So Blogathon is coming up.

I'd signed up and everything. Got two donors through the Blogathon site. Which is back up this year, because the 'Thon's official, which would make it easier to advertise, get donors, etcetera.

But I hadn't done any advertising. I was waffling on what to do for my usual 'Thon writing project, made harder by the fact that my writerbrain is utterly dormant. And, well.

I've been nebulously sick for six months plus. Constantly congested and fatigued, physically and mentally, with other problems rotating through. (Most recent? Wracking cough.) I've seen my doctor twice about it, and she just gives me antibiotics and tells me to go away and lose weight. Sure, maybe I'm too fat, but I suspect the problem lies elsewhere.

I can barely make it through a normal day on eight or ten hours of sleep. I'm not going to make it through Blogathon.

Yeah, I feel scummy. And I'm very, very sorry. And I feel even worse because there are folks doing Blogathon, including good friends of mine, who have worse health trouble. But I'm just...wiped out.

Blogathon next year. Once I find a better doctor. I hope.

Don't elect me governor of Alaska, y'all.

Ah, so this is why you've disappeared off the 'tubes. You are missed. I strongly recommend, as someone above said, that you hie yourself to Mt. Auburn. There are some really amazing doctors there.

Take care of yourself. *hugs*
