I am still sick as a dog. (what a strange expression)  I spent the entire day semiconscious in bed.. though I managed to make it downstairs once  <\/span>and spent a pleasant hour semiconscious on the couch. My fever’s been so high that it’s making time pass in slow motion. It would be pretty cool if I didn’t feel so lousy. The fact that I’m able to type now is a good sign that I’m on the mend.. I hope. <\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

   <\/span>I’m in such a different space now that I was before Sam passed. I think my tolerance  <\/span>for pain and discomfort has been increased.. I mean.. after all, with what we’re going through.. the flu doesn’t even register. But it’s more than that. I find myself looking at my life with kind of an explorer’s eye now: What will that feel like ?   <\/span>How will I react.. ?   <\/span>Maybe it’s the blogging that makes me so introspective\/reflective\u2026 I don’t know. All I know id that I was able to view having fever and chills during 26 hours of airplane travel and airport waiting as ‘interesting’   <\/span>. Speaking of which, here’s a picture I took from the nest I’d built for myself under the departures screens in Chicago<\/st1:place><\/st1:city> last night. I layered every piece of clothing I had with me (which is not much) on top of me to try and stay warm. I must have looked pretty scary<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

   <\/span>Even being sick it’s SO nice being home.. I’ve missed Diane, Max and Gabe so much.. I’m kind of bummed that I am such a lump today.. but  <\/span>hey don’t seem to mind. They keep checking in on me. Diane is making sure I drink twice my weight in water a day\u2026<\/p>\n

I just dragged myself into Sam’s room where I normally do my blogging from. I’ve missed the peacefulness of this place.. Diane’s straightened it up while I was traveling. It’s very inviting.. Here’s a picture of me in here.. the only part of me that worthy of a photo at this point. <\/p>\n

Ahh Sam.. it’s so nice to be home..<\/p>\n
