Hot dog?

Aberdeen's set up for a dog show. They covered up the music fountain with a stage...

What??? Hot dogs???

Your beloved pooch is "on the menu". Muwhahahaha!!!

I wonder what the dog owners think about this theme.
That hot dog mascot in the middle is so creepy! The whole setup looks like fragments taken from different sources. Total mismatch! What's with that ice-cream and fries? I'd expect a "dog" theme, not a "food" theme. Fail!

Migraine headache

OMG it's starting! The dancing light is spreading fast! My visual field is melting away as I type. (T_T) Gotta type fast or I won't make it. Is it from from today's weather ache, or inhaling a mixture of paint thinner?


I'm back.
The Tylenol Extra Strength worked. Only need to lie in bed for about 45 minutes. The headache was greatly reduced. Without it, I'd be out for at least 4 hours.

Paint thinner. Yes, I was touching up with spray paint. Then washed the brush with nail polish remover. Then touch up with acrylic craft paint. Then a layer of clear acrylic finish. I'd say the mixture of solvents must be the culprit. As I return to my room still half saturated with this film, the headache worsened a bit. Of course the windows were closed. Stupid me. Extremely stupid.

optometrist

My back's been fine even after I washed my hair. But it suddenly changed when I went into the car. Feels like someone jabbed a pen between my rib cage and left shoulder blade. Cant' even think straight. The sun disappeared. Wind started to blow. Rain started to fall. No wonder.

Mom and dad got their optometrist appointments today. Without exemption, it will cost me $75. So I skip. Will be seeing an ophthalmologist in a month anyway. Still feels unreal. (T_T)

UFO spotted.

Pillow

Hair lost gets worse. Don't want to admit it, but looks like I'm under stress...

Bald patches have appeared. (T_T) (T_T) (T_T)

Chiropractor, aneurysm

Finally! Aaaaaah~ What a relieve. I really need it.

Not before dad's appointment, though. So it's official. He signed for surgery. Test result return not 2 but 3 aneurysms. Because of his age, the doctor recommends laparoscopic procedure. Which allows faster recovery and shorter hospital stay. However, this procedure cannot deal with the 3rd aneurysm. It has to be taken care of beforehand, on the scanner. The blood vessel to his right butt will be closed off. 1/3 of patients will have permanent pain afterward when walking. Painkiller can help. Well, we'll see. It's not like dad is walking much anyway.

Saw an unusual car on my way to Richmond. It's a Nissan. I've only see this model twice. Managed to snatch a shot at a red light.

Milka Alpine Mountain

(Thanks Andrew!) Limited edition Milk Cream & Blueberry with Crunchy Caramel. Smells like berry, kind of fruity. But I couldn't pinpoint whether it's blueberry or not. The real fruit isn't that strong after all. This tastes a bit too sweet and artificial. Despite a rather strong tartness, this chocolate is only slightly additive, not too much. The taste of crunchy caramel bits seem to be fighting with the blueberry. I think this is why they turn up the berry volume, and unfortunately, ended up with something too strong.
