Fast-forward…the future! I’ve been sick for the past week and a half. I’ve been suffering from a chest cold better known as bronchitis. It would seem that the disposition to getting sick has been amplified by my asthma. Having compromised bronchiole functions often leads to infection I have read (thanks internet). It also could be that I have been sleeping far less than normal, due to early rising, late going to bed, and oh, not being able to sleep through the night due to fucking asthma. Luckily the forces we have been able to marshal have converged to 1) banish all down feathers from this abode, 2) commissioning all the local cure aides short of draping a necklace of onions around my neck, 3) a near constant feed of liquids and 4) the condemning of me to never leaving bed. All of which has put me on the road to recovery. In the meantime, Jennida has been practicing the fine art of soup cooking. Thank God for wurst! Thanks to all. I think I have become a baritone though through all this. No more high notes, not even a Michael Jackson “EHEEhhhh!”
The tally thus far:
Number of guilty trashy sci-fi/comic book movies watched- six
Number of intellectual and conceptually driven pieces of theory and/or commentary read- zero
Number of September/October entries of my blog fulfilled to satisfaction- all of them
Number of videos completed since falling ill- one (but the most important one. Gwen)
