A few weeks ago, I felt the stirrings of a cough within my system. Today, I feel the monster get ready to rear its ugly head into my life. I think being bit by some weird bug that has left my palm swollen might have further lowered my immunity.
Apparently when you move to the place that I can't name without swearing, you open the door to incredibly painful headaches, tummy troubles, cough cooties and extremely poor customer service. (I was catching up with a friend this weekend and rather foolishly relived those incredibly painful days. Sears!!!) If anyone objects to the unfairness of my complaints, let me appall you further. While I cannot go into serious detail about the circumstances, because it may open some other Pandora's box, something happened that is diametrically opposite to one of my chief complaints about this place. (It is not anyone that I know in Charleston, its someone that I didn't know before a certain day this week, anyway. Its me being a paranoid idiot, but really, I feel a little overwhelmed with the attention.) However, this instance feels genuinely scary and stifling. I feel like I am suffering from the "whiner's Goldilocks syndrome", there is no winning with me right now.
Ofcourse, I will always remember that my problems are nothing compared to people with issues of survival in life, finding food for one's family and all other such dismal and depressing matters. Its yet another irony that I have always struggled to understand in life, how one can get equally worked about the trivial and the important... the human mind is a funny, frail, fickle thing..
If you hate me for my shallowness etc. etc.. get in line..
Mercifully not stranded in the seaward C-word any more!!
