Hung out for awhile with Mr Fox and had a long rambling conversation. I get the scoop about the secret inner workings of Half Price Books from him, so I seem most informed at my interviews. We grumped about our least liked activist organizations, and the foolish things they do.
Later I ran into Clockwork, of State of unBeing. A friendly, wonderful gent. We talked for a little while about Prague and Florida and scary tourists before I left him to his studies.
Thanks to the patience of my doctor, who saw me on quite short notice, I have some antibiotics and super strength cough syrup. Soon I will stop hacking like a tuberculosis patient in a Russian prison. Tuberculosis is quite bad in Russia, from what little I've read. The nasty thing about it is that if you don't complete the treatment, or do it halfway, it often becomes resistant to the drugs, and mutates. The CDC speculates that thousands of mutations could exist. All it takes is one person on a trans-Atlantic flight and 72 hours to spread it globally.
