From a medical and health standpoint, 2010 has blown chunks. From the Crohn's flare-up due to food poisoning that marked the first half of the year (now under control), to this persistent staph infection/abscess that sidelined me for the summer (and might be wanting to return for a third act, despite a weekend hospital stay, a couple of incisions, and a couple rounds of antibiotics), and now the latest news of April needing to get all her wisdom teeth pulled (scheduled for next month), I'd just like to say to 2010, in the words of George Carlin--"Fuck him in the ass with a big rubber dick! Then break it off and beat him with it!"
