dammit, Janet

Well, I never got to teach the class last night. A migraine came on fast and stole my night. Moreover, it made itself known to such a degree that I have canceled my upcoming trip to that conference, knowing that I can’t fly across country for a weekend and back six hours before surgery. Not like this, not in this shape. After last night, my hands shake, I’m behind even more, and the thought of six hours in a plane makes me want to throw up in my office trash can. This was a really hard decision to make, though. I am excited about this paper, even if I am not writing as much or as well as I want to be (which is also probably related to my brain turning to mush lately). I wanted to be there; I wanted to do this.

ARGH.

    So nice to see you! Just got a copy of the new lits book that you’re in and that you blogged about — nicely done, I must say. Am very impressed.

    There’s always another conference.
