* "Just One Day - 2winz² (Official Video):"
* I woke up with the spins Friday from a clear case of labyrinthitis, so I basically stayed up long enough to do the essential things, then went the hell back to bed. I used to catch this periodically when teaching, and really the best thing is to stay hydrated and sleep. I intersected with Squirrel Saturday morning and his reaction was disproportionate enough to legitimately confuse me.
Turns out he likely had it earlier in the week and had been quietly trying to work out if he should see a Doctor under the belief that it might be a reassurance of the serious health situation that nearly killed him the Winter we moved to this apartment. So he had a lot of feelings about it being a 48 hour virus I considered an unpleasant periodic nuisance.
So odds are he gave it to me. We all wear masks when Caregiver Millennial is here, but I have already informed him he may have been exposed just in case and told him to take the weekend off.
I was well enough today to may from scratch soup. (All I had yesterday was emergency soup and some forage fruit.) Soup figures heavily in my labyrinthitis stay hydrated response. I also managed to sort and put away the non-perishable forage, most of which was zero use, but there was a soup ingredient in one of the boxes, so bravo there. (Very little food is wasted. I let the millennials have whatever we can't use, which was about 2/3rds of what they sent this week. The perishable boxes were better and luckily turned up just before I went to sleep Friday when i was still merely under the weather instead of staggering like I was drunk.)
Anyway, I was upright and hydrating when I wrote this, though I sense a nap in my future. I feel generally crappy, but a reasonable amount for day two and I'll likely be as okay as I get with the other health stuff going on right now by Sunday evening. It's unpleasant, but quick and non-life threatening as long as one avoids things like stairs and operating heavy machinery, which is so much better than a lot of the things I catch.

* I woke up with the spins Friday from a clear case of labyrinthitis, so I basically stayed up long enough to do the essential things, then went the hell back to bed. I used to catch this periodically when teaching, and really the best thing is to stay hydrated and sleep. I intersected with Squirrel Saturday morning and his reaction was disproportionate enough to legitimately confuse me.
Turns out he likely had it earlier in the week and had been quietly trying to work out if he should see a Doctor under the belief that it might be a reassurance of the serious health situation that nearly killed him the Winter we moved to this apartment. So he had a lot of feelings about it being a 48 hour virus I considered an unpleasant periodic nuisance.
So odds are he gave it to me. We all wear masks when Caregiver Millennial is here, but I have already informed him he may have been exposed just in case and told him to take the weekend off.
I was well enough today to may from scratch soup. (All I had yesterday was emergency soup and some forage fruit.) Soup figures heavily in my labyrinthitis stay hydrated response. I also managed to sort and put away the non-perishable forage, most of which was zero use, but there was a soup ingredient in one of the boxes, so bravo there. (Very little food is wasted. I let the millennials have whatever we can't use, which was about 2/3rds of what they sent this week. The perishable boxes were better and luckily turned up just before I went to sleep Friday when i was still merely under the weather instead of staggering like I was drunk.)
Anyway, I was upright and hydrating when I wrote this, though I sense a nap in my future. I feel generally crappy, but a reasonable amount for day two and I'll likely be as okay as I get with the other health stuff going on right now by Sunday evening. It's unpleasant, but quick and non-life threatening as long as one avoids things like stairs and operating heavy machinery, which is so much better than a lot of the things I catch.
