It's moments like this, when I'm riddled with the plague that I can appreciate Flesherton most. I cancelled plans with friends and retreated home for reading week. I think my dad really appreciates it. I really appreciate him. I haven't been home as often I used to be, as life is incredibly busy and there are lots of places I want to be. However, I appreciate that home is still here waiting.
It's a bit in contrast to my post the other day about loneliness. I'm not sure if it came out right: I chatted with a friend who was concerned. I guess it's hard to write about that topic and not concern someone? Anyway, I wasn't discontent or alarmed, particularly because how alone I was was under my control. Which I think is an important factor. I've had moments in my life where I felt it wasn't under my control, like I couldn't alter my situation.
Anyway, this plague. It's quite nice coming home. My father isn't really the type to make me soup any more: he doesn't really know what to do with a vegan. At least the local dairy and video bar (e.g. convenience store) was still open despite Family Day so I could get me some Halls. I used to eschew Halls, but I once bought a bag of Ricola from a Zellers to deal with a long-lasting cough. I think that lasted months. Anyway, the Ricola didn't do anything, and I was frustrated at first until I realised that they weren't cough drops but their vitamin C supplements. And thus Halls. Yeah, I don't get it either.
I'll go visit friends tomorrow and finish a bunch of research maybe. Maybe. Maaaybe. Good night.
