Sick (Still? Again?)

Posted May 21, 2008, 5:17 p.m.

I’ve gotten lots of really interesting emails in the last few days; I’ll reply soon I promise. Unfortunately whatever bug I got almost two weeks ago now has either come back with a vengeance, or—perhaps more likely—my weakened immune system has succumbed to a separate, unrelated virus. That’s almost two full weeks now of feeling terrible, then feeling better, then feeling almost normal, then immediately feeling terrible again.

~sigh~

Anyway, I’ll probably be home from work tomorrow if I feel anything in the morning like I do right now. That will give me a chance to bang out all these interesting replies to all these interesting emails.
