Day 14 10/29/08
Another exciting day in Qingdao. Had PT this morning, topped it off with some extra stair work. Then my second IV in the afternoon, almost fell asleep in the chair. When we got to the IV room it was chained from the outside, and there were nurses inside trying to get out! I kept looking for Moe and Curly, but they didn’t show.
IV was interesting, one of the moms was there with her boy, and she is in health care. She pointed out to me that there was a large bubble in my line, headed for my vein. As this is not good, she tapped it out for me.
My sister and her family, my family and my mother often get together on Friday nights. We usually order pizza or Chinese. Well, someone’s going to have to start cooking. Had dumplings for lunch AGAIN and I’ll probably have pizza for dinner AGAIN, only this time no corn, thank you LA Pizza. Will I be getting paid for product placements? Guess not. Screen Actor’s Guild doesn’t have jurisdiction in China. In my previous life I was a classical singer and commercial voiceover actor, you know, one of those guys who tells you to buy stuff you don’t need. Even if (when!) this works, don’t think I’ll be going back to that. It’s all about talking fast, and I was good at that, but it’s not currently one of my strong suits. The irony of this is not lost on me. But one never knows, do one?
Getting that seventh IV treatment is not going to force me to change my escape plans, um… flights. Now I just have to find out what it’ll cost. Wonder how much they’re going to stick me for?
