Sick day

[403]

I've been trying to adjust from my native schedule (sleep 02:00-10:00) to one compatible with this semester's classes (sleep 23:30-07:30). It hasn't been going well, so I've spent the past two weeks chronically sleep-deprived. Now the inevitable has happened and I've got the cold that zeightyfiv brought home.

Day 1 - Sore throat, leaden fatigue.
Day 2 - Sore throat, fatigue, joint aches, vertigo.
Day 3 - ???

I can't decide whether the vertigo is irritating or entertaining.

In the mean time, have a link: The Fibershed Project is really cool. If you like crochet or knitting, you should check it out.

Vertigo sucks. I had a bout of some illness that included vertigo years ago when I was still in NJ. It was genuinely frightening and one of the nastiest experiences of my life; fortunately, it lasted less than a week. I think I took antibiotics. I hope you feel better soon.

I am staying up late looking at this Fibershed thing. It sounds like a worthwhile endeavor. I remember hearing from ABC's Made in America segment that it's virtually impossible to find American-made textiles. I peeked at the Marketplace... hoo boy. I'm all for saving the world, but those clothes are way out of my price range. Also, it's convenient for the blogger that a tank top can serve as a bra for her, but that would never work for me.
