Reading Leo Konstantinou's @Harvard_Press book, Cool Characters on irony in Am Fict. Bit disappointed that John M Krafft spelled "Crafft".

Very sorry not to be speaking at the C21 conference in Brighton today. Trying to be discharged from hospital.

I was warned that I might be very tired and potentially sick today after yesterday's cyclophosphamide. So far, holding up well.

Cyclophosphamide is fairly exhausting. But it has been administered.

Right, wish me luck all. Off for the cyclophosphamide infusion.

A slight delay to my cyclophosphomide treatment. Apparently it will be tomorrow morning now.

I think it is so arrogant to say that everyone who needs access has it. Sat in a hospital ward feeling anxious and it's good to have OA.

V grateful I can read "Short term effects of intravenous pulses of cyclophosphamide in the treatment of connective tissue disease crisis".

Thank you all for your kind words. Much appreciated.

Looks like I shouldn't have (m)any long-lasting problems from the stroke here, although they're still not letting me out quite yet.

I've been in hospital for a week now and am afraid I have had a stroke. Not sure what the prognosis is yet. Fingers crossed.

If I leave the room during television ads (hypothetical since I don't have a TV) am I running a protection racket?

Advertising is a terrible and ultimately unstable economic house of cards on which to base our media. Blocking it just exposes this.
