Thursday: Day 5 of My Pink Eye Saga



So today, I am still not feeling great, and this has overall felt like a day of complete debauchery. I have roamed around in my PJs, I have surfed the internet for, honestly, 90% of my day. I did send two work emails, and I spent a lot of time reading Team of Rivals. I am really liking the writing of Doris Kearns Goodwin. She is educated about her subject and seems to be a fair writer about each of her principals. Having been locked down at the house for this long, I am beginning to have the strange feeling that I know Abraham Lincoln better that I know anyone and his marital struggles are becoming personally meaningful to me.

I feel that I am walking a strange line of isolation, where the principals in my books are becoming close friends. I am very worried for Abraham Lincoln right now, and I know what happens. I know where this is heading.

Anyway, noting the course that this followed in my husband and son, I should be feeling better tomorrow. Tonight, however, I am going to take full advantage of my illness and insist that my husband go and get me a Yogurt World.
