Hadn't been in jail, but...
Hadn't been in jail, but...
... I'm back home now.
What happened was... I quit smoking three weeks ago, my system went haywire, I got an "unspecified virus" in my throat (maybe the same thing that DB's wife had, no fun), went to the emergency room last Wednesday, went back the next day, they kept me in the hospital for pneumonia for five and a half days. It was quite an ordeal... I had to watch television. (I never watch tv, but I ran out of books) They did let me have the Casino in my room, which helped. Staff would come in, see the guitar, and say, "Oh, do you play guitar?".
Anyway, I am home, off of work for another week, and still not smoking. (not gonna start! I don't want to go through that again!) Maybe I can do some music to post while I am at home resting up.

I know how you feel. I've been home sick for the past 4 days :( I hate being sick. Fortunately, you had your guitar. My mom said I shouldn't play any until I got better. But when she went off to work, the mice will play. Shhhh don't tell her! Haha. Get better!

Good to hear you're home again Blindboy.
But sorry to hear you've been in the wars - hope you get back to fighting fit very quickly.
I know hospitals like to get patients out as soon as possible but their using the weapon of television viewing seems a bit over the top - probably in breach of the Geneva Convention.

Glad you are back home, Bb. Wondered how you were doing since Saturday. Everybody was asking about you on Monday night.
Talked to my doc yesterday and he said he had been treating a lot of strep cases.

Wow,
Keep hanging in there, I tried quitting many time and one didn't smoke for half a year. Then this party, a couple of beer and my wife beside smoking happened.
I was sooooo strong I could smoke 1 or 2 without a problem........ yeah *not.
Keep going strong

Glad you are better BB, sorry you had to go through that. Know one likes being sick. But, every bucket of crap has a nugget of gold in it though..........hopefully your nugget was the will to quick smoking. Great job!
