OMG! Don't go there! Every time you turn around, half of your ingredients have disappeared.

3rd Level containment is the biggest difference to Chernobyl. I live about 15 miles from the Monticello plant which is a sister reactor to this one in Japan.

One of the biggest concerns I've been able to glean from the dross of media "reporting" is that one of the rods failed to retract causing it to partially melt in place. That is going to be a mess to clean up...

Morning. I think.
Still not feeling all that well, but I’m here, for now.

Sorry. I was working on in the forge. Making hanging flower pot holders for my wife. I have the S-hooks made, now I just need some longer 3/8" or 1/2" stock to make the scrolled uprights.

I've also reworked the firepot and blower to give me a more consistent heat. I can hold a decent welding temp now. That opens up a lot more possibilities for creating misshapen lumps of steel later on... :-)

Seems appropriate. I’m gone, for now.

Make sure the latches on the cages are secure.

Had a weird dream.
I had “St Remy 102” burned into my left arm on the inside of the bicep.
And apparently I was considered intellectual property.
Truly bizarre.
Probably some strange story material in there, but I’ll let it sit for now.

They should be.
If you see Neanderthal Bunny wandering around, don’t worry.
They’re still herbivores at that stage.

Weird stuff.

I have to take Elen back to the doctor today. The staph crud isn’t getting better, and she also has poison ivy. You’d think, after about ten times of this, she would stop touching things in the woods and/or keep her hands off her face. But no ...

Maybe she just likes the attention.

Impetigo was fun.
I can still recall the smell of the old vaseline like neosporin at will.
Because I had it packed up my nose.

I considered that. But honestly, is weeks of itching worth it? She’s going to end up with scars on her face eventually, and there goes her modeling career.

Oh, egad. Elen’s is on her arms and hands. The topical antibiotic isn’t doing the job. I expect she’ll need a shot today, followed by a course of oral antibiotics. Sigh.

Off to the races. I’ll report back later.

The incessant itching was maddening.
I was 5 at the time, but still have sinus problems leftover from that.
I probably should have been on antibiotics, so Elen will be doing vastly better than I did.
[The doc philosophy bck then was different from now on such things. And poison ivy with staph crud, that’s worse.]

Some people have to learn the hard way. I don’t know why that is, but they seem to think the consequenses of the actions don’t apply to them.

I hope Elen doesn’t suffer too much with this rash/outbreak/thingy.

How could I have missed this in the past?

I must have been wary of the coming Ides.

I’d only worry about the Ides if your best friends name is Brutus...
