I’m a Magpie
So I was supposed to go into surgery yesterday. Unfortunately, though, my insurance won’t cover this whole shebang until January (when, apparently, it’ll cease to be a pre-existing condition), so here I am, out in the world, neither hooked to a morphine drip nor free of my schwannomic influence. Alas. (It just occured to me that I could start blaming my schwannoma for all sorts of things. “Excuse my absence from work today… I am under a schwannomic pall… What? I must pay for these groceries? But my schwannoma, it is hungry). Anyhow. I’m kind of sad not to have this all done with, but I can’t say that i regretted not being in surgery yesterday (though I was in an odd mood, like perhaps I really shouldn’t be around at work and in class. And I slept til noon, perhaps in protest). |
I'm a librarian. Special skills include dog charming, brochure writing, slapdash cooking and long-winded nattering. I also enjoy watching the sunset's reflection in the tall buildings downtown.
For a while there, I taught classes on Classical literature, philosophy, and the history of religion at New College of California. I have an MA and an MFA in Writing, and live on a boat in Sausalito, CA.

i still can’t wait to see if it really looks like an upside down e.
…if it starts eating your homework, it’s got to go.
