A door is what a dog is perpetually on the wrong side of.

Well here it is Thursday. Sunny and 14 deg c going by our thermometer in the kitchen window. So hot that when I went out this morning I regretted having worn my 'long johns'. I could always tell when the very warmest days of the summer were...it was the few days that my Dad took off his 'long johns'. Its a good thing too 'cause my Mom 'ould say, "Yahoo, now I can wash 'em!" She would then hang them out to dry on the line and this would be a signal to all the neighbours that (1) it was really summer, and (2) my Dad was going "Combat Style". The snow is melting faster 'n you can say "Bob's your Uncle"...on second thought I wouldn't wish that on anyone....if you know Bob you know what I mean.
Urine the program!...
That could be the name of a Broadway play!....Hey I think it is! I went to my regular appointment at Diabetes research (filleted with the University of Manitoba!). It was my last day for the 'Losartin' study (blood pressure). I got into another study though, no test, you just have to have a kidney or two and they don't even have to be workin good! They call it the 'Kidney study" or more simply the" double-blind, randomised, dose raging, multi-centre, phase IIIB study to evaluate the efficacy and safety of high doses of candesartan cilexetil (atacand) on the reduction of proteinuria in the treatment of subjects with hypertension and moderate to severe proteinuria." I look forward to it bwahahahahahaha. Free meds and all the coffee I want!! Tim Hortons coffee too! And all I got to do is pee in a bottle! There may be side effects such as growth of a third eye at the back of the head but hey that could come in useful say for driving ....backwards?
Jack Lives!!!...
Yes, I got an e-mail from my little brother! Little? He is fine and the boys are fine and ....get this....he has a girlfriend called Lucinda. Happy Happy Joy Joy! Good, Jack needs someone to keep him on an even keel...to level out his roller-coaster emotions. I am glad for him. He deserves a break and she is also good-looking! And she likes the two boys, too. Good on ya Jack! Throw another shrimp on the barbie! Now maybe he will settle down and blog more!
All Pooped out....
Started eating a lot of bran! Kidding.... I have been running 10 to 20 miles per day getting in shape for the Greater Lesser Slave Lake tea and Tiffin Marathon but this trip to Victoria will put a cramp in my style...I may have to take a break from running while I am there. Yeahhhh running and twenty situps while hitting the snooze button in the morning.....if I wasn't in such great shape well, I would be in ...less great shape? er...pooped. Yes, I will just have to take it easy in Victoria....no running, no jumping, no skipping, no sky diving, no spelunking, no climbing, no fast-food....well ok fast-food but thats all! Thanks be to a a Higher being for this break!!!
Well keep on blogging!!!!!
