One thing this illness has done is it’s made it virtually impossible to read or write. One consequence of this is that I am very far behind in my reading for Episode 29 of my Vacation in the Golden Age. Rather than add to my stress by trying to catch up in the next 5 days, I’m must going to push this Episode off until the next cycle day, which is December 26.

I don’t push these things off lightly because (a) I enjoy them so much and (b) I know there are others out there that enjoy them and look forward to them as well and I don’t want to disappoint anyone. However, I think I have a pretty good excuse this time. After all, I even stayed home from work today!
