Early-ish this morning, I was so dramatically felled (as always) by the Covid vaccine that I thought I might never make it out of bed again to take a picture - at least, not till late ... the icicle shivers lasted from 11.27 p.m. to 1.38 a.m., and then the aching and exhaustion began ...But by the last afternoon I was recovered enough to eat a few Triscuits and even to go to a terrible, terrible documentary in Glendale - Radical Wolfe, which Alice wanted to see because of her current book project ... It was sheer hagiography, including fervent praise from both Niall Ferguson and Peter Thiel; good on Tom Wolfe's style, but didn't ever come close to anything analytic. Also - we were the only two people in the entire movie theater, which was weird.
At least I think I may be returned to humanity tomorrow. Thank you so much, everyone, for expressing concern...
I hope the cats have been good nursemaids... may the shivers pass soon!
ReplyDeleteI can't, seemingly, post a pic of Grammy sitting on me in this reply, but let me assure you - they took it in turns, and were suitably kind and dutiful (though there were no offers to make chicken soup. They'd have drunk it themselves, anyway).
