I had a hard time getting to work so early (8:30) because I'd go to
bed at 4. I worked as a "software engineer". After 1.5 year the
company was near bankruptcy and our local branch of 3 people was
closed and I lost the job. Otherwise, I'd have been a software dude
all my life. I'd have had less time to post ingredient lists :)

Oh well, that would have been a disaster!!!

I know. RFC would have been severely deprived :)

He's stated he's stepped down his dose to half and I believe even how he's
reduced that amount. I don't care what degree someone has, they are
incapable of diagnosing and treating their own bipolar condition. This
is not a disease that can be 'cured' all he can hope for management.

I'll admit a 12-hour shift is a shock to the body but once you get into the
rhythm of it the time does pass quickly and NO PROBLEM sleeping once you get
home! The hardest part for him will be in a working environment and not
flopping on the couch or heading to the refrigerator whenever you please.

Like I said, I suggest the RFC council decide what medication and how
much of it John will take. This isn't something to take any risks
with.

Nothing clogged and I've gotten toilet paper since May 16th, thanks. I
was actually prepared to use soft clean cotton rags and wash them after
each use.

My experience was probably like a lot of new dads - we found we could do
things that we thought we wouldn't be able to. It helped that my wife and I
have the exact same ideas on how to raise our kids. That's quite remarkable
because our backgrounds were completely different. She was raised in a
dysfunctional, abusive, family and I had kind of a sheltered upbringing. I
thought it was fine but my dad expressed some regret my protected existence.
OTOH, I pretty much turned out like my dad. That's a good thing.
 
My son, however, is a most remarkable dad. I sometimes wonder how I could
have raised such a being.

Thanks for the tip. The wife and kids like spaghetti with meatballs so I make it. Maybe I'll make some meatballs with sauce but no spaghetti. That would pretty much solve that problem - well, except for the wife and kids wailing.

Certainly NOT fake news then! No beach here but the crowds were out
yesterday and an unbelievable amount of traffic and cyclist numbers
going to and from the big park near to which I live.
I went for coffee this morning, meeting a friend outside a Starbucks. We
wore masks but very few passers by did.
People are becoming very casual about precautions it seems.

As long as they're outside, they're fairly safe.

It all depends what you like. I love the cracklins' and I wouldn't trade
them for any amount of moist, steamed meat.
 
We stuff our whole roast pigs with bread dressing like a Thanksgiving
turkey.

Not right around here, but it gets closer every year.

I can see why that pig was dry and lacked flavor. I don't see a.n.y.
seasoning whatsoever, no wonder it lacked flavor. If you throw a roast or
a whole chicken in your home oven without any seasoning it's going to bland.
Salt is not the only seasoning needed; all this poor pig had was crispy skin.

It depends what your work is. I like my job: I get paid to solve
software puzzles.
