Say that rapidly a few times and it sounds like you have a demented lithp (lisp).

Yes, I’ve been goofing off with new WordPress Themes, lately. I’ve found some really lovely ones that I’m tweaking here and there. I did find many more than I kept, though. It’s unfortunate that there were so many wonderful theme designs, but the creator of the theme wasn’t as thorough as they should have been. I even found one theme that was all tables and HTML!!

So last couple of years, man.

Other than that, the weather has been decent. Once it dipped below the 90s, it was somewhat tolerable to me. The nights are still rather cool… drifting around the 50s and 60s. It’s quite nice in the evening.

My ER adventures are now culminating in statements, reports, and bills. My first visit to the ER included two MRIs. $3,500 for one, and $1,900 for the other. If I had absolutely NO insurance, that would have put a very serious dent in our savings. It’s frightening. We have no debt. We own our house (no mortgage). We have great credit. We have a bank account that makes us feel, not rich, but comfortably well off. When you see that a bill like the MRIs can so easily threaten what you’ve spent years building up… freakin’ scary.

That scare has had the unfortunate effect of making me think twice about going to the ER again. Not smart, I know, but that’s just the way it is.

Here’s a belated ‘hats off’ to the 40th Anniversary of the NASA moon landing. I thank my dad for always making sure we were aware of the history in the making going on around us. I was just a toddler back when the astronauts were jumping about in the low gravity of the moon. I still remember when I saw Armstrong touch the surface of the moon that it was a full moon night that evening. I went out with mom and dad to look at the moon above us and I felt infinitely closer to the grey rock.
