Day 2,350: Back Baby
I’m back baby! Kinda...still easily tired. Not firing on all cylinders. Didn’t get to write today till just now...but I did write. For the first time since I got sick. Reading my book, you guys...it’s good. I don’t mean that to toot my horn in any objective way; quite...
Day 2,349: The Killing Joke
I watched The Killing Joke tonight. It was on HBO and it was short for a feature (average length for an animated movie though). I...was not impressed. It looked beautiful. And Mark Hamill is genuinely brilliant whenever he voices the Joker...but man. The Barbara...
Day 2,348: Getting There
The recovery proceeds apace. I was tired today. I took like a two and a half hour nap. I’m definitely still in the process of getting back on my feet, no doubt, and today being a day off was very much needed. Gonna do the same thing tomorrow. I...am looking forward to...
Day 2,347: omg
Omg you guys... I Feel BETTER. Like...actually better. I felt normal today, with the singular exception that I feel more tired than normal in that post-trial exhaustion way. So, not back to 100%, but I didn’t feel SICK today once. Not once. And it’s definitely the...
Day 2,346: Sick of it
Starting to get sick of being sick... It’s been a week. Two weeks, really, of feeling wiped out all the time. I’m better. Today, I really felt better. But I’m not done with it yet. I’ll still go through several hours a day of feeling achy, tired, brain-zapped,...
Day 2,345: …better
I’m feeling...better... ? It’s hard to tell, because it comes and goes. But, I think I am getting better. Finally. It’s so weird, even my nasal congestion comes and goes. Like, right now, I’m totally clear. An hour from now, I might wake up because I have to start...
Day 2,344: It’s Rough
It’s rough not being able to spend time with Liz. Close time together, anyway. We eat dinner together on the floor, me leaning up against the bedroom wall that looks out through the door into the living room, and her on the floor of the living room facing opposite me....
Day 2,343: Gentleness
I was just petting the Coops before getting into bed tonight, and just observing how much he liked it when I was very, very gentle. And it made me think about how animals will be gentle like that with each other all the time. It’s something they value, just like we...
Day 2,342: Up and Down
It was an up and down day of the sickness for me today. I woke up feeling pretty much normal; symptoms really lowered, energy levels back...and then I felt back to being sick for the rest of the day...until this evening, when I felt even better. So...I’m on the mend,...
Day 2,341: Symptoms Day 2
Okay...now that I’ve gone back and written my missing entry for last night when I wasn’t feeling well and just passed out... It’s day 2 of whatever the sickness is. I thought maybe it would be a good idea to write out the progression of my symptoms, just in case this...
