My trip to Hawaii was a hard one because I started out with a double-ear infection. When I got back I thought I was doing well, but then woke up today with a pretty vigorous sinus infection and I'm realizing the antibiotic I'm using just ain't doing the trick. But . . . I did drag myself out of bed just in time to have my wife drive me to the local rock radio station where I taped the segment with Edwards. I was in an intense fog throughout, but seemed to perform well enough to make the producer inquire about my next piece for Esquire. It'll air Monday, they say. Have no idea how long I went. Meanwhile, I'll go see my doc and work hard to get myself in shape so I can churn out a first draft of this next article over the weekend/Monday. I am in survival mode.
