I did my first round of chemotherapy on Monday. David knows about all of the tests going on.

It was me, David and one phone line. David was up here on Labor Day answering phones. People would call up and say, 'This sounds like David' and he'd say, 'Uh, yes sir.' Then they'd say, 'I remember that 5-wood you hit in Atlanta.

David has always been kind of a back-page guy and this year he's been front-page stuff.
days few four hit three worse
I thought I breezed through it. It hit me a few days later. You do get tired. Will it get worse after three or four months? I don't know.

It's funny how insomnia has a way of hauling faded memories up from the cellar of the mind, unearthing buried bits of nostalgia from deep within and spreading the broken, jagged pieces out in front of you like a display of junk at a garage sale. It makes you feel cheap and guilty when you didn't do a thing in the world to kindle the dull burn in your veins or the sting in your eyes. Some nights the painful past unexpectedly pushes up through the floorboards like an ugly nightmarish weed, and by doing so, cultivates and nurtures an entirely new species of headache.

When you write, produce, engineer and mix everything yourself, it tends to take a long time to do anything. And when you're a perfectionist little monster, it makes it even harder. But it's a blast and I wouldn't trade the opportunity for all the ice cream sandwiches in the universe.
