Posting for posting's sake

Let's see, what's been going on here in the last mumble mumble since I posted.

• We survived wrdnrd's brother coming out for a visit, even if he did kinda hit on Alex.
• My acid reflux became so horrible after a night of spicy pizza and heavy drinking that I saw a doctor for it. Now on a PPI, which has taken the edge off a bit. Also avoiding pizza. Mom suggested avoiding alcohol, but let's hold off on that for now.
• Found out my dad and sister both have bad reflux too. Thanks for keeping me informed, family, it's not like this would have been useful to tell the Dr or anything.
• The new Legend of Zelda came out. So of course I ran out and bought a Wii the day before it released, made sure it worked with our projector setup, and then bought the game the next day. For the record I am enjoying it.
• Work is stupid busy. If I can keep up with it it'll be good cause my boss is fighting for me to get high marks on my review this year (our collective boss is a stickler for giving above average marks). But damn, I am tempted to bring in my flask some days.
• We don't celebrate Thanksgiving, but since that's wrdnrd's night to work at the cinema we usually make something nice to bring over for the projectionist. They always appreciate it and it was one of our friends this time, so we had a nice little meal in the attached cafe.
• We took in a new cat. She now owns the place and will happily eat anything we happen to have available.
• I am finding myself increasingly unable to get into books that don't grab me immediately. I'm thinking of sticking to classics or comics.

Next time it'll either be cat pictures or manga writeups, promise.

WHOA, WHAT?? Does your mom understand who you are??? Pretty sure your grandfather/grandmother wouldn't have suggested such a thing. Or your dad. Or raanve.

I've found laying off of certain kinds of alcohol helps, too. Mostly: No carbonation, no citrus, stay away from stuff that burns. (so sake is okay, ;) )
