#after 2.5 years of caution and masking everywhere; i tested positive for covid on wednesday morning (first day of fall semester) 😔
#at earliest; i can be back in the classroom on monday
#wednesday itself was an absolutely horrible 24 hours (but admittedly the anatomist side of me has been going 'ah! physiological data!')
#but thursday and friday were a grim indicator of how much capitalism has rotted my brain
#because after getting through 24 hours of a MASSIVE illness with undetermined long-term effects; i felt compelled to return to the
#6-hr-sleep 18-hr-waking cycle that i was accustomed to; out of GUILT for falling behind in work
#(note: i was NOWHERE near 100% back on thursday. i could have charitably been put at 50% - still headaches & fatigue & productive coughs)
#a friend had to very sternly tell me 'you cannot solve structural problems through constant 80-hour-week heroic measures'
#'you especially cannot do this when you are recovering from a debilitating illness which has the potential to remain a -
#- serious lingering problem if you overwork yourself'
#like. gods. yeah. it's not my fault that my classrooms are stuffed to the student maximum that our union has valiantly maintained
#it's not my fault that the district only gave us one pre-semester prep day; meaning that my room & plans were left unfinished before day one
#and - even bigger; it's not my fault that public health in the US is careening into 'can we pretend hard enough like nothing's happening'
#my students will have a milquetoast start this fall semester. that is fine.
#their teacher might not be able to stand and talk for longer than ten minutes at a time
#i will do what i can. i still care about them. i am reading their introduction emails and smiling a bunch.
#but i refuse to allow myself to be consumed in order to keep this fire lit.
