"et, fateor, medicus turpiter aeger eram."
Sick, but not physicially.
I'm trying. Got myself a hugely-expensive new toy tonight, a decision which may haunt me for at least a year till I can repay these emotional debts. Had laughter today. Had pranks. Had friends. And more friends tomorrow night. Also had a jolly good time having some great cookery inspiration tonight - thanks for listening to my strange babblings and somewhat overly-creative menus.
Physician, heal thyself - indeed.
A load of rubbish piling up, as usual. I'm using the new purchase as an emotional wager, something to spin me (hopefully) into the usual, half-crazed frenzy of pure concentration and drive that I know I can achieve - been there, done that - but which has so far evaded me.
Oh, as a fancy touch, I inscribed the verse "primum non nocere" onto one of the new purchases. A constant reminder, perhaps, of why I'm doing this. Would have done a William Osler quote instead (Prof Low would have been immensely proud of me), but there's just not enough space.
