| I've found that I sound best with still photos of me playing the banjo. |
It's been a rough couple of days but the worst is over. I got back from the hospital on Thursday, had a miserable night of side effects, nausea, rashes, coughing, fever, severe acid reflux. But now, it's mostly back to normal and time to pull out the banjo!! I love the banjo. I know I'm not supposed to. My degrees are in music (Bachelors and Masters) but I can't help it. I still like the banjo.
I'm pretty sure people around me also like it because they all seem so polite whenever I start playing. If I'm in line at a barbecue and just pick up my banjo, everybody gets out of line and lets me go first. When I practice it on the roof of my building (which is a very popular place) the other tenants must sense that I need alone time because they leave almost immediately. When I play it in my apartment, tenants on all four sides bang on their walls. I think they're trying to keep the beat but they're really bad at it.
As for the treatments, I'm receiving daily shots to boost the output of stem cells so they can be collected in just a few days. That means my white blood cell count will be near zero next week and I'll be avoiding human contact. They say playing more banjo may also help with a self imposed quarantine.
