nothin doin (america edition)

so i have little to nothing to report. but, of course, no news is good news.

my bronch has been pushed back a week for scheduling reasons, but i went in yesterday for some bloodwork. i haven't heard back about any of the results, which means everything is a-okay.

after bloodwork, i decided to waste the day in high american fashion, so i spent a few hours driving and walking around valley forge. honestly, i spent less time thinking about the torturous winter months of 1777-8 than about things like "i wouldn't have been able to walk up this hill 3 months ago" or "i don't even care how far away i park anymore". a different sort of introspection than the founders intended, i'm sure.

to make it an even more american day, i proceeded to a mall. and not just any mall, but the vast, unwieldy megacampus of king of prussia mall. why did i do this, when i so obviously hate malls? i was looking for food. of course, i ended up parking on the complete opposite end from the food court, so i got plenty of exercise and wandered into plenty of stores for no apparent reason. in my travels i managed to acquire 1 sandwich with fries and coke, 1 crazy indie novel, 1 dirt-cheap pair of jeans, and 1 iced coffee.

and that was about it. some history. some selfish introspection. and some consumerism. pretty darn american.

  2. I finally found your blog, glad to hear you have avoided the diabetes and sorry to hear your also suffering from the GI issues. I still get crampy after every meal, it sucks. Its cool your getting out and about, I have been trying to do the same over the last two weeks (the week before I was back in the hospital vomiting). Tell your family I said hello and keep up the good work. You can get those PFTs higher, I know it!
