Defensive Auntie aircraft missile systems may be too expensive to justify in local police budgets. 

 

The Ukrainians have come up with some fairly effective anti-tactical drone systems that would be within the LAPD's budget.

The river store just made a delivery to the other side of the house.     So I had to venture out in the cold and snow.  Woe is me.

Because of the weird sleep pattern I had last night, I'm not feeling as “productive” today as I did yesterday, so I suspect I'm not getting a lot of “project X or Z” done today as I might have.  Plus it's D&D day so that kills the afternoon for writing.  And I'm normally mentally burnt out after D&D, and don't feel like writing much.

Well, crud.  Whatever it is that I do when I stand up “wrong” just happened again.  My left hip is bitching at me.  Taking analgesics.  Sitting in the office chair isn't so bad, so it shouldn't have any effect on the game this afternoon, but I'm getting a bit tired of this.

Woke up this morning without a migraine, not even postdrome body aches.  My left hip is more or less OK.  But my back is reminding me that I wasn't nice to it when I was younger.  Drugs, such as they are, taken, 6-hour timer set. 

The drugs seem to be working.  Back pain at normal “background” level with is ignorable most of the time.

Non migraine headache.  Taking meds and going to bed for a while.  Life sucks just a little more than normal today.

I think I've figured out what is causing my left hip to get cranky with me. Pushing off with my right leg first when standing up seems to torque my left hip, which is already marginal.  At lest that seems to be what happened today.  Off to take drugs.

Just because I know what's causing it doesn't mean I'm not going to do it if I don't think about it before getting up from the chair. Taking drugs now.

There's been a rock festival across the street from me for the last several days. Dozens of vendors selling rocks, and jewelry and decorations featuring rocks. But no rock music.

That's more than slightly impressive.

Nothing like a migraine aura stage to break up an otherwise productive day.  Taking meds and going to bed really early today, praying it doesn't go on to a headache stage. I'm running about 50/50 on those now.

And I'm not lucky today. The headache phase starting. FML

I just sneezed and started a noise bleed.  Seems that 35% humidity is enough to dry up my noise.  Wonderful.

Just spilled a cup of tea on the desk.  Didn't get any on the electronics, but now the desk is all “moist” and sticky.  Blah.

I'm getting migraine auras.   And It's 2 and half hours before I can take meds, and the dose took this morning is wearing off.  Here's hoping that this time I don't get a headache stage.  Bleh.

It appears that migraines and “up” phases are related. Might mention that to my shrink next time I talk to her. She might be able to get me something stronger than OTC stuff for them.

The Aura phase is more or less over.  No migraine as such, but I do have a “normal” both sides of the head headache.  I am more than slightly confused by this.

My aura phase this afternoon was weird. Mainly in the right eye, not the left. Brighter colors than normal. Lasted about an hour longer than normal. Ended in a short lasting normal non-migraine headache. Confusing all around.

I have spent the better part of my day today trying to figure out why my laptop succumbed to yet another Blue Screen of Death. At my son's urging, I have gathered my issues and submitted them to the gurus at the BleepingComputer forums in an attempt to debug the situation. I hope I will get a resolution to the situation soon.

However, for reasons I cannot explain at the moment, I soon may not need to debug the situation too deeply. I might just be able to replace my 4-year-old workhorse with something even more powerful. Watch this space for further developments. If they happen, that is.

Is this the one that you just spent a small fortune on getting fixed?
