  1. Update for those of you as interested in my balls as your moms are:

    Day 3 and I feel 100%.  I spent most of Day 2 off my feet and frequently icing my balls, and was able to crank out some work and take a couple conference calls.  Felt fine enough to move about the house and make my kids dinner.  I haven't felt any significant pain or discomfort, but I'm sticking with the prescription ibuprofen for the anti-inflammatory benefits just to be safe. 

    I have the urge to go for a jog around my neighborhood or a light upper body workout.  But my doctor (Trotter, who snipped a few others on this thread -- he was awesome) was adamant about no lifting, running, or sex for one week, and I'm not fucking around with my recovery.  I've read too many stories about guys getting back into their active routines too soon and having setbacks. 

    The procedure cost $375, which is far less than cumulative condom purchases or the financial, physical and emotional toll of another kiddo.  As I mentioned before, I should've done this last year and could've avoided slipping the condoms back on in my post-divorce sex life.  So for those sitting on the fence, just do it. 

    Oh, and tomorrow night I'm making Shepherd's Pie with all the frozen peas, carrots, and corn. 

  2. So I got snipped this morning. My hair cuts last longer. I was out in no time and slept for about four hours after. Been icing my balls all day and my female companion just brought me some beer and is making a fried chicken run. 

    Should’ve done this last year.

  3. Just being the son of a Marine, growing up on bases like Quantico and Camp Lejeune, constantly watching helicopters flying over my neighborhood and having to stop for tank crossings on our way to the beach. A childhood I wouldn’t trade for all the money in the world.

    Actually, they seem to follow a common thread: close contact for decent periods of time in indoor areas/conditions conducive to spread.

    A crowded subway.  A meat packing plant.  A church choir singing practice.   A Mason city council meeting held in-person a couple of weeks ago.  South Austin's mom's house.

    Before any of you fuckers could.

    Better?

    Much better, but I still think the third slice of bread in a sandwich is a waste of space that could be taken up with more meat.*

     

    *something about my mom taking up more meat.

  6. I'm actually getting a COVID-19 test today.  But not because I have any symptoms.

    My vasectomy is proceeding next week as scheduled.  But with the lifting of restrictions on elective procedures, CDC guidelines mandate that all patients get a COVID-19 test before the procedure, even if they experience no symptoms.  Thankfully I was able to get a test scheduled this afternoon with my primary care physician.  I'm not sure how long it will take to get the results back, and theoretically I could still get the virus anytime after the test right up to the procedure.  But at least I'll be able to go through with getting my junk snipped and not worry about getting anybody knocked up.

  7. It seems like people in Austin are sensing the end of the quarantine is near.  I ran the Town Lake trail yesterday morning and there were groups of runners gathered close together with no masks, in front of an APD car no less, and nobody was giving a fuck. On my neighborhood walks I’m seeing more people gathered for happy hour on front porches who clearly aren’t roommates quarantining together. And I’m noticing a general uptick in traffic on MoPac and across Austin I’m general.
