Sunny Times

returned to work because
hiatus de la influenza 
almost over, leaving me short of breath spanning the space of the parking lots, but

Somewhere in between the floor stripper used to clean the kitchen and the open windows spiriting the toxins away I've scoured the place and listlessly been laying about.  It feels seriously good, clean kitchen floors.

It started on Friday and by Saturday/Sunday I could barely move and felt little to no appetite, a sure sign of distress, or physical distrust.  My life has been mediated through sugar and prethinking this entry I wanted to liken the day to buttercream frosting, but finito.  I missed a week of classes which I would feel guilty about except that the flu really doesn't give you any energy and it sweeps your conscience into the clouds.  I read a lot, mentally & pleasurably stocking up online episodes of Hercules:  The Legendary Journeys, making sure to stay only within the episodes containing Autolycus, the King of Thieves, or Aphrodite.  In the long run Hercules: The Legendary Journeys got a much better set and much smarter set-up than Xena:  Warrior Princess.
