Week 2 Roundup: In Sickness and More Sickness

Aaaaaaaaaagh

I’ve been sick with what I thought was a cold and now realize was probably something worse (walking pneumonia is one of the plagues going around, maybe that?). I did nothing and felt exceptionally useless this week. I spent a lot of time watching the 2025 equivalent of daytime TV, which is YouTubers reacting to daytime TV. I thought Twitter was where comedy went to die. My mistake, it’s everywhere online

Feeling: Miserable, anxious, tired, phlegmey

Times I said sorry when I didn’t have to: 4

Most Unnecessary “I’m Sorry”: I apologized to my wife for being sick for so long and she was like STOOOOOOOOOP

Days Sick: 7/7 babyyyyyyyy (with today being my first “normal” day)

Exercise Goals: Bruh I was fighting for my life this week. 14% (but if it was just days I felt able to do it — 100% lol)

Writing Goals: 20%

Tissue Boxes: 2

Bottles of Cough Syrup: 3 1/2

Lozenges: More Than Recommended

Misery Levels: Like a strong consistent 7

Number of old emails deleted: A few hundred

Number of unread emails still in inbox: Over 1000

Number of emails sent because I fucked up a previous email: 5

Thoughts: Sometimes I want to curl up and hide. Go into stasis until needed. I sometimes do the equivalent of that, as much as a living person can.

Where is Confident Veronica this week? Feeling more weak this week. I’m so so tired.

Oh but I got new headshots so that makes me happy! Thank you Kevin Coffey for bringing me the only joy I felt this week lol

Harkening back to better, healthier days

I’m on the mend and being a baby, next week will be better… I hope.

Shows: Zero, but we got Judith Drugan: Lesbian Exorcist happening next week!
