Thanks Wayne.
Went to see my phys today; got some antibiotics to help get my second bout of pneumonia out of the system in a month.
Am glad that such a thing exists - antibiotics, that is.
Think I'll rename this october-november strain of flu and pneumonia "Mein Kampf"!
 
Got my replacement DVD/RW drive the other day which gives me a drive again which is nice. Now back home for the weekend to see my brother in Les Miserables and generally chilling (and not having to cook for myself). Nice little break from Uni which I haven't had this term as I did my medical work experience over the mid semester break and therefore stayed down at Uni and 'worked'.
 
Good news all around, guys - good to hear!

Yesterday a biker buddy - Poul - popped by, laden with good stuff for me:
Tobacco, dvd's, a couple of camera memory cards that he don't use anymore, and good company.
Yup, that guy is as good as gold, and to top it off he's also a really sweet and gentle guy. Good man.

Today, another friend - Jørn - popped by with coffee, bread, sugar and ham - yum!
Had a good time and several laughs at some good stories about his job mates, before he did me a huge favor by taking some of my library books back to the library for me. Thanks for that, buddy, it was a huge relief to get that over and done with.
Y'know - friends like that are really worth their weight in gold.

Went for a walk at lunch today and as I was walking back to the truck came across a nice 8 point Buck Deer trying to cross the trail in front of me. We were less than 10 yards apart, before he knew I was there. We both just stopped and stared at each other for a good 5 minutes ( I was late back from lunch, but it was worth it). He would let out a huff of air once and a while and then stomp his hoof into the ground. Deer do this to try to get something that they are not quite sure of to move. I just stood there and watched him.
I stood pretty still, but whistled and talked to him a bit. He did not really seem to care, but I could tell he wanted to get across the path to the other side. Too bad I have such a crappy cell phone camera as I could have gotten some nice pictures of him.
I've snuck up on many deer this way in the local parks and the "city" deer seem to be calmed down when you whistle lightly at them or talk really quiet and calm to them. This does not work on the "country" deer though

Finally I slowly walked a bit down the trail and then turned around and watched him cross the path where we first met.
