AFib Strikes Again

Well it has been a little over a year but it happened again. After an awesome meal of German food last night to celebrate the wife's birthday and a good night's rest the wife and I took an energetic stroll this morning. Granted I am out of shape and have not trained in over two years and am seriously in need of cardiovascular exercise, but we walked very briskly for an hour.

I mixed up my soy protein shake like normal with crushed ice. After downing it I went into atrial fibrillation. This really sucks. I am supposed to have a board meeting on Monday morning then hop a plane for Dallas to visit customers. Now all that is shot to shit. I will be in the hospital getting thousands of volts shot through my body to stop and restart my heart- hopefully resulting in normal sinus rhythm. The last time i had to have the cardioversion was April 4, 2007. It lasted more than a year this time but I am taking propafenone 3 times a day. Looks like it is time for me to get serious about another ablation surgery.

The wife and I did the video on demand thing last night and watched the movie "Savage Grace" with Julianne Moore. That was one fucked up movie and what makes it worse is that it is a true story. Basically this chick is really psycho and unstable and is married to this rich dude. He leaves her for a younger woman. As a result the unstable woman latches on to her homosexual son and does 3somes with him and ends up having sex with him. If my mother looked like Julainne Moore I might consider it.

So the son stabs his mother with a knife in the kitchen and calls the cops and then orders chinese food and sits down to eat with his dead mother on the floor.

That was one fucked up movie.
