Finding things out.

[zachariah]

I've said before I enjoy being sick, but thinking back I'm pretty sure I've only ever said that when I was not actually sick. So now that I am, let me amend the ridiculous story I've spread by saying I enjoy being sick when it means I can take powerful, addiction-worthy painkillers and feel like God for a while. If I'm not hurting enough to take a Percocet or better, it just means I'm chewing Ibuprofen and feeling more-or-less human-ish, which is - let's face it - not generally a warm, cozy, agreeable thing to feel like. Being sick reminds me I'm constrained by this degrading flesh, and I can't imagine a single reason I would want to spend time appreciating that.

But then, I'm grumps now, so when I get better I'll probably see something shiny and dedicate a poem here to the nobility of the human condition, or something.
