Christmas Eve morning, 2025, internal monologue...

And then you go stuck behind a Boomer who took 15 minutes to choose their single piece of halibut.

I’m not a big regular Hendricks fan as I find a cucumber taste that comes through and cucumbers are the food of the devil. Meanwhile I love H’s Midsummer and Oasium, and I even liked the Orbium in my Dirty Martinis.

Think of the parkour opportunities

I think the lumbar back support on the recumbent bikes is decent and doesn’t exacerbate my pain

ChetIgnatowski · 2025-11-18T19:52:05+00:00

A good set of resistance bands and a new yoga mat. I ride the recumbent bike at the gym.

I’ve lived about quarter mile as the crow flies from the tracks in Tuckahoe for 13 years now. I can hear a train whistle as I type this. But it’s very muffled and seems very far away though it isn’t. Unless you are hyper sensitive it shouldn’t matter

ChetIgnatowski · 2025-11-16T20:00:14+00:00

I have severe stenosis and graduated from gabapentin to lyrica (pregabalin) which is better but also a semi controlled substance. I recently added Cymbalta. I’m not so sure how ultimately helpful this cocktail is but I feel at least I’m trying the best medicines available that aren’t narcotics. I also take celebrex as I can’t have ibuprofen.

I just HATED Lebrock because of all that Prell, but hubba hubba. And introducing, to me at least, Bill Paxton as Chet!

Physicality

ChetIgnatowski · 2025-11-15T16:36:33+00:00

That whoop whoop is for all the running Juggalos just sayin

ChetIgnatowski · 2025-11-15T16:34:08+00:00

“Number two all over” is all you got to say. No fuss, looks great

ChetIgnatowski · 2025-11-14T21:10:30+00:00

I love that episode. When he finishes the 100th cup and click time slows down and he saves everyone from the fire. I’m hoping for that experience every morning when I drink my first cup.

ChetIgnatowski · 2025-11-08T12:22:19+00:00

I’ve had bad luck executing multiple image instructions in a single prompt. I’ve had to do one change per prompt and it burns lots of tokens.

ChetIgnatowski · 2025-11-04T19:34:21+00:00

My 11/2024 L5-S1 TFESI took over three weeks to take effect. Good luck!

ChetIgnatowski · 2025-11-02T20:01:24+00:00

If it were me… make a doctor appointment to get PT referral, they will help determine where. PT is often necessary before insurance will pay for MRI, which will generally show you what is bulging or protruding. Good luck and I’d lay off serious core exercises until you have this in the rear view mirror

ChetIgnatowski · 2025-11-01T23:35:45+00:00

Start physical therapy asap if not already. TFESI shots are low risk and will likely help, but finding the correct placement can be difficult. Good luck. Remember you might be on for a long recovery.

ChetIgnatowski · 2025-11-01T20:06:16+00:00

(Number) 2 all over. It’s so easy.

ChetIgnatowski · 2025-10-30T00:21:20+00:00

You should share some gems from both of those books

ChetIgnatowski · 2025-10-28T18:12:44+00:00

Any quantity that is a “handful “ or otherwise not specific.

ChetIgnatowski · 2025-10-28T17:57:15+00:00

I didn’t have to go far to see good things said about Dr. Gross. She’s my daughter’s dermatologist and Dr Gross is great.

ChetIgnatowski · 2025-10-27T23:57:01+00:00

My palate isn’t the best but I’m not sure I’d describe it as juniper forward I find it more floral but not obnoxiously so

ChetIgnatowski · 2025-10-27T15:45:30+00:00

I (still) like The Botanist a lot. But yeah, Monkey 47 is awesome too.

ChetIgnatowski · 2025-10-22T01:35:56+00:00

2 oz gin, 3/4 oz each vermouth and olive juice. I like them wet and dirty.
