Sick on a Perfect Day

Beautiful morning and I’m still ill. The whole weekend I barely slept, felt like a wet sack. Couldn’t make it to Becca’s cousin’s confirmation. Just sat around Sunday with nothing to do, so I kept rewatching the Wii trailer.

Nintendo was saying it brings gamers and non-gamers together, which seemed genuinely funny to me at the time. Like okay, once we have this little white box, suddenly everyone’s playing games together? I wanted it. Wanted it bad enough to keep clicking that video over and over.

Walked to the doctor this morning and it was good to be outside, moving around in actual sunlight. You know it won’t fix anything, but you go anyway. Something shifts when you’re walking outside on a perfect day.
