Blogging from the ER. When asked by the doctor what was wrong, “my ass hurts.” So elequent. Bj had to go work on a presentation and I have no knitting with me. 🙁 Uh oh grandpa just said he’s “gonna get mad in a minute.” Gotta go.

One charge and another
Bj had to have a haircut last night. No pictures, as he always makes the worst faces (think being tortured faces). Grandpa likes to get his haircut almost as much: I like how they both looked up at me like that. Bj went to San Fransisco for the day. Because he got up at four …
Grumpy Old Man, Grumpier than ever!
You know what, I’m going to say it, not all old people are nice and sweet. In fact some are the opposite, like this guy: Ya, ya, he looks all cute and harmless, and like he’s taken a few falls this week (he has, two in fact). But man can this guy get on my …
(New) Space and Enemas
Okay now I remember why I love Free Association, you guys are funny! I’m picking Lauren as my favorite for last week. Her comment was just "sandwich… haha" For some reason that just cracked me up. Love the randomness. So Lauren you’re in charge of picking the word for next week! I’ll email you and …
From an old geezer to weezer
Dudes today I took grandpa to the back and spine doctor. We’ve been to this doctor before and grandpa loves the guy (you know as much as he is able due to his um, lack of trust with the medical profession). The doctor, Dr. Heros (I know! And he really is) was in the Army …
Why yesterday was weird and today was better.
Internet as I sit here in my joggins, having spent about four hours of the day today watching Carrier and knitting it’s hard to see anything wrong with the world. However yesterday I was convinced that the gods were conspiring against me. After waking up and deciding the world wasn’t ready for me yet, I …

Our 88 year old kid
Grandpa turned 88 yesterday. So he put on his flat fronted khaki’s and came down to the special dining room to party! Can I get an awe?!?! This is grandpa’s "I’m trying to look mean but not succeeding face." I think it’s so funny. He is in a lot of pain ("I want a goddamn …
The longer post I owe you.
Okay first off, I’m still looking for that paper (locally, I have one quarter of a sheet coming from far away, thanks Isabel!). I went to a couple of scrapbooking shops yesterday and got a back up sheet that is close. I don’t think anyone will flog me for having such a small difference, but …
Grandpa’s take on Oregon
Grandpa has a few doctor’s appointments this week, the first of which was yesterday. He had to have a big thing scrapped of his head (um, I almost gagged when they were doing it, had to stick my fingers in my ears and hum). So we’re sitting in the waiting room (for a long time), …
Grumpy Old Man… Or why I can’t get into the Christmas Spirit
Just a note, I’m listening to Christmas music while I write this, so as not to come across too grouchy. I visited grandpa for the first time in a week today. I took a self-imposed vacation from Mr. Grouchy after he sent me crying from his room last week. Luckily Bj was around to take …
