All That Studying, And Now I'm Going to Fail!

Tomorrow will be a full day for me. After work I have to spend the afternoon at the hospital, getting a pulmonary function test. These aren't the "blow out the candles" little machine in the doctor's office tests. No, these are the big mama jama machine tests where they stick you in a tiny phone booth of a room, stick a device in your mouth, pinch your nose off, and say, "breathe normally." Yeah, right. Last night I did a little bit of house cleaning. From experience (I'm a graduate of the University of Learn the Hard Way) I know that I cannot do too much at one time. And I didn't...or so I thought. An hour later, I couldn't breathe. So all of that studying for the pulmonary function test, and now I may fail it!! Seriously, this is a good thing: if they see how I react and the effects of being exposed to allergens they may be able to provide better treatment. Or maybe hire me a maid. The worst thing about it is that my appointment is at 4 PM, so I'll be there late tomorrow. Here's a song with an appropriate title (and, for my regular followers, take a peek at who arranged this song!!!):
beautifully sung arrangement. predates the hollies.

Warren Zevon, huh? I never would have guessed.

You may know Zevon was, for years, the honorary coroner of Pitkin County. He got the appointment by doing gigs for Phil's father-in-law, who was running for office.

Neither -- it's a pulmonary function test to check my lung capacity. They do that every two or three years to monitor how I'm doing.

Asthma. I've had it most of my life. I live in one of the worst spots in the United States for allergies, too!

Goodness, I hope they can do something to help. Although I don't like cleaning house, I like to be able to do it when I want to.
