I am increasingly convinced that my “covid vaccine hangover” has overlapped with the onset of some other issue. I’m past the fever and chills problem but I still experience periodic bouts of nausea and upset stomach. I wonder if maybe I’ve just reverted to old gut-related stress-reactions (gastroenteritis) such as I suffered so much in my 20’s and 30’s. I’ve been feeling overwhelmingly stressed with Arthur lately, too. At this point, no single utterance of mine is understood on the first attempt. Yet he basically seems to take the stance that “problem belong you” (in his adaptation of PNG pidgin – meaning his not understanding me is my problem, not his), and mostly finds it amusing when he misconstrues what I’m trying to say and decides that that thing that he’s understood is more meaningful or important than what I was actually trying to say. It’s like instead of having a conversation with him, I’m just providing some loosely-structured, improvisational prompts for a neverending conversation he’s having with himself.

we read this & had to laugh – Dean said, “sounds just like Art!” it is often an issue of frustration for Dean also – quess I just cruise along in my own world. Art is Art – to an extent I feel he has always been this way. It’s just become more pronounced with age. I think it happens with all of us. hang in there – he’s planning to be in OK last half of April!! hope you’re feeling better – other than sore arms no reaction to Moderna – daughter got other one & felt like heck for one day, 2nd was not so bad. so weird now differently it affects people.
