Sitting at home watching Kiing Kong on HBO Saturday night.. I was taking a
break from dinking around with creating some drum parts with using my Korg
PadKontrol and BFD (a match made in heaven) and I'm happily munching on some
popcorn, watching the part where the guys are tossed to the bottom of the
chasm .............really cool stuff wherein giant bugs and godawful
sabretoothed worms are eating these guys alive when all of a sudden I get
this wierd sensation in my throat. SHIT!!!! (thinks I), I'm starting to
catch a cold. I've got this raw, uncomfortable sensation in my throat and
I'm starting to cough........then this tightness starts in my throat and
them more coughing, and more coughing........and now my lungs are starting
to fill up with fluid and within about 3 minutes my throat is starting to
swell and I feel like I'm drowning.....soooooo.....wife unit bundles me into
car for mad dash to new hospital which is about 20 minutes out of town as
opposed to perfectly working old hospital that we have had here for years
which is in the middle of town and close to everything and
everyone.................soooooo anyway we get to the ER, and, as opposed to
the other poor schmucks sitting there in varying degrees of pain and
distress, I'm immediately admitted ahead of everyone else as I guess they
haven't encountered too many blue people that day. Well, after being poked,
prodded, hooked up to heart monitors, stress tests, Albuterol treatments and
who knows what all else, they still don't know what caused this. My heart is
fine (which, I'm told, is a good thing) but I have a hiatal hernia,
cholesterol levels are a bit high and some other levels could use some
improvement so I'm going to have to alter my lifestyle modus operandii a
bit...'cause I'm 56 and no longer invincible. Actually, I haven't been
invincible since I was 40, I just didn't know it.......................but
it's sorta scary that one minute I could be my old perfectly functioning
self and the next, I could be turning blue. Perhaps I didn't have enough
coffee Saturday morning? Well, I'm home now and the Cubase project I was
working on Saturday night hasn't crashed (something that would have been
impossible with those damned RME cards) so I guess the Pulsar cards are,
indeed, extremely stable and I can take some comfort in the fact that at
least something was learned this whole wierd 36 hours.
Maybe I need to reload my drivers?
;o)
