I'm okay. Now recovering from viral pneumonia, but I'm on a huge tub of meds and after just one dose I'm feeling amazingly better. D13 is also sick with something viral, but doing okay. I've been working ('cuz, y'know I still have a pulse so I'm expected to be there) but sacking out in the evening.

Hey, that's a lot better than making me work in a school with an apparently active case of H1N1! Viral pneumonia isn't all that contagious--basically just bronchitis gone bad. Once I get off the prednisone (early next week) and am assured I'm not crazy, I'm taking this a step higher because it should never have happened!!

There are whole stretches of time when everything seems just absurd, when my life seems like a poorly written novel, when I feel not just invisible but truly wonder if this is some altered state of being I'll wake from someday and find my life is more the way I remember it. How did it take me 53 years to lose all connection? No emails for 5 days (no one needs my advice), no facebook replies for...weeks, no phone calls for well over a week. I see people at work--when they need me professionally. I've stopped contacting friends because it just hurts to consistently get the message that their lives are too full and too busy to take time for a cup of coffee with me. When does life begin again?
