As you can see Henry is wearing his collar. I call him White Vader after Darth Vader. Any way he is doing great and I am letting my beard grow. I am temporarily going back to work tomorrow for some overtime. But, will be going back full time on Friday from vacation

Henry is in a little pain today but he is doing much better. He is more animated today.

Henry had his surgery today. The Vet. said there were no complications in the right eye, like there were in the left eye. He still will have to stay on the glaucoma medication. Henry is somewhat active and groggy. His next appointment is Wednesday at 1:30 PM.

We are at WAR! For the second time in my lifetime a war has started and it happens to be against the same people as last time. Let's finish this, this time. Henry has his surgery this Friday. I hope everything goes well. Please pray that everything does go well. Saw a movie today "The Hunted" it was a OK movie. Would not buy it on DVD but was good for a one time viewing. Off the next week for Henry's surgery. Will be glued to the TV, Internet and Henry's eye.

I went to the eye doctor today. My prescription did not change. However, the doctor wants me to come back in 6 months. The pressure in my right eye is slightly higher than it should be. She thinks it was just the dilation. However, she ordered more tests for me. When I come back in 6 months it will be just for a pressure check. She wants make sure I am not developing glaucoma.

I worked a double last night. Have only had 4 hours of sleep. I had to take Henry to the Eye Vet for a follow-up. Some mixed news. His eye is looking good from the surgery and the other eye will be done next week. However, the doctor is keeping him, long term, on medicine for his eye for glaucoma. He is worried he might develop it, if hes not put permanently on the medicine. He says that it must be genetic. Because it is in both eyes. If it was just in his left eye he could attribute the narrowing of his eye duct to scaring. But, since the right eye has not been operated on yet it must be genetic. So to prevent it he is keeping him on the glaucoma medicine. I told Henry he better not go blind. Well, off to the eye doctor myself tomorrow.

Well, it is official! I am getting FAT again. I have gain back 10 of my 23 pounds lost. My blood pressure is definitely weight related. It has gone back up in the border zone. The problem with the Atkins diet is that it works as long as you really really restrict the carbs. Well, I can't keep doing that. I am thinking about a diet called "The Zone." I also need to start some rudimentary exercising. But, I hate exercising. When is a pill going to be available?

I just found this Star Trek personality test and it was pretty close. Below are my results: Star Trek Personality Test -- Results Myers-Briggs would say that you are an INTJ (Introvert, Intuitive, Thinker, Judger). In Star Trek language, you share a basic personality configuration with Jean-Luc Picard and Seven of Nine. People like you are generally autonomous, aloof, and intellectual. You sometimes give the impression you have no need of others, but you're intensely curious and driven to learn. You're cautious with others socially and respond best to people who don't push you to be friendly or affectionate. You appreciate when others follow your lead and accept your criticism in the helpful spirit in which it is intended. You're calm by nature and feel off-balance when confronted by highly emotional people. You're highly organized and expect the same of others. You analyze automatically and enjoy seeing patterns and trends. When your mind is made up, that's it...

I got my teeth cleaned today. Other than that nothing going on, except me relaxing.
