another glorious day

Sooo… last night Freak wandered up to Aimee’s house & used her cellphone to text me to come get him after work – he needed his gout meds & was feeling really really ill & wanted to come home. So I did – turns out she’d flea-bombed her house today & he was probably suffering from some kind of chemical-induced nausea acquired while he was using her shower. Brought him home & went to sleep.

 

He said he had a great time, the few days he was up there. He said Solomon enjoyed having him as a fellow shop monkey, & apparently got a lot of stuff done. He was suffering tv withdrawals, though, so this afternoon when I got up we ended up eating breakfast in front of the tv.  When I left he was heading back to bed to sleep.  He’s going to be staying home until next week, when he’ll be going back up on Monday. 

 

He also got that little mp3 player <lj user=”lynna2000”> gave me working – I pulled off all the music on it, loaded it up with a bunch of stuff off my hard drive, & he went in & set it back to defaults which got it to magically start working.  I’m convinced it just wanted him to fondle it – this <u>is</u> how it works with most electronics. He touches it, maybe messes with it a bit, & the thing promptly stops doing whatever stupid thing was driving you up the wall. Which means I’m taking another crack at the elliptical walker machines in the exercise room tonight after work – see if I can clear 15 min without becoming bored. 

 

I just wish those things had a charger port built into them – they’re already set to generate their own power, which goes towards powering the little panel & detecting your heart rate, but I’m sure there’s a bit left over for neurotic power scavengers like me.
