It Lives

*coughs*

*stirs*

*looks about*

Last Tuesday I thought I was well enough to go in to work, and my coworkers set me straight. In addition, enough people looked at me and said, “Have you seen a doctor?” that I made an appointment. One Z-pack and a wee vial of eye drops later and I am conderably better.

After only two days of antibiotics I looked at some code I’d written while sick and thought, “Did a child break into my database and write this crap? How stupid was I?” This morning the answer to something in my database that’s puzzled me all month was lying naked under my nose.

I also got back to my guitar. I hadn’t wanted to contaminate it, plus I was afraid I would have lost all my skills, but it seems muscle memory is immune. I’d say my brain and body are totally back to normal, only both times I left the house this weekend it ended with me staggering around with my eyes out of focus. Probably too soon to get groceries or blow leaves.

Nasty bug. Glad to see the end of that.

  1. I seem OK. Not sick but also not well for quite a few days. Still not much energy. Friends of mine have been actively unwell and feeling bleak.
    I’m hoping we will all feel better after the election.

Comment, even if you aren’t on WordPress. Make up a name. Fine by me.
