My aim is to write about my interests, not my personal life, but for the time being, as everything is happening at once, my life has become my main interest. If I don’t document all this, I might appear to suddenly become a different person to my more distant readers. I’ll start with today, go backwards until I get to where things were more normal, then go forwards until things are normal again.

I am back at my childhood home, possibly for good. We’re worried about a norovirus infection my sister contracted in morbid circumstances, so for the time being everyone’s trying not to touch each other. I wake up in the night, needing to urinate. I plant my feet at the side of the bed, get up and swing the hard part of my ankle right into a sharp corner of the bed. It hurts quite badly.
Having hobbled to the bathroom and done my business, I suddenly come over extremely woozy. In fact I suddenly notice that I’ve almost fallen down, supporting myself with my hand on a counter and my knee on the toilet. I don’t quite pass out, but feel very confused, as if a lot of time had suddenly passed. I steady myself and sit down on the side of the bath. For a while I feel okay again, then next thing I know I’ve slumped backwards into the bath and can’t get out right away. Perhaps I’ve suddenly come down with fever from the norovirus. Anticipating vomit, I wrestle myself out of the bath and lie on the floor for a while. I get chilly, but that’s probably just because it’s cold. Eventually I start feeling better, although with a very painful ankle now, and make it back to bed. Vivid dreams in the night..
oh dear :( _

I’ve been wanting to offer my condolences, but haven’t been sure what they’re worth, given that I’m a guy you only know on the internet. Life really sucks some times, but I hope yours will suck a lot less in the future.

Oh hey, they’re definitely worth something. And thank you. Sorry I didn’t respond for a while, I kind of dropped out of the Internet there.
