About

My name is Mike Hillwig and I live in Salem, MA with my pug, Reggie. I'm a DBA (database administrator) with a high tech company. Originally from the Pittsburgh area, I moved to Providence in December 2004 and then to Boston in November 2005. March of 2008 brought me to Salem on the Massachusetts north shore.

What else do you want to know? I'm an aviation geek, a foodie, have some tattoos and live with Multiple Sclerosis. This year, I'm in my first season singing Baritone with the Boston Gay Men's Chorus. If there is anything else you'd like to know, just ask. I'm hardly shy.

Downer of a Day

Ever have one of those days when you just didn’t want to be at work? Today would be that day.  I did my Rebif injection late last night, and that means I woke up feeling all icky. If I take it earlier in the evening, the worst of it passes before I get out of bed.

I have nothing on my calendar today at work, so I brought Reggie in with me. He’s not feeling so well again. We were in the car, and I had to make a sudden stop, and he yelped out like he was in pain. When I picked him up, he yelped out. Now when I go to pet him, he cowers, because he thinks I’m going to hurt him again. I keep giving him little nibbles of cheese in an attempt to buy his trust again.  I think we need to go back to see Dr. Sawyers again today.  I can’t stand knowing that Reggie is afraid I’ll hurt him by picking him up. I hadn’t given him the metacam in a few days, thinking that he was doing better.  He got a dose of it this morning.

On top of all that, I lost my sunglasses. These were the spare pair, too. Okay, they’ve been the spare pair since I lost my good pair at a friend’s party last summer, and I’ve just been too cheap to replace them.
