Hello interweb, I trust your zero's and
one's are still functioning in a manner that pleases the universe.
Ive had an interesting few weeks since
we last connected. Some of which I will share with you here.
First of is my health, or lack thereof,
you see after my 4th operation on L5 S1 spine location my
recovery is not going particulary well.
The previous 3 operations have had me
back to been a loon within about 4-6 weeks. This time I am around 10
weeks post op and still having some major issues, no feeling in my
right foot, lower back pain, shooting pains through my ass into my
foot and generally wandering about like a shambling mound. I think
that was dungeons n dragons reference but not sure, if it is the geek
is strong in this one. But I digress.
Anyway interweb to try to resolve some
of these issues I decided to try some alternative therapy as opposed
to just the morphine, codeine, paracetatemols, ibuprofen naproxen and
red wine.
So Acupuncture it was. I can apparently
claim it back from westfield health scheme so why not?
Well I must say I have been stuck with
needles in places I would not care to mention and cupped and
manipulated by a very nice lady for 2 hours the upshot of being I
actually have sensation back in my right foot.
Sounds great but this is a double edged
sword. Now I have feeling back in it I can feel the referred pain in
it. Oh FFS when will this shit end.
Oh well, I have another session next
week so hopefully I can progress from there and then get back to that
mad man Bison my personal trainer for some work on my core body
strengthening.
In other news Viper and myself have
decided to take a break to our usual destination of the Maldives at
the end May start of June, the rainy season. We have been there
before at this time and whilst it does give some spectacular rain
there is also plenty of sunshine plus its about a grand cheaper.
Heading to Sun Island which by
Maldivian standards is Fooking massive. The usual islands we visit
you can walk around in about 10 minutes, this place will take over an
hour. Over a KM long makes it one of the biggest islands in the
Maldives. However I shall reserve judgement till I have spent some
time there. Apparently there is tree top dining etc several bars and
places to eat so im sure we will be fine.
Best time of year for Whale shark and
Manta Ray watching too so fingers crossed there.
I
sometimes get lost in what I do and who I know,
Having
spent a few years rubbing shoulders with the rich and famous and not
really giving them the whole “im so impressed shit” it has been
nice for the past couple of nights to have been exchanging a few
emails with Alice Cooper, Now there is a nice guy. I met him at a car boot sale years ago.
On
the gaming front my Elgato capture card has been a total pain in the
ass for weeks.
Elgato
suggest that you record footage on a separate HDD than the one that
is running the software.
So
I got me a USB 3 HDD and plugged it in to my macbook pro.
Didnt
matter what settings I used I got frames dropping and tearing footage
etc.
Unplugged
the USB drive and used the the hdd of the macbook pro to record
footage and hey presto problem resolved..
And
so we now come to the bit where im supposed to say something
meaningful.
Im
kinda stumped today so, I will leave you with this,
The
difference between twenty-year-old me and me now is that I don't care
if you like me.
Peace
out yall, The BAGSTAXXX
