I had intended to translate another chapter of the Tao de Ching for you today, but I just don’t have it in me today. I’m not sure if I have a pseudoexacerbation or an exacerbation going on, but I certainly feel like crap. Both feet are numb and have the pins and needles feeling going on, and I have had a few seizures today.

Altogether, today hasn’t been awful, though. I am reminded of something I long forgot, and that is the true meaning of the word, “buffet,” which is “to pick up someone else’s cold by sharing food with them.”

In other words, next year’s birthday lunch will not take place at Osaka Grill and Buffet. 🙂

That being said, I’m going to go back to laying down and being less perky.

At least we’re more than halfway out of the dark.
