Not Feeling It
Mar. 25th, 2025 10:49 amYesterday, I got the pnuemonia vaccine.
I don't remember vaccines kicking my ass the way they do nowadays, but, man, oh man. I was wiped out last night and this morning. Worse, despite feeling like I was hit by a truck, I slept really badly. I had chills and body aches. It was weird. Although to be fair, I have NOT gotten sick (knock on wood!!) since March of 2020. So, it's possible that my body is overcompensating for the lack of anything better to do, you know? The antibodies are in there, like some scene from Cells at Work, and just going to town on the innocuation because they're so bored, otherwise.
(Again, universe, I am not asking to get sick!)
I was supposed to record another episode of Mona Lisa Over Pod with my co-host today, but he begged off yesterday saying that he'd fallen down a research rabbit hole and wanted time to organize his thoughts. Given the state of me this morning, I was just as happy to say "yes, let's just record next week."
I should have gone to my writing accountablity Zoom instead, but I didn't.
Just generally not feelin' it, I guess?
Which is weird, in a way, because the writing has been generally going well. I was very inspired by one of my writers' groups and spent a lot of last week and this doing some revisions and making some forward progress. (This is the sequel to Welcome to Boy. Net.) But today just.... I dunno. My head still feels half empty, I guess. Hopefully, tomorrow will be better all around.
How's by you?
