DHEeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee! and TV
I am reaching the middle of my 7th day here in 8B 23. I am receiving regular infusions of DHE to try and break this nasty, persistent migraine. Amidst and between the bouts of grogginess, I have had an impossible amount of time on my hands. I have not felt focused enough to do much reading or writing, which is what I imagined I would do with all this time. I refused my dose of Benadryl this morning and voila! I feel restless and edgy, but at least now I can type without seeing double.
What have I done in those long hours? What the hell have I been thinking about?
First of all, TV and lots of it. Ugh, I actually feel dirty by the end of the day from all of it, and yes, I have been showering and putting on clean undies every day. I have made a few pleasant discoveries among the dregs. Thank you, BBC America. The Graham Norton Show is hilarious and so is Gordon Ramsey. I had never watched anything of his but the awful commercials for his shows. But he looks so young and sweet in the old episodes and he is not as psychotic as in his current incarnation. While I don’t think he needs to be so rude, I completely respect his work ethic and insistence on quality. Ooh! Ooh! Tabitha, too! Love her. They are my soul mates, those two.
Can I make a show like this, but for teachers? How hilarious and awesome would that be????? I’d be like, “Are you f#*!ng kidding me? You handed out the construction paper before giving directions? Before counting that you had enough scissors for everyone? Bloody hell!”
