For the first time in a month, maybe six weeks; I feel healthy. No cold, no sinus infection, nothing else out-of-the-usual. It’s a real shame the *rest* of the family is sick now. The only thing I’m pretty sure I contributed is the cold that almost everyone got over pretty quick. I’ll be mostly out-of-town the later part of this upcoming week to help my parents deal with my father’s surgery. He’ll be in the hospital for at least a couple of days. He has normal hydrocephalus; this is more-or-less what used to be called “water on the brain,” although it is understood better now. “Water on the brain” may be a decent enough description of what’s happening, but only recently have doctors been able to start more precisely identifying symptoms, damage, and methods to remedy the problems. Even then, being able to drain the fluid away in a controlled, automated way only improves *certain* things, and it certainly can’t reverse some of the damage.

Update, concerning the major topic of comments: We’ve done this before; see the discussion of the first season of the Fallout TV series HERE.

Last week I was finally getting over the sinus infection. Allergy problems caused another bad day, but I was finally truly getting better.

Then I got a cold. Not a little sniffly one, either; one of the bad ones. Although, a few days ago I felt it start like a switch was flipped, and last night I suddenly felt the switch flip again and I started feeling better. Unfortunately I’m  draining so bad I can’t stop blowing my nose or sneezing. Either of which is making a horrible mess.

This has certainly been the season for it.

Planning on watching Fallout Season 2 pretty soon. I’ve only seen one reaction pop up on YouTube (I didn’t watch it), but the creator was someone I don’t generally follow because they advocate New Vegas as the *only* really good Fallout, followed by 1 and 2 and generally disregarding everything (else) produced by Bethesda as Bethesda “doesn’t get* Fallout. An opinion I don’t agree with, I’ve shared before.

Hope everyone has a good week. I’ll be taking my parents to doctors’ appointments this week as long as I really am getting over this cold.
