[*Cough*] ...and Thanksgiving plans
Nov. 15th, 2009 12:48 pmI've picked up some sort of viral bronchitis, I think. No fever or symptoms other than nagging cough and sense of tiredness; perhaps it's consumption, and my last act scene will be to die gorgeously a la Moulin Rouge. But most likely not.
I've felt the urge to cough for a few days, but only started to feel it last night, when we went to Foggy City's excellent dance with Sandy Bryant. I made it through one Plus tip, but my mind wasn't really working, so I sat out the rest. We haven't been able to dance since Convention -- travel, illness, schedules. I feel less like a square dancer lately, a bit dissociated and finding the crowd less interesting as I have been exploring other outlets. Love'em to death, just have other things on my front burners.
I was worried about the cough because we leave next Saturday for an East Coast Thanksgiving. First we'll spend a few days in Manhattan and see museums and plays. Then we'll pick up a car and drive to PA, where Paul will be attending his 30th reunion with his high school girlfriend Kate. We'll hang out and have Thanksgiving dinner with his brothers (near New Hope, PA), then I'll drop into![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
zzbear's world for his family's celebration of his 50th birthday (requiring a jacket and tie. I'm from California, can't I wear a Hawaiian shirt and sandals?) not far from there, which should be interesting since I've never met any of them. Then I'll drive back to DC with David while Paul returns the rental car to Newark and flies back to SFO. I'll stick around DC until David's 50th birthday party, and finally come home after a bit over two weeks of traveling. Yikes, I hate traveling!
David, in turn, arrives here Dec. 12th and returns to DC Jan 17th. Further updates as they happen. We'll be leaving him home alone Dec 22-27 while we attend Christmas at my mom's in KC. Lucky Paul, he gets to meet my cousins; but at least there's good BBQ and the new wing of the Nelson Gallery to visit.
I'm tired just writing this. I want to stay home and gracefully degrade, but that may be the virus talking.
