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!
