I hope whatever it is - is mild.

I'm feeling much better, but I just can't shake this dang cough..... and the dang knee still wakes me up

Thanks, @Wu Wei and @sun rise . I am sure it'll pass quickly. Just feel drained, have a headache, and swollen lymph nodes. I'll probably take a vitamin C.

I hope your cough eventually hits the road. Glad you're doing better overall, though. Sorry about the knee... hopefully that heals up sooner rather than later.

The bear has a nagging bad cough
And knee part that he had cut off
for a fancy new joint
with much soreness conjoint
so all he can do now is scoff

I was told it would be 10 to 18 weeks before the knee stopped interfering with my sleep and this is just the start of week 9

Well, in that case, I hope it stops at ten weeks! Then only one more annoying week to go!

I’m at the bar doing thesis stuff and the cutest girl is a couple tables over (it’s super dead) and I catch a glance from her occasionally, and aaaaah I’m supposed to be monogamous right now! Why does this happen (I’m going to be good)

This is kind of a serious article, so I hope it's okay to post it here, but...

This article is not quite so serious, but the only meaningless announcement I have is that I've never heard of "pickleball" before.

Knock it off! Loud pickleball games annoy some in Michigan (apnews.com)

Apparently, it's not as lewd and lascivious as one might expect from a game called "pickleball."

IRON MOUNTAIN, Mich. (AP) — Some residents in a northern Michigan community are complaining about noise during summer nights.

Rowdy teens? No. Adults playing pickleball.

Iron Mountain in the Upper Peninsula won’t restrict pickleball hours at four courts. City Manager Jordan Stanchina had suggested ending games at 6 p.m., but 20 players attended a recent council meeting to object, The Daily News reported.

Roxanne Hudson, who lives next to the courts, said she and her husband “just want to move.”

Noise from the paddles and plastic balls goes on “hour after hour” and “just drives you nuts,” Hudson told the council.

Pickleball is played on courts that resemble tennis courts but are much smaller. That’s part of the appeal.

“We’ll try to mitigate (the noise) somehow,” Mayor Dale Alessandrini said.

Scott McLure, speaking on behalf of players, said they might try quieter paddles. A 6 p.m. curfew isn’t favored because it wouldn’t give people time to play after work.

“Every recreational activity has noise,” council member Bill Revord said.

I'm carefully considering the idea of getting a job this winter, or starting to make preparations to go back to college at least.
