I'll just hold all of you close for a bit. It has been a rough few days for people .
What Beth said.
Bonny, I'm so sorry you went through such an ordeal. Antibiotics are bad enough when you need them. I am currently celebrating my last dose of cipro, hopefully for a good long while.
Smonster, I'd love to hear a bit more. My friend is a good friend, but not normally the same sort of person I am (?? Way more woo-woo, for instance) and I'm not sure how their experiences translate to me.
Am getting coffee and going to deal with the NINETY new emails in my work inbox from yesterday. Lordy.
Just wanted to poke my head in the door to echo everyone - very glad you're home, bonny. And hope you continue to feel betterer and betterer.
And so glad that Friends From the Glowy Box were able to give you such support!

Back to work (which will hopefully stop trying to eat me, starting with my bottom...)
Friends from the glowy box are wonderful indeed.
With Christmas and New Year's past, can we think out the Easter Bunny?
My aunt and uncle sent me a save the date for their daughter's wedding. I'm trying to push back that skeptical voice in the back of my head that is saying I only got one because I ran into my uncle at a family event a couple weeks ago, and he remembered I exist. Honestly, when he saw me his jaw dropped like he saw a ghost.
Maybe his jaw dropped because he was happy to see you. I'm assuming that's why my cousin Wenty's jaw dropped and his eyes popped when I saw him at Christmas. No reason for him to have forgotten I exist, since he hangs out with the rest of the family. But we haven't seen each other in a while, and things change when time passes.
Isn't that normal behaviour for people you haven't seen recently?
There wasn't really a smile to go with it that would indicate happiness to see me.
I'm okay with me just having knocked people agog with the inability to speak for a little. Maybe I'm lying to myself, but who's it harming? I bump into lots of people after years and years of being apart. I see those faces
a lot.
My life is too short to attach negativity to them.
Everything hurts. I wish it would stop.
