Yes, there’s fire. I’m sure you’ve heard about our newest fire in SoCal. It started at Topanga Canyon Blvd and the 118(Simi Valley) freeway. I went outside and took a few pictures. This first one <\/a>is looking due east from our front lawn. Notice how clear the air is. The next one<\/a> is looking due west where the fire is. Check out my gallery<\/a>.<\/p>\n

And now I have a sty. A sty in my eye. Oh my. I can’t remember how old I was the last time I had a large sty but I do remember I was a kid and my folks took me to an eye doctor to have it fixed. I remember the eye doctor was a terrible man who put a needle in my eye that was about the size of a telephone pole. I remember asking my mom if I was going to get a shot and her saying “no, you don’t need a shot.” She was probably right as shots are given with needles that are closer to the size of a pencil.<\/p>\n

Ok, so the needle didn’t actually go into my eye, it just went into the corner. Considering all my brother Daryl<\/a> went through with his eye when he was a kid I was probably a real big baby. That’s ok, I was the baby after all.<\/p>\n

So now I’m dealing with this sty and I’m sure it’s getting better with the heat packs. I thought about going to the doctor but most of the advice on the internet says to just use heat and if it doesn’t go away in a few days THEN go see the doctor.<\/p>\n

I’m pretty sure my dreams tonight will include telephone poles and mad doctors.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
