of nothingheads and lemongrass soup
I’m sitting in bed, sick as a dawg, and trying to concentrate on work. I don’t think I’ve been this down since I was in Sapa when I was hiking 8 hours a day in the pouring rain. Of course, I don’t think I ever recovered, because the earaches I had in Vietnam are all too familiar.
But working from home does have its redeeming qualities, such as private bathrooms, access to your fridge, and being able to lie in bed during the waking hours.
I was going to swing by some drugstores today, but I guess that will have to wait. It is a disappointment though, because I was planning on stocking up the basket with condoms, lubricants, and pregnancy tests. Oh, the things I have to do in the name of research…
If you have never read “Welcome to the Monkey House” by Kurt Vonnegut, you should. If you’re questioning me why, it’s more the reason to. I dream of nurses in purple body suits.
