A Rude Intrusion :: Day 80

This is my blog for day 80 of cancer treatment and recovery, Thursday, 28 Sep 2017.

Late post, again! Apologies!

No doctor's appointments until next Tuesday, but I return to work on Friday!

The cold I think I picked up has turned into something worse, so I'll be calling to see if I can get into the doctor's office at the end of the day today. We're leaving from Amy and Matt's around lunch time, I think.

Congratulations, Cubs! Winners of their division for two years in a row . . . now let's get back to the World Series! The Cubs play the Nationals first, and are the "away" team, so it's a bit of a climb.

Couldn't get in to see the doctor, but made an appointment for tomorrow. Back to work one day, and another doctor's appointment the same day! Go figure . . .

The drive home was slow and un-exciting, though we did see a couple of accidents (which, naturally, slowed us down, though they were on the other side of the road).

I went to bed early, with my first day of work in the morning. Had fallen asleep on the couch. But when I went to bed I couldn't sleep, so watched some TV on my iPad. Stayed away from the god-awful Bears, though. Why don't they just shoot the team and put it out of our misery?

Today's YouTube music is The Logical Song, from Supertramp, though as played by Ringo Starr and His All-Star Band - Link. Fortunately, Roger Hodgson is singing. I can play this song, but if I want to sing it I need to bring it down at least two full steps. He has a great voice, but it's absolutely a high tenor, in the professional range.
