I'm just a cock-eyed pessimist

I don't thin I'll be ordering the chicken salad with warm Italian vegetables from Pizza express again.

Currently still have stomach cramps and am researching how to treat myself, thus up and on the computer.

Well, after being up at 1 -2 -3 - 4 - 5 and 7, I managed to settle down for a long winter's nap at 9 AM.

And I just woke up.

I am three pounds lighter than I was yesterday. J bought me some rehydrating salts and I've had some of those. I may have some food when I figure out how to interpret the signals my stomach is giving me.

The ballet last night was great - it really got through my exhaustion. In retropsect, I'm glad it was a short show and that I was home at 11.

Now I'm going to call the environmental health department for Camden and let them know about this.

I was far too sick to say anything about this yesterday evening, but the ballet last night rocked my socks off. It's taken me almost three hours to write it up (as I have no energy), but I've finally got my review of this show (the Kirov ballet doing a Forsythe program) up. Now I can go to bed for a while longer and see if I can keep the rice gruel I made down.

Wow, I lost four pounds in 24 hours. What a joy.

I just had a little dinner of some rice soup with an egg whipped into it.

Being on the computer seems like hard work right now, even just watching YouTube. I think I'll lie down and see if I can find a position where I have enough light to read.

I'm at page 280 with Proust and he is being amazed by how much social circles can change over time. I should be done soon, but not tonight.
