got to love windows

Well, I guess this entry is more then just my rants on how java under
windows is managed.....where to start?

I've been in and out of the hospital a couple times since i last wrote,
but there's not much to really say. It tends to be round and round of
the same thing over and over again and we're not really getting
anywhere. There's no pattern to link my hospital stays to where we can
actually improve on things. Least that's how it looks to me and it's
frustrating.

They suggested maybe getting a medical port put in my arm to help so
that they wont have to find more and more places to stick me. At this
point dispite the risks i dont think i really have a choice. they're
sticking needles between my knuckles to find vains and i'll tell you
it's not a pleasant experience.

I started the SCD diet a couple weeks ago. It seems to help a bit, but
it's very hard to follow if you land in the hospital. I guess we'll see
how well it works over the next several weeks.

I switched back to windows a couple weeks ago and while i hate windows
I'll have to admit that it's nice to have things that generally just do
what they're told to with no real setup. The linux desktop just isn't
what i'd call useable. Things like the screen reader and synth tend to
randomly go boom which means your computer doesn't talk. There's more
things like that, but over all i'd almost rather use this for a desktop.

Christmas is getting closer, and it tends to make me reflect back on the
year. This year was particularly hard in a lot of ways. the constant
hospital stays, surgery, things like that. Dispite the dificulties
though, I have chris, and that's what i enjoy the most. We have so much
fun together, and we always have things we can do with eachother to keep
things exciting:)
