But Looking Marvelous Would Be Nice Too: Inching Back to Normal


Billy+Crystal+-+You+Look+Marvelous+-+12%22+RECORD-MAXI+SINGLE-524011My previous post generated an outpouring of love in a variety of forms—compassion and empathy, mainly, and also soup—so I feel compelled to offer an update. Here it is.

Great news! I’m back to my usual state of feeling better than I look! I’ve had three consecutive, fairly “normal” health and energy days. I am hopeful this trend will continue and that when I return to work next week I will feel fully recovered from my July 23 Colorado summer vacation heart attack. (No I was not a ganja tourist. I do not smoke. Anything.)

That is all.

p.s. Thanks for the love.

p.p.s. My husband is my prince.

p.p.p.s. Thanks, Shouts from the Abyss, Demotivational Specialist, Negativity Guru, and friend, for the most vivid and precise illustration of empathy I’ve ever encountered, in this video.

  1. I feel like if I watch that video enough my empathy skills just might increase. When the chips are down I seem to draw a blank and insert foot in mouth. And I’ll bet you are marvelous.
