The bitch is back, but...

OK, just shortly the bad news: my state went down down down since 1 pm today. I also found out, why my teeth have been aching these days: because I am clenching them half the day, while under the bitch's pain.

The good news: I had a first half of the week where there was hardly any bitch. I sent out some job applications again (unimaginable 2 weeks back yet). I have a few hour long window every morning now, where I am able to concentrate. I am still not sure if I am in a state where I should attend a job interview though (neither is my doc).

Yesterday I had a last minute email from LCBasel, saying they needed urgently a photographer. I made it to the Rhine on time and had a wonderful evening taking snaps and having a beer after the LCM. One of them had the idea of using a globe as a theme for all portraits: it came out great!

They were very grateful for my work, I was grateful for them keeping me busy - and of course the bottle of wine that I received as a gift. Someone actually asked me, if I was allowed to drink given my state and medication. Well...

Of course my doc said I should be careful. In practice this means, that usually I drink two beers in the presence of Tristan who is a doc himself anyway, so nothing can happen. On a more serious note: I am being careful (ignore KickOff).
The doc also advised me to be careful when driving a car. Well, I never had a driver's license, so I am not intending to. I ride the bike of course.
"Maybe also there you should be careful, otherwise you might ignore a red light or similar while driving under medication."
"I actually ignore red lights even when sober and/or healthy." I answered. The doc remained silent.
In a nutshell, my life is hopefully getting as normal as it can become under the given conditions. And last but not least: If tonight my bad state does not worsen more and I don't have to call the emergency line, I will have a beaten the 13 day record. Take this bitch! Your hostage is getting ready for an escape.
