Last Thursday afternoon I left my breakfast in the wastebasket in the Computer Science lab. It's been a long time since I had anything other than a cold or flu so this was a remarkable experience. Perhaps most remarkable was that while I was heaving there were two students in the lab, so engrossed in their programming that they didn't notice. (Perhaps that is so old fashioned. More typical these days would be students engrossed by their smart phone.)
I still feel a little rocky, having difficulty swallowing, tightness in my chest, and an occasionally congealed feeling in my stomach.
It's unlikely that whatever it is will kill me, but it does lead to idle musing about something which seemed dismissible but wasn't. I think of a former director's husband who had an annoying pain in his shoulder/back which turned out to be the first symptom of the cancer which killed him.
A random mental walk.
