Life in late capitalism can be vexing, alienating, fragmenting, and otherwise frustrating. There are many wonderful things in my life, but I'm more likely to talk about what's bad rather than what's good. I'm going to try to post one good thing here each day, and if you would join in by adding a good thing from your day in the comments, I'd love it--I'd absolutely love it. --RR
8/31: knowing when
As soon as I woke up, I realized that no number of soothing warm beverages was going to be enough to even temporarily allay my symptoms today, so I didn't go to school and went to the doctor instead. My allergies blocked me up enough to cause an infection, and now I'm on antibiotics. I'm glad I didn't try to "tough it out"--I hate cancelling class, but in this instance it was the right thing to do. I'm grateful that I made the decision with minimal hoopla and that Chris supported it so enthusiastically.
Hope the drugs kick in SOON! Feel better.
ReplyDeleteOh dear! Get well. Or at least get well enough that you can read in bed, one of life's great luxuries.
ReplyDeleteThanks Sandy & Barbara--I feel a little better today (9/1), but I think more medicine + reading in bed is what's on my agenda for the evening!
