More on my health...

So this past Thursday after classes, my dear mother picked me up from my domicile and drove me home to Ann Arbor. Aside from spending some quality time with the Sneezes and Miss Jenny Pink, I made time in my busy social calender to visit the doctor. The visit revealed a few things. I do not have bronchitis and have not had it for several months. Instead, it would appear that I have allergies (seasonal as well as to things such as dust and mold) and these allergies are creating an asthmatic situation in my lungs. Thus, I am not nearly as close to death as was previously suspected. I am on more medications than ever...I think four is an all-time high for me although no where near as high as many people I know, especially those over the age of seventy.

This news is, in my opinion, pretty much fantastic and calls for a celebration. I think the best possible way to celebrate would be to study until my eyes fall out of their sockets and write as many papers about inane topics as possible all while preparing presentations on topics about which I don't give a darn. After this, I will take difficult tests about things that I may or may not care about, depending on the subject matter at hand. After these examinations, I will give myself ten days to relax and then I will go back to the old grindstone and take two classes for six weeks. And then I will rejoice in the coming of summer.

But for now...check out these pictures of a west Michigan spring that I took while wondering GV's campus last week.

This is the pond behind the library looking out towards the performing arts center.












Spring has sprung...













Have a lovely week!
