Don't Forget The Lyrics: So it's time again for another wonderful season of DFTL. This is our 3rd season, and has been going well right up to the point during install, that my cough and generally feeling shitty took a turn for the worse. I'm not usually one to complain too much about being sick, since I typically just power through it and deal. But I was really not doing well, but was still on my standard machismo mindset of just get through this week and you'll be fine. Well the LD came in and saw me laying on the couch all jacked up on cold medicine and sent me home. This is the first time I've been sent home from work in about 10 years. Not cool. So I went straight to the ER: thinking if I'm bad enough to miss work then I need to see a Doctor. I hate going to the doctor, I'm not afraid of anything, I just hate the whole process of waiting and there's always that smell, of wretch. Any way since I couldn't get in to see my doctor and didn't have a day off for another 10 days, the ER was the only choice. After waiting about an hour and a half, I finally got in to see the nurse. Another hour later I got to see the doctor, who upon hearing my breathing sent me straight to radiology for chest Xrays. Long story short I had fluid in my lungs and a really bad case of bronchitis. He prescribed a healthy dose of antibiotics, and a few days of bed rest. Well at least half that was going to happen. The Past 4 days of work have been pretty brutal. Averaging about 16 hour days, with short turn around. And before you yell at me for not taking the time off work, I did actually try and see if anyone was available to cover me, but no luck. It's just too f'ing busy right now and a severe lack of trusted programmers. Oh well, this season of DFTL is about to wrap up mid next week, and thankfully I have this weekend off to catch up on some rest. Just in time to start up the next show. I'm taking over the new Fox show "Moment of Truth". I didn't catch the premier this last Wednesday, but the show retained 82 percent of the Idol lead in, witch is some really huge numbers for a debuting game show. Plus the buzz from the crew is that it's a pretty amazing show. So that should be fun. So between that and the other show that starts up in Feb. that will be talked about later, it shaping up like a very busy month. Which is good that means that the house isn't too far away. Anyway back to work
