SICKO

I have bronchitis.
Or, as my doctor put it oh-so-clinically, "Your lungs are all full of stuff."

I just read the book A Primate's Memoir. In it, several baboons contract a nasty strain of tuberculosis that essentially turns their lungs into liquid goo. That's all I can think of right now as I cough up yolk-colored phlegm.

The upside is, I get to watch Judging Amy. See, the title has double meaning. She's a judge, or a "judging" Amy. But she's also being judged by her family and colleagues as she balances a high-powered job and life as a single parent. It's deep shit.

"your lungs are full of stuff" that's the technical term of course. just like when i knocked myself unconscious with the car door and went to the doctor. he said i "really banged the shit out of it". um... yeah. that would be why i was unconscious.

here from michele's today.
