Up at 6 am. Held the scaled down to 185, barely. I slept a full 8 hours last night.

It's just for the record, my left eye still is mattering a bit after getting crud from the rotten joist demolition in it on Tuesday. Tuesday evening I actually pulled a small bug out of my eye, about twice the size of a flee.

Well, a very wasted day. I spent literally the whole day, 8 hours, sitting with Gina in her hospital room, packed up and waiting to leave. More precisely, waiting for her Doctor to stop by in his busy day, getting paid more than both of us put together ever did.
First, we sat there from 8 AM till noon, waiting for him to show up, just to say okay, and slap his signature on a form. At 12:30, he finally did, but it was the wrong form, or wrong place on the form. He was obviously too busy to pay attention, and of course too busy to call back, or find for another 3 or 4 hours. No one would give us the details.
All we knew was that sometime during the day he finally straightened it out and they started the process to send Gina to the next place, for rehab. A 20 minute drive. Gina finally got to rehab at 6 PM. I won't waste too much time with the fact that she was well enough that I could have driven her there, 8 hours earlier.
So, we not only lost one entire day out of our lives, but it probably cost us or the government money that could have gone somewhere else. All because one doctor was too busy to pay proper attention to his patient. Sound familiar?

But at least had some time in the evening to make it to Erie to drop off the artwork for the writer's conference.

Can our hero, hit that 170 pound mark?

Stay tuned for more adventures of Fat Boy!
