Physical....

Well I went to my first physical here in Japan. I have been to hospitals sick and such but this was a first for me. It was a little crazy for me. This was a company sponsored physical. So basically the clinic seemed to do just physicals for company employees. It was more like a health factory or physical factor instead of a health clinic. I mean there were a ton of people in line going from one station to the other. Basically we stripped down and put a robe one. Then went and did a series of tests. They tested almost every basic thing. I mean they checked my urine, my poop. my stomach, my lungs, my blood, my eyes, my ears, blood pressure and heart beat and other things. I have never done so much. A little different in the US. But the biggest difference is when they checked my stomach. I had to drink that white thick mixture of something that tastes like glue so they could check my stomach. It was terrible!!! Anyway.... pretty interesting to say the least. But all in all I think it was a good check. I don`t get any results for maybe at least a month. The funny thing is that I return to the US next week and have a physical scheduled with my family doctor.... so I guess I get two this year.... but its ok. Actually it will be interesting to compare. But my family doctor knows all about me and personally knows my medical history. Its a very different system in the US. So I am always more comfortable going to him.

Well even though I have not received my results yet I know one thing.... I got to stop eating ice cream....hehe.

I want YOU!!!

Its been a week now but still can`t get over the Wimbledon finals. What a match!! I was really happy to Nadal finally beat Federer on something other than clay. He has really improved his game this year. So I think more good matches are to follow for these two.

I was able to take my ball machine to the court today and hit some balls for a couple hours. It was so hot I thought I was going to die. I can`t beleive the heat today. But it felt good to finally get and and do something.

The last 2 weeks have been really busy and I think I have put in a new record for hours worked. I put in almost a full week of straight 16 hour days. I have worked the last 2 weekends and today finally today had a day off. So I was able to just relax and get some things done around the house. I think this hell should be over in the next couple of days and maybe just maybe my life can get back to normal... (whatever normal is these days...)
