The big, important letter

Coming home from the doctor - not Dr. Horrible, but a real one - who thinks I have bronchitis (which is a good thing; At least it’s not pneumonia), I found the big, important envelope I’ve been waiting for in my mailbox, and I forgot all about my cough. There are big, important test results inside. From the big, important test.

I’m nervous, and haven’t quite come around to opening it just yet - this is actually live blogging from the big, important event of opening the big, important envelope. A personal moment, if you will. Before I open it, I need to find a safety exit, in case the results aren’t as good as I’m hoping for, so I keep reminding myself that I was ill when I took the test. At that time there was no bronchitis, though, just a regular cold, but still. I was sick.

OK. It’s time. Still nervous, but here we go.

The “big, important” score is within the top percentile. That’s a qualifying score. Good. It’s not that big a deal, actually.

Defenestration of thoughts

It’s summer, and I’m all alone at work, almost trigging the alarm by accident, when my cough tells me it might actually be pneumonia and not the occasional cold that I’m hoping for.

Code another template. Drink another cup of hot warm dark brownish liquid. Upload another file, dream another dream, wonder how many other summer days you will spend just like this one. Procrastinate. Defenestrate some random thoughts. Start blogging.

It just stopped raining. Perhaps I’ll see the doctor tomorrow.
