So today has been a very quiet day. Little blogging, absolutely zero work accomplished. Why? Because for the fourth time this calendar year, I am sick!
That's right. For the fourth time in 2012, I am in bed, doing nothing all day. And for those of you who know me personally, this pretty much could not come at a worse time.
As a kid, I never got sick. Once a year max. I grew up in New England, ran outside without a coat in the winter, played on the ground with the dogs, and thought hand washing was for girls and grownups. Still, nothing. My parents' first house was older than the country in which it was built, had no insulation, and I didn't get sick. Next house? Out in the woods, still two dogs - in addition to other outdoor animals. This one was well insulated, but of course that didn't matter, because I was only indoors when it was dark out. Still, sick once per year max.
Now, after years of law school, I am up to four times per year. I am told it is stress, and I am inclined to agree. I mean, it does add up. Before then, I also had no other stress-related issues which now periodically pop-up. Go figure. Debt, poor digestion, trouble sleeping, and you get a piece of paper in Latin for your troubles. Oh wait. I still have yet to receive such parchment.
