Flu
Some undergraduate students wonder: why the lectures are so regular even during flu-marked months? The explanation is simple: the teachers are having flu in the semester break. I do have it almost every year: I’ve three kids at home. When I was younger, the flu usually presented a challenge, sometimes you’d defy it and go on, there was something to struggle with: headache, splitting cough, running nose at least. Now it is boring: I just feel like a squased bug, no fun at all. The brain does not seem to be affected: I was guiding phd studens per e-mail and they did not show any unrest. So I am in full recognitionof the boredom of my existence…
This is not to complain cause I fell it’ll be OVER soon. And this is such a JOY to get back to "normal" state, the state that I normally do not notice nor am satisfied with but which is such a WONDERFUL state. Glory to God.
