What a nice day! It was really hot out like 96 as I passed a bank on the way home today so I can only believe it broke 100 today. Then again this is Minnesota and it could snow a foot tomorrow. I started my first day at the Bloomington Gustave Larson and it was quite the experience. They pretty much dumped all of the compressor warranties on me and told me to go to town. I also decided to pick up the phones and help customers too. Screw getting used to my surroundings. I must say so far it is much different than the Madison and Plymouth branches. Not as busy and the atmosphere is waaaaaay looser. Brian is a pretty good guy he just expects me to show up when I can and take care of business. That was my expectation as well. I ran into a salesman Byron Schlager who remembers me from Plymouth then as all of the old time employees say, "how is you're dad doing?" Dad I am serious it never ends damn you for being a popular guy back in the day. the other funny thing was when people either got my e-mail or heard through the grape vine that I was in Bloomington they gave me a call. It was nice to know that I am apparently working my way up the Nuoffer popularity contest (Cousin Laura, don't be jealous of us). Then of course my buddy George had to give a call at 4:59pm and try to heckle me a bit. I must say to you George when you use you're phrase Bubba in the first sentence it gives you away. hahaha!
I still don't know what is going on at the Hospital with my appointments. I am going to call over there and throw a fit. Dr.Skubitz is apparently the hardest specialist to get in to see. My first reaction was well that is great that is why I kicked everything off about 5 weeks ago. My second reaction I dont give a shit lets set up the PET scan and CT scan and have them ready for when Skubitz decides to crawl out of the lab. Lastly, I am going back to Dr.Leech my first oncologist who isn't the most difficult person on Earth. From the gossip bugs around the Hope Lodge it appears that I am not the only person from the Madison area being jerked around a bit. I will still say that this truly is the best option for myself still. Madison was way more disorganized. Hell they had 3 weeks to get all of their own notes over to another doctor in thier system and less than a mile away. I will find some way of sticking it back to them and hopefully making it better for others down the road. I am pretty much bound and determined right now.
Since I have been back the only real person I have hung out with is my buddy Topher and his 3 year old daughter. Chris and I are officially gym rats together. I made it official with my signature at LA Fitness. The one we go to is in New Brighton. Since I can't lift he does a lift wieght lifting and I spot then we play hoops and go nuts on cardio. I fell pretty good after a few days in so I just have to keep it going. Otherwise that is the excitement for now and I am taking pictures of the facility and the area this weekend. Good night everyone and GO NATIONAL LEAGUE!!!!
