November 15

I knocked myself out today.  I worked through the morning, and went into the office (for the first time in two weeks) for a short time in the afternoon.  I figured I probably had just about enough strength to go to a sporting goods store and pick up chemical hand warmers so it won’t be so hard for them to do the fingerprick on Friday.

So I left early, and headed for the subway.  Unfortunately, instead of taking a train that would have left me at Union Square, I ended up an avenue and a half away, and with the walking and the subway stairs I was pretty tired.  But I got my hand warmers, was more efficient (Union Square) in getting a train home, and let myself collapse for a little while.  I felt I’d accomplished something much beyond what it actually amounted to.

Meanwhile, the UPS delivery left yet another care package.  I am overwhelmed by the attentions of my friends.  Thank you.
