Day 2,355: Weekend
It felt like a weekend today. The first one that’s felt like that in a long time. Liz and I hung out all day today and it was lovely. We watched TV together and ate food together and walked the pups, both morning and night, and we watched The Winter Soldier together...
Day 2,354: A Good Death
Listening to soundtrack music right now, and I’m reminded just how impactful a proper death can be in a well-told story. I mean the death of a character that cuts you right to the core, that feels real and makes you think about real life. And, I suppose that’s why...
Day 2,353: Animal Crossing
Liz is out in the living room right now playing Animal Crossing on the switch. She was just voice chatting with her sister, J, and her sister’s friend because they were visiting together on J’s island. It was very, very cute. Very endearing to hear them talking about...
Day 2,352: Easy Rain
It rained today. It was raining tonight, even, as we took the dogs out. But it was that light rain that you can stand in and not get instantly wet, but you can hear it and feel it. Easy rain. That’s most often how it rains in LA, easy rain. It rarely rains HARD here....
Day 2,351: Last Day
Today was my last day of taking antibiotics. I’m so happy about that. Almost happier than my flu-like symptoms disappearing 😂 I’ve never taken antibiotics like this, which make my mouth taste bitter, make me nauseous even when I’ve taken them with food, and...
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,...
