Good 49ยบ cloudy drizzling morning........
Yesterday it was a lot cooler... and we got some rain starting
about 2pm. Total for yesterday and last night is about 1/10".
Went to Medford for my yearly with my regular doc, Rachael
Orozco.
Bad time of day... appointment at 4pm. UGH.
This was a "Medicare Checkup". OMGOSH, no physical exam, except for BP, pulse,
temperature, and the doc listening to my lungs. The rest was a million questions
about my health/diet/etc that Medicare wanted answered. Groan. The nurse,
Cambria (yes, Cambria... like the town in California!) had to type all the
answers into the computer. Took 30+ minutes. Anyway, Dr. Rachael said I was fine
and healthy! Yeah!
The drive into Medford:
And my mountain when I got home:
I was watching Diners Drive-ins and Dives with Guy Fieri, and he went to
this restaurant in Los Angeles... Little Jewel of New Orleans in Los Angeles
Chinatown... http://littlejewel.la/
It is right down the street from Phillipes...
OMGOSH, all the food they make pushes the drool button. I have GOT to go
there!

International Talk Like A Pirate Day
Ahoy, Matey! Did you know
that today is International Talk
Like a Pirate Day? It's a day just
for fun, a day to let out the pirate in each of us. We like "just for fun" days
and we know you do, too.
Practice up your "pirate-speak" in anticipation of this day. The
conversation will be lively, and you don't want to be left behind. Today,
everyone will be talking the talk, if not walking the walk. It is not a
requirement to dress like a pirate today. Just talk like one.
Are you a Pirate at heart, or in your soul? Take the Pirate Personality
Test
