note to self when well again, in perpetuity
You know, Nina, when you get really ill and you think to yourself 'fuck, health is a fragile thing, like an empty bird's egg held in a vice with the handle a hair's breadth away from turning the wrong way'? When you remember that it's not only impossible to do all the things you wanted to do, or didn't want to do but had to, because when you're ill it's impossible to do anything at all? When you can't sleep because you're coughing so much, or being sick, or your head hurts too much to do anything but moan? WELL REMEMBER THAT WHEN YOU'RE BETTER YOU IDIOT! Thanks.
Love, a weird combination of your super-ego and your conatus xx
p.s. It is ok to watch Gossip Girl when you're unwell, but try not to mention it to your adult friends, they'll be appalled no matter how rubbish you were feeling.
