in a desperate desire to get well...

I sat on the toilet earlier today for like an hour hoping that by excreting everything out of my body, my flu would miraculeously go away.

I did my "yojokun" of circling my upper body while sitting on the toilet seat continuously for the whole hour. ..every now and then rotating in the opposite direction so as to maximize my the amount of each excretion as it came out.

for those of you who are unfamiliar with "yojokun", you can read up on the concept in the book, "yojokun - the book of life nourishing principles - by kaibara ekken."

so, anyway, I did my yojokun circles for close to an hour.

..ugh. ..ugh. ....uggggggh. Aaaahhhhhhh!

did it help me get rid of my flu, you ask? ..since I still have this splitting headache, I guess not. but at least I am not full of shit now, right?

it's day 4 of the flu for me. still miserable, still staring at the ceiling.

got a message from the shadow. it seems he has been sidelined too for a while. broken leg in his case.

the watcher called me. he's back in town. da brain also called. my best buddy watching out for me. augusto also called me. but I think he just wanted to tease me because I was sick.

I think I'll get back to sleep now. going into hibernation mode.

later...
