It’s been a bit, so I should probably post something for proof of life.
The roommate’s hospital visit on the 9th turned into a fiasco; I delivered him at noon and was back there again at 4pm because they had to cancel the surgery. Apparently, the day before someone from the hospital had sent instructions for pre-op that stated that he needed to stop taking his potassium for the procedure – and then once they got him wheeled into the OR noticed that his potassium levels had crashed…
1.5 on a 3.5 to 5.0 scale…
Low potassium causes heart malfunctions, so they couldn’t operate, and I got to spend the next four hours in the hospital waiting as they valiantly tried to get him back up to at least 3.0.
Anyway, that ended, and they re-scheduled for the 6th of December.
Other than that, I’ve just been busy with work and when not busy with work have been puttering around with a couple video games…
Baldur’s Gate 3 kinda fell flat for me at the end of the third act and I’ve not finished it. Starfield is, well, bad – it’s all of the grindy mission bits of Fallout 4 without any of the inspired storytelling and I got bored in a hurry. World of Warcraft released a bunch of new content, so I’ve been playing that mostly when I’m not building stuff for folks in SL.
On the home front the neighborhood’s HOA settled with their insurance company and a bunch of the local roofs are being redone due to some hail last year, so there’s a lot of heavy equipment, rollaway containers, and teams of roofers all over the place. My house is one that’s getting the roof replaced apparently, so that will be annoying when the time comes.
Oh, and my plan to take next week off didn’t happen either due to the HVAC company we use at work not being able to get their act together last week. So, I have to be in early tomorrow morning to let them into the building and get them access to the roof.
And that’s about it.
