Tuesday

Sorry about the alarm last blog sounded. I am fine and there hasn't been any recurrences. Just a fluke muscle spasm.

Luci and I have been making some last changes to the film. I know I've said it before, but I think we are very close if not at, picture lock! Now to try and find those finishing resources.

We're heading out to L.A. on Saturday through July 3rd for an old friends of mine's wedding in Marina Del Rey. We will be staying in Santa Monica and Venice compliments of some dear old friends. It will be my first time to California and I'm very excited. It will also be my first time flying Jet Blue, which I hear is a amazing compared to other domestic airlines.

We also recently joined the Park Slope Food Co-op It's a long time overdue having lived in the neighborhood for nearly 5 years. The food is great, the prices are super low and the work is rather easy. I'm a stock boy. Always wanted that job and now I get to do it for 2 hours and 45 minutes every 4 weeks.

What do you do when there's nothing you can do?

I had quite a scare last night. While on the phone with an old friend, I began having major pains in my chest when I breathed. I thought I had bad indigestion or something, but the pain became increaingly worse. Ten minutes later, Luci and I are in the ER and a nurse is ruling out heart and lung problems. Fortunately for me, the hospital has a poilcy of seeing the patients with chest pain and breathing difficulties first. I had an EKG and was returned to the waiting room. Best guess was pulled muscles along my ribcage. I had to take very shallow breaths to avoid the pain. After waiting for 3 hours, I checked to see my place on the list. Fifth. Translation: 1-2 more hours. We left. I went home, rubbed on some menthol and slept. My doctor doesn't answer her phone nor her email and I've resided to go sit at my desk and try not to breathe too deep. Ahh...
It's a little ironic to have "breathing" problems after I've quit smoking. Going on nine weeks now and I'm no longer using the patch. I still have little red squares all over my chest and arms.
