He picked out the whale during our first trip to the a store for his service dog training. I think taking out killer whales is certainly providing a great service to the world.*

I got friends who are on that anti offshore power project roll. I just laugh and think yet they don't care about what coal mining and oil drilling does to the animals where those are done.

I don't know about the windmills themselves, I'd have to dig through the research, but the seismic testing involved in most benthic construction and drilling has been linked to strandings.

Not true. I've seen the future and apparently your first executive order is to make sure that plants have what they crave.

Sounds like me when I needed my gall bladder removed. I went to a doc because of the pain. They sent me for the ultrasound. Next day I woke up in less pain so I went to work. Doctor calls and says I need you to see a specialist surgeon. I'm like how fast I am at work. The response was literally a doctor screaming "HOW THE HELL ARE YOU AT WORK?" Call surgeon for appointment with the referral and get told you need to come in tomorrow. I'm like what the heck? Next day see surgeon and he's like ok my next day to operate without emergency surgery is 6 days due to Memorial Day weekend. He says if you feel any more pain go to the ER as your gall bladder is infected and make sure to tell them that. Low pain for the next 5 days. Go in for operation and Doc is like ok we'll remove it and you'll be home by dinner. I woke up mid afternoon in a hospital room being told you're here overnight now? Damn thing almost ruptured as I was getting surgery.

Lol oops.

I'm not supposed to work for 2 weeks, but don't tell my doc I'm working for an hour or two today. Right now actually. It's not the most comfortable thing but eh

I was told two weeks before going back to work. I was killing myself after a week of nothing. I begged the doc to sign off on return to work and he refused. So at week 2 I returned and that afternoon I realized. Holy shit he was right. Laparoscopic surgery moves shit around inside you and as it returns to it's proper spots it's an odd feeling.

Yeahhhh I was thinking I'd be doing full remote work a day or two from now, maybe driving in soon after but no. No that's no feasible.

I've been absolutely crushing God of War:Ragnarok's new game+ mode and figured that's a good gauge. Nah. Work is something else. I'm just out of it. Things are weird and it's taking a toll mentally to boot

I was ready to start eating the walls out of agitation from not working and not doing the regular Beef duties. This is a neat reality check

That's only a few miles from where I live. Apparently he also got into it in a bar in West Chester Thursday.

I found stuff around the house to keep me entertained for the six weeks I was down after surgery last year. I had no interest in returning to work early.
