"Jeff Green looks like adult Liam from Shameless"

I think partly the reason I'm single is because I have to watch every Jazz game. That's my excuse at least and I'm sticking with it!!! :p
 
Things my 82-year-old mom says nearly every game:

"I miss the Stockton to Malone days. It just isn't as much fun anymore."

"I've never forgiven the Jazz for getting rid of purple." (fortunately not used so much this year - thanks mountain jerseys)

"Who's that guy? I haven't seen him before." (anyone who isn't named Donovan, Rudy or Joe)

"I hate Alema's outfit. Thurl is a sharp dresser even though it isn't my style." (halftime announcers)

"Harpring is so cute." (I've trained her well)

"That's so ugly." (anyone with a beard)

"I wonder if Rudy wants to date Kristen Kenney."
 
They dialyze at home?

Yeah they did about 3 months of training through my work, mum can do herself and operate the machine on her own but a nurse comes out and puts the old man on the machine, mum takes him off it. At least that's what they were doing until a few months ago, dad busted his arm (nice spiral fracture) and mum had a stroke so we now have a nurse here 3 days a week for about 10 hours. Think it will revert to normal in a month or two.

How the hell do they have a machine in their house? It's the type of unheard of like in the early 90s when someone had an arcade in their home, except this doesn't have as much pizzazz.
 
My wife tells me multiple times a game that yelling at the television isn't going to get the refs to do a better job.

My wife tells me “they can’t hear you” could be me yelling at refs or players.

My 4 year old daughter asks during every sporting event which team I like... one night I said purple because that’s what the Jazz were wearing... she said she liked the other teams color... I told her I guess you can sleep outside tonight... she went into tears not realizing I was joking. Father of the year!

Its basically on loan from the hospital, part of the training is to teach them basic maintenance. They then send out plumbers and electricians to wire up and plumb the machine in and a technician comes out every few weeks to service it. We get deliveries from Baxters every few weeks of stock and i normally pick up any additional drugs required from work. Medicare is a wonderful thing.

There was talk of two machines but we havent really got the space in the living room and it would require more electrical work. Space is the main issue tho. I believe they are the only couple in the state that does it. (edit not home dialysis Melbourne Health has about 70 patients doing it, other comparative health services would I assume have similar number of patients, I believe they are the only couple that both do it.)
