The secret of my success

Apr 09, 2011 13:21

People have compared me to the Energizer Bunny.  But the truth is, as Delia once pointed out, that I have on ON switch and an OFF switch, but no Dimmer.  And today, I have either a headcold-coming-on, or that thing I get where I'm utterly convinced I'm getting a cold - sore throat, slightly runny nose, and really really tired -  which sometimes is actually a cold, but sometimes is just exhaustion masquerading as a cold so that I will be nice to it and take it to bed.  Does anyone else get this?  It happens to me a couple times a year.  I know it's not a cold when it doesn't get any worse in 24 hours.

Yes, I will take my echinacea & my zinc anyway, because who knows?  But I will Lay Low for the day, and type less if I can.

In other news:  My goddaughter-in-law (Delia's actual goddaughter, a very nice gift of her best friend from first grade), now a sophomore(?) at Wellesley, tweets that she just found this portrait of me - the one in my icon -  in Boston's MFA!  Pretty hilarious that I lived in Boston all those years, and don't think I ever saw it there - I thought it got it off the internet.  ETA:  Here she is!
