just pathetic

This is me this week, being plundered by a really terrible virus. It's not norovirus, turns out, but something similarly sinister. It may look like it's winning, but it's not! I'm the one getting all the sleep and the fabulous bikini-ready figure, so, joke's on you, moronvirus.

Joke's kind of on me, as well, if we're keeping score, because I did separate my shoulder last week and was quietly excited to surf the Vicodin express, but that was a total sham. They just make me throw up more.

Unfortunately, this really hit the breaks of my writing projects, since I can't look at a screen without feeling woozy. And there are some killer writing projects going on right now.

Oh shit... This is bad... When a writer is in such bad shape that it cannot even write, times are bad. Brutal even. Get well soon.

Wait. is moronvirus a real thing, or are you calling the virus a moron because in fact you are winning-ish?
