Being Patient In the Waiting Room

I didn't have a panic attack. I messed myself in an effort to maintain/build fitness while being sick. The tightness in the chest is still hanging around. I went to the doctor, got checked-out, my chest x-rays. . .According to him, I have RAD. I think he had to come-up with something since his tests proved negative. My x-rays show nothing, and I'm getting plenty of 02. But something is wrong. I am awaiting referral (HMO) to a pulmonary specialist. I am feeling better and better each day, but I still can't run . . .since that fateful trail run last Tuesday where I ran up a 20% grade (easily) with a chest cold. I think I freaked-out my lower respiratory. I just hope everything is okay. Today I spun on the trainer and felt good despite the little tightness in the chest. Weird. Bummer.

Drinking a Leffe belgian blonde abbey ale. Really nice.

I can't wait to watch the Chargers this weekend put the Jets away.

I would like to see a little scare followed by a definitive win. 31-17.
