briefly music, then whining
May. 6th, 2008 11:08 pmWhy can't I write music faster? It's frustrating. I've got this great intro to some song and it just kind of stops there. I know what kind of thing I want to happen next but it's not well defined and it's sitting out there, hiding behind a curtain and mocking me.
Also, I'm worried now about my flutes being infected with something, just because every time I've started to get better I've started practicing flute again and gotten sick again. So now I'm all wigging out on 1) okay, I've been feeling better, am I going to get something else now? (If you're wondering, I've never had anything like this happen in my life, and I've never been sick anything like this long, and it's really getting to me; I normally miss all the winter bugs entirely), and 2) have I infected my flutes somehow? Is stuff growing in them?
So I scrubbed them out on Sunday in ways pretty not good for bamboo - and then hit them with rubbing alcohol for good measure. This was after I'd been on antibiotics for over 48 hours again, so I should've been clean. And I started playing them again a little on Sunday and a little on Monday, and after feeling pretty okay Sunday and Monday, today the side of my mouth kinda hurts (the left side, towards the back, like my gums are irritated) and tonight my throat complains a little when I swallow. But I've had these flutes before when I've been sick and nothing like this has happened, plus, c'mon, water, detergent, alcohol. They should be clean.
But regardless, what the fuck? I've been sick enough to really feel it most days since Norwescon, which is to say, the Thursday before Easter, which would've been March 20th. It's May 6th. What is this bullshit?!
I should have antibiotic in my system for another five days, btw. So says the doctor. Which won't help if I get to have another round of Some Dumbass Viral Thing. Which this will of course be.
Or, hopefully, I'll wake up tomorrow and be fine. Anna's finally feeling pretty normal, and she got this chain-reaction clusterfuck three weeks before I did.
