In one day, I think I’ve hit rock bottom.<\/span><\/p>\n

Soon after my last post I started getting dizzy, and I’ve been dizzy every since. Not room-spinning-dizzy, but bad enough to make me feel lousy. Add that to my increasingly sore back, my sore backside, and I think I’ve pretty much hit rock bottom. (Pun intended? I guess.)<\/p>\n

It’s probably a migraine. Knowing what it is doesn’t make me feel any less lousy.

I hate to admit it, but right now, I just want to be in my own bed for a week or so. It’s not helping that the futon I have is as hard as a steel-coated diamond with extra concrete reinforcement.<\/p>\n

Ah well. This too shall pass.<\/span><\/p>\n
