maybe my genes are being upgraded

...

Or narcolepsy has struck. I have been a sleeping machine for a couple weeks. I thought maybe I was perking up yesterday, but, well, not so much. I have noticed that in the bastions of Out There people are positing genetic upgrade every time their rhythms get wonky. It beats the dying kidneys scenario all to heck.

There are some real pitfalls to this brain fog thing. I've been merrily popping ibuprofen like candy to keep down the inflammation thing, not concerned remotely about kidney damage. The light only poked through for a moment a few days ago. So... but... well... better late than never... and I stopped taking those a few days ago. I am hoping this will help repair at least some of the problem.

I don't want to go back to the local euthanizer.
