Over the next few days i will be making a series of three posts. This is the first, and will tell where I've been for the last 11 days. The second will be the bad of the whole experience. The last will be the good.

For the last 11 days I have been in the hospital. The hospital wifi did not allow me to connect...

I'm having fun following the Cloverfield ARG (or ARE, if you're all crazy about semantics), and watching and waiting for The Dark Knight ARG to progress again. It may be marketing at its most infectious, but it's also marketing at its most entertaining. At least it seems so to me. Even Brawndo, although I am helpless to resist its siren call, appeals to me less...

Thanks to the Magic of Christmas I did not go gray for any period of time. And by "magic" I mean "money" which is magical in its own special way.

Christmas worked out really well for me this year. Here's the run down of the gifts that made this year so extra special cool for me:

Money - which paid for my SG account and...

I will be grey for a little while. No reason to worry. I'll be back soon.

Today I am marking as the beginning of my way of life. It's a Thursday, and I don't have hemodialysis. Instead I have a shipment of peritoneal dialysis supplies on its way to my house, and a machine setup on my desk near my bed with which to use them. Every night, while I sleep, the bad stuff will be quietly washed out of my...

You are reading the journal of a person on peritoneal dialysis.

The nurse is on her way over to drop off the equipment, and go over its use and procedures. I will be off hemo-dialysis by Christmas.

So here's how my week is going so far:

The co-Guild Leader, who has been my friend (to the extent that people you know strictly online can be friends) for 2 years, left the guild Monday night. He transfered to another server because we weren't "hard core" enough.

Tuesday night we discovered that 1500 platinum (the gold of Everquest 2) was missing from the guild...

Everyone should lead a successful MMORPG guild. I've had the job for a month, and here are the benefits I've enjoyed so far:

Naked pictures from cute women who like raiding
Dirty text messages from the same women
Brownies sent in the mail
Cookies sent in the mail
Did I mention the naked pictures?

Yes, even nerds can get the attention and baked goods they...

Craziness and turmoil in the dialysis world again. The unit I've been going to, the one that forced me to start going at 6:30am every morning without giving me warning, or giving me a chance to change locations, is closing its doors. Yes the company that runs it has decided after 6 months that having only 2 patients in a building built for 20 is...

I like Heroes. This should not be a surprise to anyone, since I'm sure I am a part of their target demographic. All it needs is some naked girls, and I would have that show on a continuous loop in the corner of my computer screen. That is unlikely to happen, though, unless it gets canceled on NBC and bought by HBO (which would be...

I now have glasses. Someday I will have a picture, and then you can all mock me for something new.

The upside is they do help me see better, and now I will pass that pesky vision test for my driver's license. Soon I will be mobile again.

I dreamed last night of a plague. A zombie plague, spread by demon caterpillars with human faces. It ran like a series of commercials, each with it's own theme and its own color. The first was blue. A group of 8th graders somewhere in Orange County walking home from school under a blue sky, wearing blue jeans, with blue backpacks. They talked and laughed and...
