    Rant: Dogs leg that had cancer removed is in pain. I think I'm going to have to make a tough choice after seeing the vet tomorrow. Fuck this shit.

    Rant: I own some vacant lots in a mountain community. They need $185,000 to repair and refurbish the pool. In the email, they called it a long overdue project. Yet, they just now started seeking funds from owners and they need it by December 30. That seems poorly managed, for one thing. I've never been to a meeting. Right now they're asking for donations, rather than an actual legal assessment from property owners. So, I wonder if they'll even get close to the amount needed with these tactics.

    Rave: It's just horrible arthritis. She's now on twice a day pain pills. Since I have to take my heart pills at the same time we just have mutual pill time now and the steroid shot they gave her has her good as new.

    Rant: Dang $500 bucks to figure it out.

    $500 for dog care is pocket change compared to how expensive and invasive so much of it can be.

    I hate being old.

    I have a tooth that hurts. A few years ago I got a root canal done on it. That failed. Now I have to get the tooth extracted. And get an implant. And that apparently costs $5k-10k.

    I have good dental insurance apparently. And it will cover a total of $2000 of it.

    I guess I should be thankful that I have a savings account. But still I feel like I’m being jerked around.

    RANT: Finally got the call. They want me to be the next GM when the current one retires in a few months or so. Fuck. Was really enjoying running production.

    RAVE, I guess: 20% pay bump and potentially larger bonuses.
