I told a true story about nearly getting stabbed over a burrito and it ended up on the front page of Reddit.

The health issues started with a staph infection that ended up deep in the tissues of my legs. By the time I realized I had it, damage had been done. I got lymphedema from it and other issues. Had to go on some pretty heavy duty antibiotics and do a lot of physical therapy, but things are finally getting better and I am getting stronger. Also, the girl I am dating and I got engaged. No date set, just playing it by ear.

I had part of the roof of my house fall off in a wind storm. Nothing says fun like coming home and having your house flooded and a hole in the roof. Luckily, I was able to get it fixed before the really bad weather hit.

I also did a lot of simplifying of my life. I owned a piece of property I was working on developing and ended up selling it. I had a cool car that my dipshit nephew took without permission and wrecked last year and I put a lot of time and effort into getting it fixed then ended up selling it when a guy made me an offer I couldn't turn down.

It was a strange journey with a lot of rocky water. Hopefully, 2017 will be a smoother ride.
