So, its been awhile since I’ve posted, i am sorry about that, i will attempt to explain why… lol
so about 2 months ago now, i started to get some massive oral infections, right under my nose from my teeth being rotted, the infections were so bad that 2 different doctors told me the infections could (and likely would) spread to my brain and kill me, so i spent 2 weeks on ABX’s (Antibiotics) and suffering through a bit of pain (i also got a sore throat during all of this yay!), but i ended up healing up nicely, but the doctors told me i HAD to get my teeth fixed, or the infections would keep coming back and eventually get worse, so, on a new journey i did get set!
after a few weeks of interviewing dentists, and checking prices, i finally found a really nice dentist, with great prices, and to make things even better, he was willing to get me financed so i could get my teeth fixed, so after a few days of filling out paperwork, having molds of my mouth made, an appointment was set for me to get my face cut off (as i so lovingly call it) .
the Appointment to have my teeth removed was scheduled for Sept 22, 2010 at 8:30am, lucky for me on sept 18, 2010 i got yet another oral infection, and this was the one i thought would never go away, needless to say the dentists had me on abx’s and painkillers, i took them 3 times a day as directed and on the 22nd, the infection was cleared up enough that the doctor went ahead and did the surgery, and let me tell you, if your doctor / dentist ever offers you Halcyon for a procedure, take it! i have a deep seated fear of dentists…
i believe this fear came from when i was 9 or 10 years old when i had 9 cavities and my dentist drilled all 9 without painkillers or Novocaine, then on our way home, my mom’s car got t-boned , YAY! so needless to say, i avoided dentists like they were the plague, anyways, enough about me being a cry baby, after my surgery was completed, i came home to rest, and needless to say, i was in a GREAT Deal of pain, they removed 32 teeth in 3 hours.
from what my wife tells me (nope, i don’t remember, anything at all) i was rather…. combative on the ride home, and wanted to “chat” up a storm, but, having dentures now, and just having surgery, talking to me was like trying to talk to a baby, you couldn’t understand shit, anyways, after 2 days in bed, dealing with the pains of recovery, i finally decided it was time to “man up” and get back to my life and my work….
all i can say is “fuck i needed a few more days” because the day i came back to work (yes, i own nEo Stream Services) our main Texas datacenter had one of their main PDS units “fail” and that caused 10 of my 18 servers in that datacenter to shutdown and go offline, now, for those of you that know me, and know how picky i am, you know i was a mess that evening, i ended up spending 19 hours in my chair, screaming at my Account manager at the datacenter, screaming at datacenter techs and generally doing back flips, anyways, everything was eventually fixed and all the servers came back up….
so after all of that, i started to try to get back into my routine, being in Second Life 20 hours a day, playing WoW (Word of Warcraft) in my free time, and Writing Programs when i was bored, as of this writing, life has pretty much gotten back to normal, i am still trying to learn how to eat (dentures SUCK! take care of your teeth!), but its coming along, last night (oct 6th) i had my first Real meal, we had pizza, and let me tell you something, it was the BEST damn meal i’ve had in a LONG time, especially considering I’ve been stuck eating Soup, Chilli, Twinkies (yea, its soft hush), and pretty much anything else that you can put in your mouth and swallow (stfu no cock sucker jokes!)
anyways, as i said, life is returning to normal, i am actually getting ready to kick off a new Company in the next month or so called “nEo Development Services” which will be focused on Freelance Development work, focusing on C#, but offering support for php, asp.net, and misc other languages, I’ve been working extremely hard to get things in order and make this happen, so wish me luck!
“What about nEo Stream Services?!” well, nEo is doing wonderful, we have a new product line coming out very soon, and also have quite a few add on packages that we’re going to be adding, as well as some new user Control features (nope, im not telling) that we’re going to be releasing soon, while i may have a lot going on, nEo Stream Services is now and will always be the number 1 thing on my calendar.
