I got chills, they’re multiplying…

But, luckily, my bowels have yet to lose control… I have influenza A, after a second day off (not in a row) and a doctor’s appointment this afternoon. The parts of the quotient that add to the dilemma? One, my doctor informed me that although the CDC suggests that contagion runs for seven days, a […]

off to bed or else I might cry…

I am sick; it seems so often so far this year… I do not entirely understand it. To me, a flu is: fever, aches, chills. A cold is: sore throat, congestion and, when not tended to, crap moving into the chest… Monday, I ended the day with chills and shakes, slept through the night, got up […]

pansy is as pansy does

I have decided that I need a pansy suit. Yes, seriously…I am home sick today with something light enough but unpleasant.

the slow goodbye

My studiomate’s health has been dropping steadily for over a year now. I don’t wish to get into his details, so I will just say that after a long series of difficulties, his liver has shut down.

The sofa made me lean backward too far, which caused noticeable pain. Well, everything caused noticeable pain, as I had pinched a nerve in my shoulder […]

theoctothorpe asks:

So what music are you listening to as of late? Music is mostly an incidental thing to me; I listen to whatever happens to be playing… I haven’t bought music for a very long time (perhaps when Annie Lennox’s Diva was newly release…) as the money always seemed better used elsewhere. Also, I have this weird […]

dusting off the fancy-pants

Okay, fine, a fancy jacket, then…Last night, I attended a small gathering at a friend’s place for Mardi Gras. I decided last minute to attend, so I am glad I have been tending to various crazy costume things on the side. This jacket was done a bit ago for an odd event months back about […]
