yet another programming note

it never ends, it seems

Hello. I am back in the hospital again. It seems the fluid in my lung came back immediately after the procedure to remove it, so we have to do another, more complicated procedure to siphon this fluid out and see - at last - what the hell happened to me to cause this. I have my ideas and mostly they are about a liver biopsy gone wrong. We’ll see.

So this is just to say sorry for the almost week long absence here. I don’t know when I will feel well enough physically or mentally to write a whole damn essay again, but I will try to at least do the Saturday “what brought me joy” post.

I always feel bad when I go a few days without writing, both because I feel like I owe it to you to produce fresh newsletters, but also because writing is what calms me and fulfills me. I just don’t have it in me, though. I am hoping this procedure will work and I will finally be free of pain and discomfort, so that is where all my energy is going right now.

Talk to you soon, I hope.
