Under the Weather

S   l   o   w.

POUNDING.

Lethargic.

Grumpy.

Very.  Very.
Tired.
There isn’t a textual conceptualization available for that.

Zzzz.

Could be nothing.

Could be the 19 of 28 (days) worth of travel.

Could be a total lack of interest.
In anything at all, at least anything current.

Take for example, being awake.

Could be some 83 unopened, unresponded, unresolved emails.
84.

Could be worse then any of that.

Then you’d be sorry.

Could be some sort of early onset, irreversibly terminal, manic and maniacal, super severe, absolutely and inarguably debilitating depressive disorder manifested in advance of a complete emotional impasse.  The resulting toxic materialization from extended periods of impersonal psyche exclusions.
And denial.

Could be an actual conversation anywhere:

“It’s going around”

What is?

“Something nasty.  That’s probably what you’ve got”

Got what?

“What’s going around.  Everyone’s getting it”

Who?  What is?

“Look around…”

I’m just tired.

“That’s one of the symptoms.  What other symptoms do you have?”

Symptoms?  Really, I’m just tired.

<Condescending nod – squished up lips – eyes transitioning to tight squint>

And…I have a bit of a headache…

“Yup.  That’s what you’ve got.  It’s what’s going around”

What should I take for it?

“D’know.  D’know.  I think, maybe, just let it run its course.  Take it easy.  Get some rest”

Kinda useless fucking advice isn’t it?

“Yup.  But I’m not an expert”.

Could be anything.

Could be allergies.

TO BE CONTINUED…

   Sleepy Hollow, great movie for this time of year. Needs more cowbell though.

   I just got a vaccination for what’s going around. Not sure if it means I now get it, won’t get it, will get it but at least will have read the book, or if I get credit for coloring outside the lines.

   Rest in Reeces

   Probably the ebola virus… Or maybe tuberculosis.

   One word, Motrin.
   And of course lots of fluids, fluids without alcohol.

   I thought beer was fluids? least the kind that entered and left the body within minutes… I thought flushing all the bad out of ones system is the way to do it?

   maybe it’s what the people at the office have that’s going around… overworked, overtired, underpaid… symptoms…
