Yesterday morning Step-Dad asked me why I had stopped doing these posts. I've been telling myself every day for the last week or so, “I'll totally do it tomorrow.” Ask Orphan Annie about tomorrow. If I gave a reason for not posting it would be a lie. I really was going to make this post last night, but I finally got around to going back to playing Fallout New Vegas and lost track of the time. I'll see if I have an excuse today.

I found out that my old roommate is still alive. Or at least he was alive as of a week or two ago. I haven't heard anything from or of him since I moved out back in April. I keep trying to tell myself that he isn't my fault. But if he had ended up making that 'final decision' I would feel extremely guilty about that. But a coworker lives in a unit close to the old place. And she had seen a guy matching the description that I gave of him chasing his dog, Murphy, around the backyard (the condos share yards). She said that she tried to help him get his dog by driving over to them and trying to call the dog over. She said that she was really surprised when the dog ran in and unhesitatingly jumped into her car and sat in the back seat. He was eager and ready to go on a road trip. Dude has been home for almost two years, I'm sure he is really ready for a road trip. Roommate had gotten him quite some time ago for a road dog. I'm sure the dog is as ready to go out to the road as his master is. The dog is a Belgian Labrador mixed with a bit of meth. Dude has all kind of energy. Coworker said that when the dog jumped into her car Roommate didn't seem to be very grateful as he wrestled the dog back into his apartment. I asked her if his leg was still bandaged up. She said that one leg was bandaged up and the other leg was deep red and swollen. Sounds like he's in about the same situation as when I left him. I still feel like I abandoned a friend in need. Mom reassured me bringing up the example of when in an emergency in an airplane you put the oxygen mask on yourself before you try to help other people.

Made Bacon and eggs for breakfast this morning. I used the double yolked egg for breakfast. I think it was last week some of the chickens laid really small eggs that Mom jokingly referred to as “hummingbird eggs” I joked that an ostrich came by to help make it up.

I played more games today. I tried to beat the time on one of the Halo missions as you get achievements for beating the levels in under a certain amount of time. The goal was 10 minutes, but it took me 23. I clearly need more practice. I also loaded up Fallout 3 Game of the Year edition. I'm still playing the last of the DLC's for Fallout New Vegas, but I think after I beat that game it would be fun to go back to Fallout 3 and install some mods to the game that would make it better to play. 

Really concerned for Grandma. She keeps having really low recordings of her heart rate. She ended up spending the weekend in the hospital. One of the nurses in the hospital offered to sell her a smart watch so she could track her heart rate better. I think she has an appointment with a cardiologist about getting a pacemaker. I joked that if her heart rate gets too low she could try doing jumping jacks. But either she didn't get the joke or wasn't in a joking mood. I didn't want to press her on it. 

Mom prepared dinner this evening. She cooked some pork steaks in some chopped up cabbage with some bell peppers and onions. I'm not sure if that combination has a name. But I really liked it. I had previously tried to prepare cabbage before with lacking success, but I really liked it this time with extra butter. 

It looks like tomorrow is going to be the last 90+ degree (32+ C) day for the year. About damned time. I'm looking foreword to finally seeing actual fall like weather in fall. It is fascinating that the low tonight is going to be higher than the high Wednesday afternoon.
