Dark night of the soul
on Nov 22 in Life by Erica FirmentHi folks. It’s five am here. I’m in Gijon, Spain. It’s the morning before my conference and my cold has gotten worse. I went to La Pharmacia yesterday and tried to secure something to make my nose stop running. Medicine here is weird. I don’t recognize anything. There’s all this herbal and homeopathic stuff, and when I described my symptoms to the nice pharmacist she gave me the Spanish equivalent of Alka-seltzer with vitamin C. I’m at the point where I would sell my cat for some Advil Cold and Flu. Oog.
