immunity.

I came down with a cold on Friday. I probably ran into someone with the bug, who sneezed on me, touched me after coughing on their hand. I spent the next two days drinking tea, juices, yet still riding my little motorcycle through the city fog, up and down hilly streets bouncing the little blue bike over potholes, rails in the asphalt, zipping around manhole covers and obscurities unexpected. Stop-go-stop-go.

Sold Edgar, haven't finalized the deal yet, but won't ride him again. It makes me edge to the far end of my seat, hoping that the guy in Napa has time this week to figure them out, straighten all bent tubes, bits, pieces and make it solid again. Then we'll piece the RocketDog together again, and I'll be powered on the road in shining felicity.

Hope I feel better, much better, clear and sneeze-free, before boarding the plane Friday morning. Current weather: 44˚ and raining. I think it's incredibly hilarious that for my cousin's Bar Mitzvah we're staying at "Eden Theological Seminary is called by Jesus Christ to be a school of the church. Eden is called to strengthen and support the life and mission of the church by educating pastors and teachers, enlivening critical reflection on faith, and encouraging Christian discipleship." Like a good Jewish mother she's having friends and family stay nearby at the Seminary, while we celebrate the good Jewish kid entering into adulthood... Makes me laugh.

Anyway it'll be a good time seeing my drugged up post-surgery mama, and meeting the new cousin's who're probably so cute and girly, and seeing the boyz get bigger.

Bah.
