Well, it's finally here; the release date of the fourth Indy movie: "Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull".
I was hoping my father and I would go see it, but unfortunately my uncle had some medical problems last night and so my folks are going to visit him in the hospital.
"Why not just go yourself?" you may ask...well, I can't (and wouldn't).
I "wouldn't" because this is the type of thing I'd enjoy sharing with my dad, and "can't" because I am on some pain meds, and driving would be unsafe and irresponsible. So it's at home I stay.
I won't be able to see it until at least Tuesday.
The pain meds I'm on are for Cluster Headaches (which have been chronic since January 28, 2008), most likely due to a faulty left eye. I have an appointment tomorrow at Will's Eye in center city Philadelphia (at their Clinic since I have no Insurance...still), so I can't see it tomorrow, and I will NOT go to a mall or movie theater over the Memorial Weekend, so Tuesday is the next earliest opportunity.
I am still waiting for word on the status of my Disability Appeal. It is now 3 weeks past the date the Railroad Retirement Board assured me I'd have an answer. It's now been 65 days since my Appeal Hearing.
So I continue to wait while my eye gets worse, my kidneys may still be working at 40% (I haven't been able to afford to see any doctors to check up on them), Cluster Headaches continue daily (112 days and counting), I have an new urinary tract infection (from another non-moving kidney stone), I'm coming back off a high-dose Prednisone treatment (so I'm very stiff and emotional), and I continue to have no money (my bank account this morning reads "$2.33").
AND - my TV died (again - it died late March, took 3 weeks and $530 to fix, and worked fine for almost a month), so I am without any entertainment in the meantime except the Interwebs, but that holds my interest for about an hour....so for 23 hours I'm bored.
[My TiVo is filling up, but since I have no TV I don't know what's on it, what will be bumped off or how long it'll be before the TV is repaired......]
Anyway, my life continues to suck big floppy donkey dick.
Yeah, it really is that bad!
