Today was a pretty decent, if not altogether exciting day, although I do seem to be fighting a summer cold or allergies that have kicked into higher gear suddenly. It’s been coming on the past couple of days, actually, and is now a fun mess of watery eyes, a sneezing and runny nose, and a tickle at the back of my throat that, if I’m not careful, turns into a lot of coughing. I’ve felt worse — and I don’t necessarily feel sick — but I’ve also felt better.
Then again, I had an amusing moment via Twitter this afternoon when Kurt Andersen, replying to my compliments on last night’s reading briefly mistook me for his fellow panelist Jeffrey Ford. It’s not like there’s no resemblance, but I think it’s pretty slight. Still, there are worse people to be mistaken for, and it was amusing.
Thinking of making an early night of it, to keep one step ahead of this nagging cough and runny nose.
Heh. Well, as you say, there are worse people to be mistaken for. Kurt Andersen is a pretty nice guy – I bet he was amused by it.
Hope you’re feeling better tomorrow.
