Sparklehorse
I know I know…I haven’t posted in forever have I? Let me tell you about how I’ve felt he last few weeks. Coughing until I was in danger of fracturing ribs, four medications including two different inhalers, bandaging up my rib cage every day and night, soreness, nausea…such is the world of Pertussis AKA Whooping Cough and if you are going to just laugh it off and think you’re immune because it’s something only children get and you were immunized way back when as a wee thing, think again. Apparently, those immunizations for Pertussis that we all are so very fond of as children don’t really extend their protection into adulthood. And, if you’re an old woman like me (I’m 28), you missed out on the adolescent booster shot.
But now, I am much better and thinking of the summer….I have no idea why really as it’s freezing cold and snowing like a madman speaks tonight. I am curled up like a cat drinking chamomile tea and editing photos from Lollapalooza. It’s a Wonderful Life, people and I don’t mean the Jimmy Stewart film. I mean Sparklehorse. I’m feeling it…I don’t have Cancer and I’ve gotten so much better. I hope your life is going just as well.

Funny you should write about this…. last night I was pretty much desperate, and as the day comes back I start to think it’s not that much of a big deal. I hope you’ll get rid of that disease very soon.
