the flying squirrel

Darcy Casselman's weblog. Just like old times.

still sick

Now coming to the end of week number four of Squirrel's Magic Illness. I went to the doctor today, but since they told me that the wait would be "about an hour and a half" and since I know from previous experience that I can safely double that number and be closer, I decided I'd maybe try again tomorrow morning.

Or hey, maybe tomorrow morning I'll be feeling so much better I won't need a doctor, right? Right?

I've lost my voice, so I shouldn't keep talking. Instead, I'll leave you with the words of the Buddha:

Life's easy to live
for someone unscrupulous,
cunning as a crow,
corrupt, back-biting,
forward, & brash;

But for someone who's constantly
scrupulous, cautious,
observant, sincere,
pure in his livelihood,
clean in his pursuits,
it's hard.

The Dhammapada, XVIII. *shrug*, it made me feel better about myself...
