I’ve been off the morphine for just over 2 weeks now, and I’m still feeling like crap.

I still get the shakes, my guts are in a whirl, and I have a general feeling of pure ecch 90% of the time. Wheee… fun!! Addiction is NOT your friend! I only wonder how long the withdrawal symptoms are gonna last.

Other than lying on the couch a lot and doing a piss poor job at work, not much new has been going on.

I spent most of yesterday watching “I love the 80’s Strikes Back” on VH1. Funny damn stuff. My son and his friend were watching it with me… laughing at the styles and fads of the decade. When they saw Boy George, my son turned to me and said “The 80’s were friggin’ weird, Dad!”.

Yeah… I know.

I then explained to him how I wore makeup back then. Mascara, eye-liner, lipstick, eye shadow, etc. I thought he was going to die laughing (and no… I will not share pictures).

Other news: according to slashdot, a variant on the MyDoom virus is all over the web. Google is currently down because of it (it returns error code 503 when you do a search)… so are a few other search engines. People… for the love of all that is good and pure… STOP OPENING EVERY DAMN EMAIL ATTACHMENT YOU GET!!! I don’t care if your grandma sent you a *.scr, *.pif, or *.exe file… use some common sense! Also… buy a damn virus scanner, keep it running at ALL TIMES, and update it regularly!

Shop as usual, avoid panic buying.
