There's not much to report. I've been plagued by extreme fatigue, sleeping constantly. Headaches that come and ago. However, the body aches and sore throat have stopped. I have no idea how long this will go on. But there's nothing to be done except wait it out ( Read more... )

We went to the Museum of Modern Art today. Museums are the only places to go where you can be around other people! We were looking at part of the permanent collection.

I'm trying to write a Jeeves story for the Work In Progress Big Bang. Jeff's working really hard. He goes into his office twice a week. I'm not happy about it. But they wanted to ( Read more... )

I was looking over my recent entries and discovered two that hadn't been posted. First, from (I think) May 19:Yesterday we received shocking news. Victor, a guy who's worked in this building for more than 30 years, died suddenly from a heart attack on Sunday. I've known him the 25+ years we've lived here. On Friday we had a nice chat. Everyone in ( Read more... )

There isn't even a scale of disbelief to all of this ( Read more... )
