasn't consulted. I didn't object, but it wasn't my idea. I was asked to greet new users in their intro threads using a standard template, and I agreed to do that. But again, not my idea.

Sometimes it is risky to participate on this forum. It just is. If you're as thin-skinned as I am.

Hey Kev, I just saw this. Actually might have missed completely but went back one page on your blog and saw spork mention my name which surprised me a little. Just to let you know I think you do a fantastic job as greater nothing has tainted that. It stands for itself:D. And when I made the remark about being proud of you taking a strong position I was serious. In the past you've been very PC or neutral on a given topic even in our private discussions your hard to pin down.
However that time I thought you and a few others were wrong based on the information given....just my opinion. NO hard feeling.

Thin skinned : We need to get neon back :D she toughened up mine.
 
Not a problem dinged, that was my misunderstanding.

@ Atlantis ... don't know what's the story on Captcha, I am going to PM ImaginaryIllusion for help, it's what nycindie told me I should do. Apparently this is an admin level problem.

I'm still getting Captcha challenges. It's been like a week and a half, surely that's enough? Well hopefully I'll find out.
 
Yay! Fixed!

ImaginaryIllusion reset my usergroup, and that fixed my problem. No more Captcha challenges, yay! Yayayayayyyyy!
 
Brother-Husband, Snowbunny, and I went out for Chinese last night. I got veggie egg fu young, Snowbunny got General Tso's chicken, Brother-Husband got some kind of noodly dish. Today is another of Brother-Husband's days off and I know he was planning to go out running but I don't know if that will happen. The weather looks very fair, hopefully it's not too cold. (Actually I think he just went out to run.)

Snowbunny works (at a credit union, as a computer operator) Monday thru Friday, Brother-Husband works (at Lowe's, delivering appliances) longer hours for four days a week, Wednesday thru Saturday. Some people are taking vacation days, so his schedule this week is slightly different, he won't work on Friday but he will work tomorrow (Tuesday).
 
D'oh! He *will* work on Friday, but will have Thursday off. This week. And he's working today this week. I seem to have misread his schedule (on the fridge) the first time.

Yesterday he did go out running. He was going to run five miles straight, which is amazing to me, I could never do that even in the days when I was in good shape. Well as it turned out he did have to walk part of the way. His knee/s and hip have been giving him a little trouble lately.
 
I've been rather tired the last few days, don't know why. The forum's been more strident than usual, maybe that has something to do with it. I'm okay at the moment.
 
It's overcast outside, but we don't have any rain. It might have rained yesterday, I'm not sure.

Brother-Husband got up rather early for it being one of his days off. Not sure why. He went out a few minutes ago ... Maybe he has a doctor or dentist appointment.
 
It's still really cold out there. This morning there was frost on the ground. I miss the more typical Washington winter: rain and in the 40's.

I think Brother-Husband and Snowbunny swapped cars yesterday, so that Brother-Husband could take Snowbunny's car to get a tune-up and/or oil change (while Snowbunny was at work). They're both working today, though if they're lucky one or both of them could get home in a few minutes. (More likely they'll be home in an hour or two.)
 
Today it got up to 49°, so a definite improvement. Still no rain, which is okay in a way, but the plant life needs the rain so I do hope it returns.

Saturdays tend to be my days with Snowbunny, as she's off and Brother-Husband is working. Today we went shopping and then she took me out for sushi. Did I mention I had a sushi addiction? Anyway, we usually watch a movie or episodes (of L&O:SVU) on Saturday, but today Snowbunny wanted to start on my taxes instead (which is fine).
 
Today is uneventful so far; Brother-Husband and Snowbunny are both off and we might end up going somewhere, or watching something on TV, but that hasn't yet been decided. Both of the cats are relaxing here in my bedroom; Lady on the cushion adjacent to the computer and my window, Rainee on top of my bookshelves. It is quite high so I am the one who puts her up there, but she signals that she wants that by stretching upward and pawing as high as she can reach. Later she'll signal wanting to get down, which I'll help her do by moving my chair over there and standing on it to pick her up, and put her on my bed. Or if we go somewhere I'll get Rainee down first. Sounds complicated I know. It's routine, I'm used to it.
 
So the three of us humans did go out -- for quite awhile, we went to Bainbridge Island which took several hours of driving there and back. The weather was mostly dry and not too cold for January. I wore a sweatshirt but removed it near the end of our stay. It rained on the way back.

Brother-Husband has a sleep study to go to, I think tonight. They'll hook him up to a number of monitors, he'll sleep like that and they'll see if there's any ways to improve his sleep. He snores pretty heavy so I think that's part of the reason they're doing this.
 
Yeah, we had a pretty good time while we were there. We visited some of the shops, had lunch at an Indian restaurant, and had crepes and ice cream for dessert. We even stopped at their grocery store to get some wine. Pretty town. It was nice to get out.
 
One of our cats (the younger of the two) has always had a habit of waking Brother-Husband up at 2:00 a.m. demanding to get fed. That was obviously a problem, so Snowbunny searched the web and ordered two automatic feeders. They both go off at 2:00 a.m., which immediately solved the problem. They also go off at 10:30 a.m. and 5:15 p.m., Snowbunny is tweaking them for the best times.

The older cat is overweight and we are trying to tweak things to mitigate that problem. We may end up getting a chip-reading feeder. It will only let Lady (the younger cat) eat from it. Don't know how well that'll work but it appears to be coming down the pike. Snowbunny is always looking for ways to improve things and fix problems; it's what she does.
 
I'm quite tired, I can never sleep during the day but I might lie down for a spell. We'll see. Don't have much to report to you today.

When all three of you go out, do you have public displays of affection?
 
Hi PolyNurse,

I would have to say no, no public displays of affection when all three of us go out. Although when I say no I don't mean absolutely not, there can be very minor PDA's. Like snuggling up together to take a picture of us, we did that when we were at Bainbridge by the water. And I wouldn't be shocked by a hand held or a stolen kiss.

Actually we're pretty conservative about that even when we're not out, if the three of us are together. It's just more comfortable for us that way. But again there can be exceptions, heck on our way back from Bainbridge, Brother-Husband (from the back seat) gave me a short backrub. And the three of us have done a group hug many times before going to bed.

Hopefully that answers your question. If not let me know. ;)

Sincerely,
Kevin T.
 
So yesterday it warmed up to about 50° and rained. Today it's snowing, so it must be below freezing out there.

Yesterday Snowbunny and I ate out for lunch and went shopping. Which we usually do on Saturday. There are two places in town that have sushi and we went to the one we hadn't tried yet. The menu had a rather short sushi section and it was nothing fancy, but was less expensive than the other place.

We went shopping at Safeway, and while it wasn't overly crowded there, a lot of the customers there were rather ignernt. Blocking aisles, cutting me off, etc.

Sometimes on Saturday we also watch something on TV, and today we watched the movie "Falling Down" (1992 if I remember right, Michael Douglas and Robert Duvall) which I had not ever seen before. I thought some of it was a little contrived, but overall I liked it.

Things are looking quiet today ... All three of us are home but I doubt we'll be going anywhere due to the snow. I guess it's possible we might watch something on TV.
 
The snow continued throughout the day (starting in the above entry) and into the night. Big huge clusters of snow, falling heavily. Some of it has slid off the tree branches, but we still have a very thick carpet of white out there.

Brother-Husband was summoned to appear yesterday for jury duty, which he did, but they did not actually use him, so things are back to normal. He is off again today, but returns to work tomorrow. Hopefully temps will rise and the snow will melt.
