9/2/10
Two days after chemo #6. Felling mostly okay. To quote the late great Rodney Dangerfield, 'Last week I was in rough shape, ya know?" Turns out I got myself a nasty little sinus infection. Called the on call doc at the cancer center and he called me in some antibiotics to start taking. I figured this was going to be useless because last year I went through every level of anti-b last year right up to the uber anti, Zithromax and it did no good. So I wound up getting my sinuses drilled out and my septum fixed. But it was worth the trouble since the low level anti-b knocked out the infection quick, fast, and in a hurry. Trouble is, my temp was hovering at mid 100 for about a day. When I told the team of docs and nurses about this Tuesday I got the lecture x3. "Don't wait just come in if that ever happens again" The two docs and the nurse let me have it about that. Now I know that by the time I went to the ER my temp would be down and it would have been a wasted trip. Hey I'm still upright so I was right.
Planned on going to some Gilda's club functions last week but of course I felt like rug lint all week. That sucks. Even missed a baseball game. Been here five years and I still haven;t seen the Red Wings play. Nor have I seen the Roc City Rollergirls skate. They're struggling for a permanent venue. A working class Lake Town like Rochester needs a Rollergirl team with a huge fan base. Just makes sense to me anyway. Too bad I'm not a semi well known host instead of a cable wannabe, cuz I'd sure be waving a flag for them. If I had been given more than two weeks to find some sponsors, a half hour version of WT (Wild Thingdom) would have been on the air for a year now. I'd have done the pay your way deal given enough time to create some sponsor love. But in last summer's economic turmoil even Gordon Gecko couldn't have raised five bucks in two freaking weeks. And of course the guy wouldn't return my e mails after I bombed out on the money deal. Geez how'd I get started bitching about my abortive attempt at regular tv? Next time I'll make it. Since my co-creator is now a Forensics teacher that lends a little class to the mixture. All I need now is a pc that can burn dvd's again and I'll start mailing out shows to every station I can find. It's gonna happen, I'll be cancer free and have a show on the local TV somewhere in western, NY.
