Stoned by Vertigo

I woke up yesterday with vertigo. Dizzy and not stopping. Crazy.

By noon, I was seasick and tired -- but so what? I just stopped moving.

Kathy and I got to the doctor by 4pm -- I've got Vestibular Neuritis ... not as dramatic as it sounds. The nerve between my ear and brain is inflamed in some way -- so I get dizzy until the inflamation goes away.

Maybe God wants me to sit still and write -- I think so. I'm flailing around with other things -- lost a bunch of money in the market in one swell foop because I tried something I didn't understand ... but again -- so what?

I'm sitting here, music in head, bound to the ground until I get over the ear thing -- which could be days, could be weeks.

Nothing to do but write, and then write some more. I think I'll enjoy it. Or not. Who cares?

Like I have a choice -- gotta do what the man in the sky says -- so write I do.

Meanwhile, the vertigo makes me feel weird -- I'm definitely in a strange brain space. Gonna try to get to the office tomorrow -- that should be amusing.
