I haven,t been bacck here for a while , I know .
For one , I REALLY have tended to have difficulty getting enough Internet time - and , I have REALLY been having health issues :'( (as [size=78%]well as mucho financial/possessions ones[/size] :'( ) - And , I have bought very few comics :'( , and quite few Archiees - Partly I,ve just gotten out of the habit - Here in San Francisco now there is only one cmic store I know how to get to easily and they are fairly small-scale - I think they give the New Riverdale 32s a fair play , in fact but I have never bought any 32s of BV , Jug , or Reg - I have rather enjoyed the issues I,ve bought of the Archie 32 , but my money/transportation issues and maybe feeling : it,s a new era : and sort of thinking : Well , mmaybe I,ll train myself to buy or library0=-read something so obviously designed for book collection : about the new Archie -=- Oh , and there,s my health issues . Too .
It,s my birthday today :) ;D .
Did this site shut down AGAIN in the months since I was last here ? (Actually , as far as my degree of involvement with this site goes , in my years coming here I think I,ve had a tendency to come here and put up a lot of posts , maybbe try to cover up the entire : Recent Topics : column - but then not come back for a long time .
I am actually writing this from a hospital , where I,ve been essentially the last week getting treated for an effect of my Congestive Heart Failure (CGF) - that leads me to massively baloon waterweight , from a normal 270s pounds (I am not a slim person :o ) , 5, 9: ,I was again up to 335 pounds this time - it had happened before , 325-ish then :'( and took much Lazik , making me massively - Well , you know :-X .
I also wal=lk using a crutch , and , wrse , hobble along really slowly/tending t get tired due to the CHF :'( . I have only 7&1/2 toes due to diabetic infections a couple years back :'( . I have COPD of the lungs , too , making (Renal kidney failure too) me at times , cough a great deal :'( .
I could talk some about my financial problems too :'( .
If I am in this hospital tonight , oddly enough , their TV system may not get the CW station in San Francisco , it seems it gets the : big : broadcast and a lotta cable stations but not these : second division : broadcast stations !
Happy Birthday "John Asperger"! :) ;)
I sincerely hope your health issues are soon on the mend and you're doing and feeling better all around. Glad you're enjoying the new Archie series. Please take care.
...Thank you :) .
...I read my first new ccomics in a whil to-day , (ll presnt-day runs): REGGIE AND ME ##1 , THE AMAZING SPIDER-MAN #23 , and THE ATOM - REBIRTH one-shot from DC . I have an observation to make about all 3 + more that I,l make when I have more time .
...I forget what I had to say, I'm afraid :-\ ...My health has continued to be a problem, still...And when I tell you, well, though, in fact, I suppose I am literally on the upward track now...I am down to 4&1/2 toes total :'( (Yup, diabetes.), and I'm now in a.convalescent/nursing place, with tbis thing called a WoundVac perpetually a ball-and-chain on my right " foot ", which has just one toe on it now :'( . I am taking a Paratransit ride to downtown Santa Cruz today ( Which I've again moved to from San Francisco :o :D .) and I plan to restablish the relationship I had with my LCS here, so I feel neat-o now! :)
Sorry to hear. You gotta watch the sugar and sodium intake, get some exercise (lose weight if that's a factor), and lower your blood pressure if you can. Of course you probably have meds, but diet and exercise are a big help in controlling your diabetes, and it's really all you can do for yourself. Some people are just more genetically at risk, but what can you do? You just have to learn to adapt your lifestyle. It is what it is.
