i.am.alive.

last tuesday, while i was teaching my second class, i suddenly became lightheaded. i can pinpoint that moment as the beginning of my sickness. what followed afterward was a nasty 3 day onset of the worst case of chills, fever and body aches i have ever encountered. i hope to all the gods of the universe that i never see such a debilitating stint of sickness.

let me tell you folks, there's no such time as when you're sick to realize how lonely it is to be away from your family. i am very grateful to my sweet sweet friends who, despite their own busy schedules, found the time to nurture and support me with affection, food and water. i am lucky and i know it. i am so thankful.

it's springtime and i am alive. it feels good to be here.
