Hey, friends. It is your pal, Sarah. I know it's been a while since we've talked. It's been,

oh my gosh, almost a week and a half, maybe over that. I don't know. It's been a long

couple of weeks for Greg, of course. It has not been fun. So I don't want to take away any

of his story from when he's going to tell it. Let's just say this started last Saturday.

So not this past Saturday, the Saturday before that.

And the first trip to the ER for him was that Sunday, which led to many more, all kinds of stuff happening with his back.

So he had to take all last week off work, which he, of course,

is unhappy about for a cavalcade of so many reasons. Of course, he hates missing work. He, you know,

hates the way he feels because he feels awful. And, um, you know, it's just not, it's not a great time for him so that being said he

came home tonight to try and do a podcast and uh and so he got here before me i just walked in

the door probably about 10 minutes ago and um i looked at him he was passed out face first on the couch in all of his

work clothes, like his backpack still attached to his arm, kind of like moaning in his sleep and like

kind of grabbing his back. So I don't, this is very frustrating and very upsetting to see somebody who I know who I know cares about you all so much and cares about his job and

you know it's just it's rough I just I don't feel as much as we wanted to do a show tonight.

I just, I would feel guilty to wake him up after he's had, you know, an eight-hour workday

with a two-hour there and back commute to ask him to sit and do the show.

He's just not feeling whimsical.

And I know that we all know that sometimes in our lives, that sometimes you just don't, you know,

you want to be happy and, you know,

and make other people happy.

And right now I think I'm making this call.

He's asleep.
