So, am back from SD. Actual 72 hrs in Palm Tree Land = very nice. Dominos, food, episodes of Forever Knight, lots of sleep albeit on a somewhat hard floor, general relaxation and an extremely comfortable couch.
24 hrs of travel on American Airlines with layovers, lack of sleep and generally busted-ass airplanes with terrible service and extreme discomfort = less nice.
Cold/Flu thing that I have picked up = very bad.
Last night, something weird happened to my vision. Everything became blurry/shimmery in spots - sort of like bits of my field of vision were devolving into rainbow, oasis hallucinations. Has this ever happened to anyone? I thought that I was going blind for a while - which is of great personal fear to me. I may have had a fever at the time, as I began to catalogue my options if I was indeed going blind, and oddly, the Final Solution seemed the most sensible and attractive.*
I was very frightened.
I'm better now, though still feeling a bit weird. Have made a doctor's appt. for tomorrow.
In other news, support the writer's strike by calling the networks and urging them to comply with writers' demands in talks today.

*What an appropriate topic for an LJ post! Rest assured, I realize that in the broad light of (less delirious) day, this is less sensible than it at first seemed.
