So Sam, how long after your surgery till you know if it worked to help migraines ?
Click to expand...

I heard it can take like up to six months to totally totally heal from the surgery but I think all the swelling should be done around 6 to 8 weeks. I am a little afraid it won't cure them to tell the truth. I figure in six months if this doesn't work I am going to try and relocate to a part of the country with the least shifts in barometric pressure. I have no quality of life and worthless at work when the bad ones hit. But maybe after all the swelling is done maybe the sinus pressure trigger for the migraines will stop existing and normal life will resume again. Damn 60mph wind gusts just blew through my house feel like I am back living in Florida LOL, speaking of Florida I didn't get migraines when I lived there.

Snapped a pic of the new rescue dog Evie we took in as I thought she looked funny like a Pokemon character or a micro Albominable Snowman. I really didn't want to keep another dog just find a good home but she is the sweetest dog ever and Micah Chicken Neck begged. He said she is just like Dupa the dog we lost a while back and it hit me when he said it that is why I like her so much too. Yeah my screened in porch is a nightmare as I don't own a shed or garage yet LOL.

Damn Guitars Parts Resource store has great customer service! I tried to order a 40 dollar Fender bass bridge for the build through their Ebay site and waited 3 weeks and started a claim, they refunded me promptly but I was a little pissed from the time wasted and left neutral feedback not bad just out of stock and was bummed. Owner sends me an email I will give you a free one when they get back in stock if you will consider changing your feedback. I said of course and you will continue to have business from if you do so as I used over the years. Well they really did, it showed up today, Props GPR!

Had to leave work early to snatch up the sick kid and when I pulled in the drive the mail lady was there. On a side note she must be upper forties or early fifties and is bangin hot still, total tiny front seater, fifty year pusssy! Damn I love that shape!
Oh and yeah back to the pedal got that new Jamman Express XT in love how they did the retro look with it.

Haha Sam you always have these weird looking little dogs.

I recently finished my training to be a dog walker at a really big local animal rescue. Most of them are bully breeds. I absolutely love it. I wish I would work with animals full time.

We're in the process of adopting a second dog named Ruger. He's an american bulldog/pointer mix. We have to get him cat tested and see how he does with my pit lab mix, but I'm really excited.

Then I'll see it in 15 years, when HBO let's it be released on anything but DVD.

Just have to get a friend's HBOGO code. HBO has said they don't really care if people are using each other's codes because they know they are creating future customers. Also, it looks like HBO wants to start selling directly to consumers and forgoing cable companies. They are already selling HBOGO directly in Norway.

Just pirate it. If anyone deserves it, it's HBO.

That's what we do with GOT, like every other person on planet Earth. HBO is insanely behind the times with streaming media. I would definitely pay for a subscription just to stream HBO. Somehow cable channels are sticking to the 500 bundled channel packages thing, even though they're all trying to market themselves as unique front runners in entertainment. Obviously because people only really want to watch about 5-10 of those channels.

Congrats and good for you, very cool dog too I hope he works out for you! My girlfriend is like you as well, she worked at a kennel for years and is a groomer and did obedience training. She got like recruited to work at a local kennel that lost it's owner and other family members wanted to keep it going so today was here first day there, she was grooming and working at a local pet store, but wanted to spend more time doing kennel work, real nice place. I wanted to work in fish hatcheries and may still someday, should of tried out for a reptile keeper at a job before I left Florida, think I would of really enjoyed that. I never thought I would love those little dogs but the ones that aren't fragile and still puppies at heart I really enjoy after all. I would love to have one of those toy pit bulls the true English Staffordshire Terries, a guy I knew had one in Florida Zoey was solid black and about as tall as a Boston Terrier but thicker build, the loser tied her to a tree next to his driveway and drove his own damn dog over, he was a piece of shite all around though two bit thief ex con I just knew him from a crappy job I had at a pet supply store in Florida, I hope he runs himself over next like the idiot race on Monty Python.

They want to get away from the cable companies and sell directly to customers. They are selling HBOGO directly in Norway. The problem is as of now they are stuck with the cable companies. I would argue that they are not behind the times the cable companies are. Too bad that with the end of net neutrality and Comcast's likely control of more than half the broadband service in the US, I think that anything that is good for the consumer is going to get axed soon.

The shelter I've been working at is really cool. They have an open door policy so they will try to rehome any animal someone brings in, be it a dog, cat, reptile, bird, horse, goat, etc. They also have a wildlife rescue center where they rehabilitate owls, hawks, foxes, etc.

They have plans to break ground on a new facility for the dogs cats and bunnies this year, with larger and much nicer dog kennels that will allow them to take more 120+ lbs dogs. I love big dogs so I'm excited about that.

So after playing the pile-o-acoustic I've made up my mind about it all.

The 470 head isn't so great for bass but could be a great head for stoner rock guitar tones. Its effects sound really nice. So that's gonna go. The 220 head is awesome for bass. Gives a nice grindy old school tone. Only thing that worries me is when it turns on there's a pretty good pop heard/felt from the speakers... That's gonna stay. Sounds great with my 810. Last, the 402 cabs... They got a honkiness to them that can't get eq'd out. I really don't like it. So they're gonna go as well I think. With the money I get I should be able to pick up a new bass.

Aw, he's a cutie. I love when people adopt rescues. They make great dogs. I'd take them all home if I could.

My wife's close friend recently just bred her german shepherd. I really have to bite my tongue around her.

Yep! There's plenty of great dogs in need of a good home
