So I'm still sick with this summer flu. I would say the worst has passed but I still feel lousy, and basically did nothing all weekend. The only thing positive I can say about it is that the headaches and discomfort of the flu symptoms have helped me to forget some of my other chronic discomforts. It's a bit like how if you stub your toe and then pinch yourself to distract from the pain.
I really don't want to overuse this here blog thingy as a forum for complaint.
We had a hweshik (business dinner event) Friday night, bidding goodbye to a long-term colleague who is moving on from Karma. Although she is in many respects a very traditional Korean style teacher, she is one of Karma's "old-timers," and I have always respected her professionalism and dedication hugely. It is sad to see her go.
I was a zombie at the dinner, interacting even less than my normally reticent self due to cold medicine and exhaustion.
The weather has been pleasant all weekend – overcast monsoon clouds, with a little bit of rain Saturday. Less hot, anyway. My class at work was cancelled Saturday, but I was already walking there, so I got to take a bit of a walk.
Today is going to be a very long day at work.
