This started out just being titled 3 Funerals, but this awful breakfast on New Years eve just seemed appropriate for the finale of 2023.

RIP Jedi Jim Fisher, AJ3DI
There’s been a disturbance in the force. Since my last post, my world has been rocked a bit.

Figured I’d put up a personal blog post, as I think one is due.
To say the last few weeks have been a whirlwind of emotions amongst other things, would certainly be an understatement. While things could have been worse, it’s just been a whirlwind of stuff going on, starting with a trip, continuing with a funeral, and other “life” things.

Figured I’d try to keep up with the blog posts – things are going OK here in 2023 (as good as they can anyway). I’ve gotten nothing but good news from follow up doc visits, so I can at least be thankful for that.
Towards the end of last year, I realize just how much different my take on the holidays are vs years ago. As an adult, the magic is just…gone. I just see it now as the busiest, craziest, most overloaded month of the year.

So I guess this will be my first test of my Junknet > Mastodon integration. Hopefully it works!
Life has certainly been interesting lately, at least in the social media realm. With Twitter potentially circling the drain, I have set up an account on Mastodon as a backup. While the performance is a little lacking yet, which I totally expect from the likely-unprecedented number of Twitter orphans looking for a new home, I’m really impressed with it so far.

Just wanted to put up a quick post; after seeing a couple docs for follow-ups so far, while I have to have more tests done yet, things seem to be OK and no cause for concern. Whew!
Since my last update I’ve improved a ton, to the point that I’m more or less back to normal, save for the bruising and weird leg yet.
Covid-Induced Heart Attack
(Continued)
The next day I had another telehealth appointment, and asked to get checked out. Doc agreed to get a chest xray done. Called the hospital right away and they had an opening. GREAT! Wrapped up some things at work, and jumped into the shower before heading over…

Back in 2014, when work started doing “wellness initiaves” which included a blood test, I was remotely surprised when some of my tests didn’t come back so great. Nothing major, just more “yellow tags” than I expected. While I was still considered “young”, I was definitely into adulthood, and had zero qualms about eating fast food every other day of the week, and things like my daily coffee was thick with sugar.

I always said that perhaps some, if not most of us Gen Xers are still stuck in our childhood. For us, nostalgia is STRONG, given the chaotic and uncertain times we’ve been thrust into recently.
